If people want, I can set-up a Web-based questionnaire to see if we want to change the time. The other option that Ahmed (Ahmed, correct me if I'm wrong here) seemed to think would work for him would be an hour later, i.e. would 4:00 GMT work for Juan/Ashok/Ahmed? And does 4:00 GMT not work for anyone? Note that it in general takes a few days for Zakim to switch conference so we will probably have to do this week's call at 3:00 GMT. cheers, -harry On Mon, 19 Oct 2009, ashok malhotra wrote: > I'm sorry I missed the first WG telcon! > There seems to have been some discussion re. the time for the weekly telcon. > Like Juan Sequeda, I have a conflict at the Thursday time, Would it be > possible to > move the telcon to Fridays, perhaps at 11AM Eastern, the time slot we used > for the XG calls? > All the best, Ashok > > > hhalpin@w3.org wrote: >> >> The first meeting is always the most difficult due to everyone getting used >> to things, but here are our minutes!
