Kelvin,
XCBF is already meeting at this venue on December 9, so option
A works best for me.

OK so we need to decide on the date of
our next F2F meeting. At the call yesterday I agreed to post the candidate
dates that were discussed.
Option A
We currently have this tentative booking
confirmed:
Wednesday/Thursday , December 11th and
12th 2002
As part of XML 2002 in Baltimore, Hosted
by OASIS
The advantage of this are that several
other TC's are also meeting there and that several of our members will also
be at XML2002 anyway.
The downside is, on the WSS TC call yesterday,
several folks indicated a problem with this date.
Option B
On the call, some folks suggested Nov 21/22
(I think I got those dates right) as an alternative date. This is a Thursday/Friday.
No venue was suggested but I think we are looking to hold the meeting somewhere
on the US East Coast.
Option C
Some other date.
We will explore some of the e-voting ideas
that were suggested as a way to close this but in the mean time I am posting
this note to start (hopefully a brief) discussion of the next F2F date. Note
that Nov 21/22 is the week before US Thanksgiving and also some religious
holidays and I suspect will not be any more popular than the December date.
I am also concerned about having meetings on Fridays as experience tells
me that you lose a lot of pople early who are trying to get home for the
weekend (but again I may have got the date wrong).
So what do people think ?
Cheers
Kelvin
