That made it easier to get some time zone overlap between Europe and the United States. More time than that in a day on video and people would start to get tired. Thoughts about how to get reasonable coverage for people in different time zones? It's subtle, but the whenisgood link appears to assume U.S. pacific time --- I'd be willing to start a little earlier or end a little later if it makes participation from other time zones easier.
