RE: W3C Web Crypto WG - no conf call today, but voting instead

Mike,

Some people will be attending the 2 calls, and the number of contributions does not justify at the moment that we meet every week. The mailing list will anyway stay active and I will deliver regularly my 'take away'. 

Decision about meetings will be made by Thursday, I am expecting other's opinion, but it will be implemented for next week. I will send outlook invitation to try to help outlook users - for the others, just ignore it. 

Regards,
Virginie

I would rather that we have a call every week, than every other week - particularly if one of them will be at 7am Pacific time.  Effectively that would mean that I would likely be only able to join a call every four weeks - which is too long a time span.

Will the next call be next Monday at the regular time (Noon pacific)?  I'd like to get in in my calendar.

				Thanks,

Hi all,

Sorry if I was not clear : I mean one call every two weeks, with alternate timing. 
Which would give, for instance :  Week 1 : call @20:00 UTC, Week 2 : no call, Week 3 call @15:00 UTC, Week 4 : no call...

To answer Ryan's comment : we can always cancel the call if there is nothing to discuss, or if there is no attendee on the call - up to now we used to have 10 to 15 participants, which demonstrates an interest, I guess. Personally, I do believe that there is value to have live discussions among participants. 

Regards,
Virginie

Can we just leave consensus to the mailing list, and use the phone meetings to work out details / answer questions / review the spec?

Given that the past few issues on consensus have ended up spanning several phone calls, due to various participants being unable to attend phone/in-person meetings, it seems simpler to use the phone for high-bandwidth discussions that result in proposals then directed to the mail list for final consensus.
