/14 September 2010
Anyone around here? If so, let's find a time to meet! Scientific29 (talk) 04:07, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
I'm here, I'm coming back; I'm one of the most actives in Spanish Wikipedia. Now, I'm trying to make reaction diagrams language independent, but I have some limitations due to captions. I'll be online in channel on Tuesdays at 16h-17h GMT.--Omegakent (talk) 02:29, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
- OK, let's try to meet up next Tuesday 1600 UTC (1800 CEST, just to remind myself) Physchim62 (talk) 02:48, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
- Sounds good! I'll be there too! It's about time... Walkerma (talk) 04:00, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
- I will be in school then, would a later (past 1900) or earlier (before 700) work for anyone? Scientific29 (talk) 11:02, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
- I can't do before 0700 UTC, but I can manage a later time in the European evening. Physchim62 (talk) 14:37, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
- I'm a bit confused by everything - but I'll be on IRC at 1600h UTC, which corresponds to noon in US EDT. If Scientific29 wants to talk later, can he/she suggest a time? Thanks, Walkerma (talk) 14:20, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
- I'll be there (I'm there already!) and logging. Physchim62 (talk) 14:52, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry I couldn't make it! How did the meeting go? Who was there? Scientific29 (talk) 19:34, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
- I'll be there (I'm there already!) and logging. Physchim62 (talk) 14:52, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

It went well: myself, Walkerma and Rifleman 82 there. I've posted the log (edited to remove rude comments and most of the personal chit-chat!), and I'll do a summary in a moment. Physchim62 (talk) 06:04, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
Summary of discussion
- Walkerma presented ChemSpider Education (CSE), which is currently in the early stages of development
- considerable overlap with Wikiversity and possibilities for collaboration with WMF projects
- copyright licensing for CSE has not been decided; Physchim62 mentioned that many in the "free science" community are opposed to share-alike clauses
- Physchim62 presented the new data pages on WikiChem
- felt to be a Good Idea, could be used on Wikiversity for example
- Comments from Organic Syntheses discussed
- Physchim62 presented the latest news from the IUPAC advisory committee on nomenclature
- the revised Blue Book, with preferred IUPAC names for organic compounds, is still under review and will not now be published before 2011
- a summary of the principles of IUPAC nomenclature will (probably) be published at the end of 2010
