Hi. I agree with your asessment, but time zones is the contrebuting
factor even though improved communication technology has rendered some
help, and time differences is, unfortunately something we can't alter. I
myself am living in a time zone 12 hours ahead of some of you who reside
in the US EST time zone. 7 pm Saturday your time is 7 AM sunday my time,
for example, so while I wish I can attend the meetings, I know that it is
not too practical most times due to family and all that, so recordings
seem to be the next best choice..

This is my personal opinion only: The group meetings just might be one of
the best tools we will have, in which we can get immediate feedback or
help
and suggestions from those who are more experienced. I cannot imagine
anyone not wanting to participate. To me, this would be like taking a
class
and not participating in lectures and interactive studies. Without
planning
to attend any of the interactive meetings, held twice a week in order to
accommodate those who cannot attend, let's say, Thursday evening's
meeting,
but can attend Monday afternoon's, you might as well learn it through self
study methods. I might use recordings as a review tool only, and would
never use them as a crutch.

Hi,
but not everyone can or want to join in such events, especially just for
listening.
And what about new users - you'll have to repeat same things again and
again?
If someone has a question, he/she could ask it here.
It will be useful for the participants too - as a reference.
Best wishes,
Zahari

I'm not speaking for Jeff, but I think that recording the meetings would
be a good idea, although it would be better if everyone were to actually
attend if at all possible, because you cannot ask a recording any
questions.

Hi all.
I've read many of you guys had a an online meeting.
Would be possible to download this event audio?
It would be fine to those of us, like me, hadn't attended the meeting.
Thanks.
Gabriel.
