[Ws2-hr] Welcome and call planning

[Niels ten Oever]

Dear all,

I would like to thank you all very much for participating in the online
polls. With an overwhelming majority (26/30) you chose that you would
like to have the meetings on a fixed day, at a fixed time.

There was also a consensus (30/38) that the time to do this should be
1900 UTC. The most contested decision was for the appropriate day. 29/36
voted for Tuesday, and 27/36 voted for Thursday.

So taking into account that there was a strong consensus for a static
day and time I've asked the secretariat to reserve a weekly meeting slot
for us on Tuesday for the rest of the year.

We'll be starting with our weekly meeting on the 16th of August at 19:00
UTC (since next week we already have a CCWG plenary planned on Tuesday).

You will receive invites for these meetings from the secretariat
shortly, and of course you will receive a proposed agenda and slides
from the co-chairs before the meeting.

Thanks you very much for participating in this poll.

Best,

Niels
