UnliMeet is an LMS plug-in for the management of asynchronous group meetings. It manages meeting agenda, schedules, group files, group membership. (See also “Meetings: The ultimate time-suck and what to do about them.”)
UnliMeet is especially for people skeptical of the productivity of long face-to-face meetings (or for those claiming they're too busy to attend or to come early to meetings… or maybe just stuck in traffic?) but, still, want to get things done by the group or the committee.
UnliMeet is based on Chairman (now a deprecated plugin). It's offered here as part of moodLearning's LMS-customization services. The forked code will be released as an open source plugin in the future.
