Book Club Updates
The first book club discussion gets ever closer, and hopefully we will have an IRC server up and running to handle the live chat. However, if this is not the case we will use a temporary channel over at freenode. Either way, I will tell you how to get connected and into the discussion when I know more details.
I’ve set the date of the discussion as 30th May, and now we run into the problem of timing. I know that we have people reading the book who live in America, UK, and Australia, so I figure the best course of action to get everyone a say is to have early afternoon on the 30th for Americans, late evening on the 30th for the UK, and mid-morning on the 31st for Australians.
If I propose the time of 23:00 GMT on the 30th, this roughly equates to:
09:00 Australia ACT (31st)
16:00 US (Arizona)
18:00 US (Central)
19:00 US (Eastern)
Obviously this is open to debate, so please voice your opinions on whether these times are good, or suggest an alternative way of doing it.
It might be a good idea if I start a mailing list for these sorts of things, so if you want to get information on the book club and updates via a mailing list, please send me your email.

I can make it for that time (18:00 Central Time). Let us know about the IRC information.

If I try really really hard I can probably make that. How cogent I will be is another matter. And I have to finish the book first (I’m slack).
