RE: [ebxml-msg] Concall schedule

[ian.c.jones@bt.com]

Team,

	due to the timescales and late notice I was out of the office and
had limited e-mail access I would like to setup a weekly call rota starting
next Wednesday (8th) at 11am Pacific.  I have seen no adverse comment to
this but hope that if you have any you will voice it now.  Matt hinted that
a shorter call may be more useful - would people prefer 45 minutes to 1
hour?

	So far I have the following volunteers to host calls
	Pete - SeeBeyond
	Matt - Yellow Dragon Software
	Mike - Drummond Group

	A couple of others have made informal commitments please e-mail me
or the list to confirm, I would like at least 5 and preferable 6 so that no
one has to host more than once a month.  Once I have the list I intend to
just cycle around so that everyone can see when they are expected to host a
call and set up the Kavi Calendar to the end of this year taking note of
Thanksgiving and Christmas - anything else?

	Thank you all for the efforts so far. I hope with a more regular
schedule we can move forward faster.

Subject: [ebxml-msg] Concall schedule


During last week's call, we discussed how to keep up the TC's momentum
and complete the work we have in progress.  I suggested that 2 weeks
was a long time between calls, resulting in "out of sight, out of
mind" during off-weeks.  There was general agreement that it would be
a good idea to talk more frequently.

An alternative that wasn't mentioned, is to increase the time to 90
minutes, so that we can get more accomplished on the days that we do
happen to achieve quorum.

Also, Jacques thought an earlier start time of 11am PT instead of 1pm
would be more convenient.

So, please reply with answers to the following survey:

1. Would you prefer changing to a weekly teleconference schedule, or
   to remain biweekly but with longer calls?
2. Would you be able to participate in a rotating host schedule,
   sponsoring a conference call every 4-6 weeks or so?
3. Will an earlier start time of 11am PT on Wednesdays work for you?

Thanks!
