Subject: Re: [sca-bindings] Fw: Groups - oasis - Ballot "Attendance at theDecember Bindings F2F" has closed


I agree that postponing would put our schedule in jeopardy.

Another option is to have the f2f meeting and make unofficial decisions; 
designate specific time/duration each day during which folks who can't 
attend in person will dial in and make decisions during that time.

Looking at the ballot, I'll observe that there are a lot of active 
members who won't be able to attend in person. That's not good for 
making decisions which won't be reopened. Given this, a virtual f2f 
seems like an attractive option. For the timezone issue, we could have 
the virtual f2f say from 7am-11am pacific from mon-thursday. Monday was 
designated a travel day in any case.
