==Why are the meetings at 13:00 UTC?==
[[file:Meeting_times.png|thumb|right]]
Moodle never sleeps. There are developers working on Moodle around the clock. So when should we hold meetings to accommodate developers worldwide?
We have attempted, in the past, to run meetings in rotating time slots. While this seemed fair, every meeting excluded large groups of developers who were sleeping at the time (see the graphic to the right).
Meetings starting at 13:00 UTC seem to include the largest number of participants. This does unfortunately disadvantage people in the Western United States, in New Zealand and across the Pacific Ocean, however this constitutes the smallest proportion of potential attendees of all the time slots.
Our sincere apologies to those people wishing to attend for whom this time is not ideal.  Please note that we do our best to provide good recordings of the meeting so you can catch up later.
