AW: [council] Council meeting times

[HughesDeb at usa.redcross.org]

Thanks to the team for creating this schedule.  I admit that 3am will be tough, but I am willing to rotate in the interest of fairness!

The third option places the call at 1am in my time zone. This would be challenging. Having a call really early in the mourning or later at night is fine for me but a call that stretches between 1am to 3am unless held on the weekend would make sure I get fired. :)

Except in cases where a vote is taken and absentee voting does not apply.  Hopefully we will be able to address this issue going forward but for now the redundancy will not work in all cases.
