That said, full marks for Alan - he is doing something that other areas in ICANN are less concerned about - trying to accommodate as many as possible. I have to say, those of us on this side of the world are all too familiar with calls at really inhospitable times, so I for one really appreciate Alan’s effort. So please - all of us - support Alan and recognise that some call times are going to be bad for some of us- and try to make as many as possible with as little fuss as possible.

By answering this, you say you can make the meeting, but would prefer if it not be scheduled then. That was taken into account, but as you have seen in my reply to Seun, that is only one of may factors that we were trying to balance.

I have a long standing issue with this methodology. Maybe does not mean Yes and It also could be that some key people could not make it at that time or it was tied with another time when adding in the maybes Best, Judith _________________________________________________________________________ Judith Hellerstein, Founder & CEO Hellerstein & Associates 3001 Veazey Terrace NW, Washington DC 20008 Phone: (202) 362-5139 Skype ID: judithhellerstein E-mail: Judith@jhellerstein.com<mailto:Judith@jhellerstein.com> Website: www.jhellerstein.com<http://www.jhellerstein.com/> Linked In: www.linkedin.com/in/jhellerstein/<http://www.linkedin.com/in/jhellerstein/> Opening Telecom & Technology Opportunities Worldwide On 1/25/2016 11:20 AM, Seun Ojedeji wrote: Hello Staff, While i have noted the time for the next call, I like to state that I am not sure i understand how the timings are figured out. Looking at the doodle result at the following url, i have the following observation: http://doodle.com/poll/u2qhf5tidupa5e5f 1. 19:00 to 21:00 UTC had the highest votes but was not included 2. There are other timing that has more votes than the ones selected A clarification would be appreciated as it does seem the doodle result was not quite in sync with the final outcome.

As had been the past practice, it will be held on the 4th Tuesday of each month (with exceptions for ICANN meetings). Please fill in the Doodle at http://doodle.com/poll/u2qhf5tidupa5e5f as soon as possible. Ignore the DATE, it is the day of the week and time that counts. If you know you are not available for a specific meeting (such as the January one), please note that in a comment, but fill in the Doodle for the general case. Note that each Doodle time-slot is for the full two hour meeting starting at the designated time. For ALAC Members and Liaisons in particular, PLEASE BE FLEXIBLE. We will try to avoid meetings in the dead of night, but with members spanning the world, that will not always be possible and we will do our best to limit the number of times any individual member needs to participate at really awkward times. It is not fair to force some people to always bear the pain. If you have a particular situation that cannot be easily expressed in the Doodle, please send a private note to me and Gisella.
