RE: Call this week

Hi Dirk,

As Amelia has pointed out we’re currently not planning any face to face meetings. I’ll send a phone call time poll of sorts to the list as my next mail…

The current SVG WG charter does not include face-to-face meetings. (https://www.w3.org/2017/04/svg-2017.html)

The agreement from those who made last week's call was that we should try to have weekly calls, but that the call time should probably be adjusted (Tav had also asked for a time earlier in the day).

Bogdan had promised to arrange a survey of some sort for figuring out the best time.

PS, Glad to hear you expect to be able to be active in the group this year!

Hi all,

The call was on a too short notice. I didn’t see it in time. My apologies for not attending. Will the meeting be weekly from now on? Also, did the WG discuss the request to move the meeting time? Multiple members (especially from Europe) asked to meet earlier. 10:30PM will be too late for me at least :).

Do we plan to have F2F meetings in 2018? If yes, how many? Does it make sense to align with the CSS WG for FX meetings?

Greetings,
Dirk

PS, The times on that website are April-October hours (when 20:30 UTC is 21:30 in UK).

With 16:30 EST as the reference time, anyone who was using UTC as reference will need to adjust by an hour, and anyone on summer time in the Southern hemisphere would need to adjust by two hours:

Pardon the late notice!

I would encourage us to have the call tomorrow using the existing time (https://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/wiki/Meetings<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2FGraphics%2FSVG%2FWG%2Fwiki%2FMeetings&data=02%7C01%7Cdschulze%40adobe.com%7C4c5bedbcd6464377210708d53da655ba%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178decee1%7C0%7C0%7C636482706982572383&sdata=mF%2FC3gM3Va2G%2BQYbv0KH12GxkDXJ2xIs1SoQ1TNBuJk%3D&reserved=0>). The proposed agenda is to go through the chapters progress and discuss any blocking issues. Please feel free to propose additional topics!

During TPAC we’ve discussed that the time would not work great for everybody, so going forward I would suggest to have alternating options that would work best for all.

Going forward I hope we’ll make a habit of meeting regularly even if the main agenda items will likely be exclusively testing and chapter completion.

Hope to meet everybody tomorrow on the call / IRC!
