Quoting Matthias Fischmann
i guess the 6-hour time difference could be handled by adjusting the berlin location to eastern standard? if we set talks in your afternoon / our morning or a little alter, i don't see any problem.
I think the time difference goes the other way. Our afternoon is your evening.
what needs to be done?
1. it would be nice to set up a video conference link that people can walk into on both sides and that will broadcast the talks. i guess that would be one laptop with decent audio and video dedicated to skype on each side. we should probably test this a few days ahead of the event. i'll take care of the hardware on our end.
Cool. Let's organize a test run off-list.
2. chatroom: i think a text-based channel is also essential. should we use jabber? if nobody else is volunteering, i'll take care of that, too.
Well, there's the #haskell-hacphi IRC channel. ~d
