[Ws2-jurisdiction] RES: Welcome to the WS2 Jurisdiction Subgroup!

[McAuley, David]

Thanks Greg and others for moving this forward.

I personally think that the time should be rotated to allow for a fair distribution of the inconvenience of participating in off-hours.

All,

Thanks for your comments to date.  We've heard from about a half-dozen members so far, and it would be helpful to hear from more before fixing a long-term slot or rotation.

In my view we need to accommodate our members as best we can, so we can do our work; those are the demographics we need to deal with.  I will note that "Iran and west" includes not only NA and EU, but also AF (as pointed out by Mike Silber) and SA, as well as the Middle East, Western Asia and portions of Central Asia.  I will also note that among the 4 respondents from "east of Iran" the votes for the 13:00 time slot, there were 2 yes votes, 1 if need be and 1 no.

All that said, this is a decision to be made by the group, and as such, the more members' voices heard the better.  I'm not sure running another doodle poll would help, but I'd rather let the discussion go forward first.  One shortcoming of polls is that they do not allow for dialogue.  As such, if there is another poll, let's have it after further dialogue, so that the participants can keep in mind various viewpoints as they respond.

In the interests of transparency, here are the quantitative results from the Doodle poll.  I excluded all results involving the 05:00 time slot, since there was little support for this slot in any configuration.

Greg:
I think it makes sense to alternate the meeting time, especially if there was something near to a bimodal distribution of preferences. While it may be true that a (NA-EU) majority finds the 19:00 UTC time most convenient, by alternating we can incorporate the preferences of a larger segment of the group.

Just as aside - AF finds 19:00 convenient too, but it seems the thoughts of Africa are not that relevant
