Re: Web Fonts Working Group call

Hi all,

Has our call been officially move to tomorrow at 12pm (Eastern)/9am Pacific? I seem to recall that was the consensus but I still have the old invite on my calendar for today.

The unfortunate part though is that our very first call this coming Wednesday _is_ in fact scheduled in the morning using W3C WebEx channel – I will ask Chris id we can instead use our “late” call time slot, as I originally intended.

Neither morning nor early afternoon (as we used to do) times would be convenient for them – maybe we should pick something that might work better for Japanese participants? Currently, Chris has allocated our “late” call time to be 2 pm PST / 5 pm Eastern – this would likely be an inconvenience for EU folks (11 pm CET0 but would make it feasible for JP participants to join at 7 am local time. Let’s discuss it on Wednesday.

However, they would be at a disadvantage with either of the telcon times we used to have - IIRC the call times switching between [7 am Pacific / 10 am Eastern / 4 pm CET] to [1 pm Pacific / 4 pm Eastern / 10 pm CET] worked better for participants from US and Europe. We can definitely discuss this again and see if we can come up with a different schedule to better accommodate all involved.
