Re: [802.3EEESG] May interim question
Mike -
C. Makes no difference to me. Don't yet know if I'll be in Geneva.
However, I recommend this format, as I have seen this model of half-days
work well in ITU to allow "off floor" time for people to discuss issues
and formulate ways forward. You end up getting more done in a meeting,
because with a meeting spread out over more days, but fewer hours per
day, there is now more clock time to work through issues than just the
span of a nice, compact meeting. Yes, it requires more context
switching, but IMO, it's worth it.

Subject: [802.3EEESG] May interim question
Folks,
I have been asked if we would consider meeting three mornings for a
half-day rather than meet for a full day and a half-day. My personal
feeling is that we would lose continuity of the meeting by doing this.
On the other hand, if it enables more people to be able to attend our
meeting, I would say the benefit outweighs the inconvenience. So, what
I would like to know is if you are going to Geneva AND planning to
attend the EEESG:
1. Would changing the schedule to meet Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday
in the mornings only
A. Cause me not to attend EEESG
B. Enable me to attend, therefore I would attend
C. Makes no difference to me.
Please let me know no later than Thursday, March 29th.
Regards,
Mike
