At Whamcloud we have regularly scheduled concalls that cross a lot of timezones, and realistically the only time that allows people to join is early PT in the USA, end of day in Europe, and ~midnight in Asia.
What I've done (which has never been pleasant) is to alternate between 11am US/Eastern and 11pm US/Pacific. That distributes the pain a bit more equally, but yeah, it's not great.
I'd be OK to attend such a meeting, but I agree with Amir that relatively few ext4 developers are invited to KS so it doesn't necessarily reduce the travel. In years past we would attend OLS, but that is (AFAIK) largely unattended by ext4 developers these days.
This is not the Kernel Summit, but LSF. And the LSF is held at the same week as the Collaboration Summit, which is a open event. Also, getting an invite to LSF really isn't that hard, if you plan ahead… -- Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
