RE: F2F straw poll (was: ATypI and TPAC)

Hi David,

Thank you very much for your offer to host the WG F2F meeting, we are fortunate to have you and Google both as major contributor and a meeting host!

I _think_ (but open to opposing views) that starting with early lunch, then having a longer meeting in the afternoon that culminates with the WG dinner would give us about 6 hours of meeting time, which should be plenty if all we need to do is to pat Rod and Khaled on their virtual back and congratulate them on CTS completion! ☺
Then, we will have plenty of time left to discuss next steps, possible new ventures for WG and the meaning of the  post-WOFF2 life.

All, does it sound like a reasonable plan? Feel free to BYOA (as in “bring your own agenda”)!

Cheers,
Vlad

Thank you Rod and David (by proxy :)

Thank you Vlad and Rod!



All, considering the regrets and the general emerging consensus on the F2F date – let’s forgo the WebEx call today.

With my WG Chair hat on - I will take the liberty to go ahead and declare the day of Monday, Sep. 12 as our F2F date in Warsaw, Poland.
Monday Sept 12th for the W3C web fonts working group meeting sounds great!

As Google has an office in Warsaw, I could reserve a room(s) there for the day, if everyone would like to meet there:

Google Warsaw
Warsaw Financial Center, Emilii Plater 53, 00-113 Warszawa, Poland

Should we plan for the entire day or half a day (with lunch)?  Thoughts?

Thank you,
David

This is the day before ATypI officially begins so we will not have any scheduling conflicts. It is also worth to note that among workshops they will be running on Sep. 13 there is one in particular that is technology-related: “SVG in OpenType” presented by Adobe’s Miguel Sousa. It’s scheduled in the end of the day Tuesday at 2:30 – 5:30 pm and is likely to be the one I’d want to attend.



Cheers,

Vlad

David is on PTO and presumably sends his regrets as well :D

I think it would be useful if we can spend some time during our scheduled WG WebEx time slot tomorrow to discuss F2F meeting preparation – finalize the date / location, times and agenda, etc. It shouldn’t take long to discuss it tomorrow but having it all finalized and announced on the WG email list sooner will be useful, IMO.

My regrets for that call (I am in India at a conference). I'm fine with Monday or Tuesday, as the group decides.
