RE: ConCall Schedule for ebSOA TC

Sally,

 

I just looked at your Word document - and see that Wednesday is
actually your own personal preference! ; -)

 

However - I'm wondering if - (at the risk of your pouring boiling oil
on me or worse!) - we maybe need to revisit on this again - since
peoples work and projects do change over time.

 

I had the distinct sense that John picked 3pm on Tuesdays mostly for
his own convenience!  Perhaps there's something of a precedence
here - because obviously the new chair will want to have a time / day
that works best for them too...

 

You can just tell me not to re-open this can of worms!

 

Thanks, DW

The ebSOA TC did a survey of members in the fall of 2005 to get a
time that would accomodate the most participants. I handled this
effort; you can see the messages relating to this effort beginning at
http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/ebsoa/email/archives/200509/msg00010.html

 

As a result of the input we changed the time to Tuesdays at 3 pm
ET. One of the people we were making an effort to accomodate was Hamid
who was on yesterdays call. Since you have not been participating of
late the inconvience of this time for you was not an issue. Your
raising it to accomodate participants in Asia I would suggest should be
addressed by the full TC since the objective is to
maximize participation.

 

Having been through this once for this TC I know there is
no one ideal time. Changing the time without evidence that we will get
more participation in terms of people and contribution is likely to be
counterproductive.

 

As you have raised the issue of the scheduling of the call time you
should obtain the facts, define the issue/options and present
them to the full TC.
