Timing of Town Hall Meeting

Hello Mario

I’ve just listened to the recording of your presentation - thanks for your efforts.  You spoke well and provided plenty of important information, but it was frustrating being unable to ask any questions.  I suggest some mechanism does need to be put in place to address the issue of time zone spread, eg your call was at 4am local time for me in Australia, 2am for Singapore, 6am for New Zealand, etc.  Ideally the presentation should be done twice to allow global coverage at ‘civilised’ times.  If this isn’t possible, perhaps the opportunity/facility for ‘write in’ questions arising from viewing the recording would at least partially address the issue.  This could be done via a blog and comments, although many of our members don't seem comfortable with the blog comment process.

Regards

Ian Holmes
