This 0.5h after 12pm is the >special extra time - not the regular. To be clear, my motive (#2) was to not be trapped in the situation where we could never have all-QAWG for full 1-1/2 hours. It might be common expectation about 3-4 times a year (that's how often we publish), that we may have enough critical focused issue resolution work, that it can't be done in 1 hour. IMO. (It has also been my experience on other groups.) So the key issue between #1 and #2 (#3) is: #1 never allows all-QAWG time longer than 1 hr. -Lofton. >Should I be in minority, I also suggest option #3.
