RE: [tag] TAG TC 2011-01-25 Meeting Minutes

["Dennis E. Hamilton" <dennis.hamilton@acm.org>]

If we slide to 03-01 (my preference) and stick with multiples of 14 days as intervals after that, we should be fine with the 4-week progression being

 03-01, 03-29, 04-26, 05-24, etc.  

That looks like it would fit into our anticipated progression of the Model and TAML toward OASIS Standard, with an occasional electronic mail ballot thrown in.  And not collide with any prospective US Holidays.

Hi Jacques, Dennis, and all,
Sorry that I missed the last meeting - I now have a conflict on alternating Tuesdays.  Would it be possible to have the next meeting on
2/15 or 3/1?  That would get me on the alternating schedule for Tuesdays that work for me.
Thanks,
Paul
