Topic for discussion: adding meetings to support multiple time zones

[Chet Ensign <chet.ensign@oasis-open.org>]

LegalCiteM TC members, 

I would like to raise a topic for discussion at tomorrow's meeting. 

The Legal Citations TC is one of the few groups at OASIS with members around the globe. That means that meeting times that are convenient for some of us are prohibitively early or late for others of us. 

One other TC that has faced this challenge is the Universal Business Library (UBL) TC, one of the most successful standards to come out of OASIS. UBL has managed this challenge by running mirror meetings to fit schedules of those in Europe (on one side) and Asia Pacific (on the other). See for example: 

- Agenda for Pacific UBL TC call: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/201404/msg00009.html 

- Agenda for Atlantic UBL TC call: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/201404/msg00012.html 

Might we try something similar in order to make meeting times work for all participants in the TC? 

Best, 

/chet
