Namibia has 2 Public Holidays this year falling on Mondays, for interest sake they are 2026-05-04 2026-05-25 and then there is the Dutch National Day 2026-04-27 but neither should prevent me from participating. I have shortened the below for brevity. el On 2026-03-20 22:48, Paul McGrady wrote: [...]
So, let’s create some data. Here is the homework assignment for everyone: Please look at the regular meeting times we have scheduled and identify any holidays upon which you would like not to meet on. These can be official government holidays, religious holidays, whatever. After we see the scope of the holiday issue, we can adjust the meeting schedule if it makes sense. This is a better approach than carving out an exception now without understanding the downstream consequences. If I can have those holidays for the balance of 2026 upon which members do not want to meet by 23:59 UTC on Tuesday the Staff and I can consider those as we work through the work plan adjustments that we (the Working Group) collectively propose on our Monday call and in the comments to the Work Plan document during our asynchronous work. If there are only a few, or no, other holidays effected, that will make it easier to move the Easter Monday call. If there are many, that will militate towards making no exceptions.
