we should also invite jlebar
so jlebar, dougt and jrconclin, now what date works for you all?
I'm free anytime except Mondays 2p Pacific and every other Tuesday at 2p Pacific (1/22 is an on day).

I'm on Eastern time, but I don't mind a late-ish meeting if that's what works for everyone else.
We have Mon/Wed at 1pm PST/4PM EST or Thu/Fri 10am PST/ 1PM PST....I think a Mon or Wed would be best to get all the "mobile" guys from our team
How does Wed 6th 1PM PST work for everyone ?

It would also be really helpful for me to talk to someone prior to the security review, as I am struggling to gain a complete picture of data flows from the existing documentation.

What I have currently, with questions is here: https://etherpad.mozilla.org/n1f1znLCQh . Please correct/answer questions if you can. Or ping me (pauljt) if its easier to explain in person.
dougt and I will be in London that week; 1 PST is late in the evening over there.  I don't necessarily have a problem with the lateness, but I've had really bad experiences in the past trying to connect to meetings over hotel networks.

I've tried to answer the questions and provide as much insight as I can. 

Thanks!

This feature seems less urgent to review than basecamp stuff, so maybe we can leave it till the week afterwards. (getting Europe, Australia & US at the same time is really only possible in the evening europe time, unless I get at 3am) (Or I can get someone from the sec team in the US if it is urgent)

So how about 13th at 1pm PST? 

PS JR, thanks for the info, I'll review and come back to you if I need more.
