I think it's great if we can get all IMP developers including in Europe and Asia on board, at least for the first meeting. IMP development could benefit a lot from collaboration among the various IMP labs, and this could also support future collaboration among IMP labs.

The timezone is an issue - my recollection is that we have developers in Spain (+8 hours), France (+9 hours), Israel (+10 hours), possibly in Germany (+9 hours - Jan Kosinski at EMBL, Heidelberg may be interested). If I didn't forget anyone (Ben?) - a morning meeting here (say 10 or 11 am) could allow them to join in the European/ME evening.

We had a good discussion at the retreat about how improving the reliability and efficiency in IMP is critical for our current and future goals in structural modeling. To do this, we proposed a periodic meeting to discuss problems/inefficiencies in IMP, identify the root causes and collectively design the best ways to fix them.

The best place for such discussion is the existing IMP developers' mailing list (cc'd):

There are several people outside of the lab who are IMP developers and so may be interested in joining these meetings. They're not on the lab mailing list but are (or can be) on imp-dev.

I suggest we have our first meeting next week...say Thursday 2PM? (or Ben, whatever day you plan to be in).  We can decide on a recurring time then.

If you want to have physical meetings as well, that's fine, although Fridays are better for me. 2pm's probably not a great time if anybody from Europe or Asia will be joining though.
