Subject: [Gnso-rpm-providers] Time Zone Rotation - 23:00 UTC?

 

Hello everyone, 

 

Staff would like to ask your input on potential time zone rotation for the Providers Sub Team calls. 

 

Among the 11 people <https://community.icann.org/x/3BW8B>  in the Sub Team (nine members + one observer + one WG Co-Chair), three people are located in the APAC time zone, two in Europe, and six in North/South America. The 18:00 UTC time is especially inconvenient for those in the APAC time zone. 

 

Would it be helpful that we hold the meeting at 23:00 UTC periodically? This would be 7am in Singapore/HK/ Kuala Lumpur, and 11pm in the UK. It is still not ideal, but it would be better than 18:00 UTC when APAC colleagues most likely could not attend. 

 

Of course, the frequency of the rotation depends on the number of future Sub Team meetings that we foresee. Perhaps we will gain more clarity after next week’s call. 

 

In the meantime, please let the group know whether holding meeting at 23:00 UTC would be feasible, and if so, whether we can do that for next week’s call. If not, do you have suggestions on alternative time? 

 

Thank you for your consideration!

 

Best Regards,

Ariel
