11th and 12th at XML 2002 works for me.

December 10th/11th are the C|Net Web Services conference in San Francisco. I
am speaking so I will be on that coast that week.
 
I prefer option B.

OK so we need to decide on the date of our next F2F meeting. At the call
yesterday I agreed to post the candidate dates that were discussed. 


Option A 
We currently have this tentative booking confirmed: 
Wednesday/Thursday , December 11th and 12th 2002 
As part of XML 2002 in Baltimore, Hosted by OASIS 
The advantage of this are that several other TC's are also meeting there and
that several of our members will also be at XML2002 anyway. 
The downside is, on the WSS TC call yesterday, several folks indicated a
problem with this date. 

Option B 
On the call, some folks suggested Nov 21/22 (I think I got those dates
right)  as an alternative date. This is a Thursday/Friday. No venue was
suggested but I think we are looking to hold the meeting somewhere on the US
East Coast. 

Option C 

Some other date. 

We will explore some of the e-voting ideas that were suggested as a way to
close this but in the mean time I am posting this note to start (hopefully a
brief) discussion of the next F2F date. Note that Nov 21/22 is the week
before US Thanksgiving and also some religious holidays and I suspect will
not be any more popular than the December date.  I am also concerned about
having meetings on Fridays as experience tells me that you lose a lot of
pople early who are trying to get home for the weekend (but again I may have
got the date wrong). 

So what do people think ? 

Cheers
Kelvin
