Hi

Split the difference sounds right to me — 1/2 or 1 day with enhanced online coordination prior.

Hi Volker.  Thanks for kicking off this discussion and I, too, was
wondering who ³had the ball.²

I think your list of options is good, but would propose another (or
rather, #3a):  Add time to the meeting for an _abbreviated_ council
meeting.  In stead of the weekend, do a single day or half-day.

I suppose this replaces/augments Option #2.

Thanks‹

Dear Strategy team,

as we have not had any feedback on this channel for the past two weeks,
I feel it is appropriate to kick off the discussion to ensure we are
ready with a proposal in time for the first meetings under the new
schedule.

The one meeting we should probably focus on is the four-day meeting as
it would require the largest re-adjustment, whereas the "normal" and
"long" meetings will probably allow the council to operate with business
as usual.

Frankly, I currently see no way of how to fit in the current schedules
of the council into the small meeting unless councillors will be in
session for the entirety of the meeting, and therely lose the ability to
communicate effectively outside the council. We will therefore be faced
with limited choices:

1) Fit the current schedule into the new meeting;
2) Cut down the council meeting to its bare essentials;
3) Add time to the meeting, very much like current practice;
4) Eliminate the council face-to-face meeting at the short meeting.

Personally, I lean toward support for option 3, as the other options
would result in a loss of effectiveness of the council.

Anyway, with this, I hope a fruitful discussion kicks off.
