Thanks Andrew,

My understanding is that 5am for you is 18:00 or 19:00 UTC and is opposite of what you indicate, that is, it is:

1pm ET in northern winter / southern summer (18:00 UTC)
3pm ET in northern summer / southern winter (19:00 UTC)

If I am correct, there are then two options:

move the monthly EC meetings to 19:00 – 21:00 UTC (but the meeting time changes for most e.g., 2pm ET or 3pm ET )
move the monthly EC meetings to 3pm – 5pm ET (meeting time does not change for most)

I would be fine for the former, but would the latter be easier to manage?

Cheers,

Glenn.

If changing the time makes it so Andrew will join, then I am ok to change the time.

If he will not be available anyway, then I am for not changing from the 1pm ET.

Cheers,

Jon

Folks,

As noted in the EC call today, the proposal is to move the monthly EC meetings to 20:00 - 22:00 UTC.

This is based solely on EC members being in six time zones. We could weight this by the number of members per time zone or voting vs non-voting members. In both cases that would likely move the sweet spot closer to noon ET (e.g., our current slot), which again would put the meeting during sleeping time for some.

Please let me know if you have an opinion on the proposed time.

Cheers,

Glenn.

John,

My understanding was that this was for the monthly calls.

But if we use it for the EC meetings at the plenary, then your proposal of 2-6pm ET is reasonable.

Cheers,

Glenn.

Glenn

Working on proposal for March Plenary. I will use the times you suggest for the Opening Nov Plenary which is 2 hours.

For the 4 hour closing meeting- what would you suggest – add an hour on either side of the 3-5pm ET?

Thanks in advance.

John

Colleagues,

Based on the discussion at the EC meeting this week, my proposal is to confirm a fixed sweet spot that is workable for all voting and non-voting EC members. It is currently 1-3 pm ET.

My assessment is that the EC members are spread across six time zones. In standard time (not adjusting for daylight/summer) they are:

UTC, UTC -5, UTC -6, UTC -7, UTC -8, UTC +10

Adjusting for daylight/summer (but not the gap weeks) that would be either southern summer:

UTC, UTC -5, UTC -6, UTC -7, UTC -8, UTC +11

E.g, Jan 5

https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingtime.html?iso=20210105&p2=179&p3=64&p4=75&p5=224&p6=240&p7=136

Or northern summer:

UTC+1, UTC -4, UTC -5, UTC -6, UTC -7, UTC +10

E.g., July 6

https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingtime.html?iso=20210706&p2=179&p3=64&p4=75&p5=224&p6=240&p7=136

So the sweet spot (which is green or yellow in the table at the above links for each time zone) would be 3-5 pm ET in southern summer and 4-6 pm ET in northern summer. Alternating times would presumably put the meeting during sleeping time (red in the table) for one or more members for each meeting.

If we would like, we could weight this by the number of members per time zone or voting vs non-voting members. In both cases that would likely move the sweet spot closer to noon ET (e.g., our current slot), which again would put the meeting during sleeping time for some.

Comments?

Cheers,

Glenn.
