The group has (archived) email list, public-covid-19@w3.org <mailto:public-covid-19@w3.org> now cc’d. (It has another mailing lists, and W3C offers other services, including a wordpress blog, use of W3C WebEx, a github repo, etc. We need to choose a chair or co-chairs and draft a charter. Choosing a chair: https://www.w3.org/community/about/tool/#choose-chair I think W3C is sensitive about calling it a -wg instead of a -cg (community group) I like saying go-remote instead of “meet, work, class” since I’ve been doing a little research on remote exercise classes / physical therapy and telemedicine. I’m on west coast time. I’ll add my thoughts about the charter to https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/covid-19-go-remote-wg The initial focus of the group should be to produce reports that will be useful in a matter of weeks, not months Many organizations have produced "best practices" documents and others that might be helpful to share.

Thanks for thinking to make this a W3C CG, Larry. Here's a suggested default video conferencing location: https://meet.jit.si/covid-19-go-remote-wg Any side conversations can be instantaneously hosted with any change to the last part of the URL in a browser, e.g. https://meet.jit.si/covid-19-go-remote-wg2 https://meet.jit.si/covid-19-go-online https://meet.jit.si/random There's no authentication -- any up-to-date browser gets someone 'in', though they'd have to now the URL. I'm near Ottawa, in the EST time zone. Where are each of you? This is a visually-convenient time coordinator to plan discussions: http://www.thetimenow.com/meeting-planner.php Here also is a suggested default video conferencing location: https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/covid-19-go-remote-wg Similarly, any side drafting can be instantaneously hosted with any change to the last part of the URL. There's no authentication -- any up-to-date browser gets someone 'in'. Granular version control: every character change can be replayed.
