[Gluster-Maintainers] Maintainer's meeting series

[Atin Mukherjee]

I always had the current slot conflicting with one of the meeting which I
can't skip. OTOH, I second Nigel's proposal of having alternate timeslots
to make it more convenient for folks to have presence from different time
zone/to avoid conflicting meetings at least on an alternative sequence. I
know that this model was tried earlier with the weekly community meeting
where there wasn't much improvement w.r.t participation but it doesn't harm
us either.
