This is an implemented final proposal for Changed Working Group times

As a short recap, a couple meetings ago the topic was raised to take a fresh look at our meeting cadence based on a few concerns:

  • A two hour meeting was a little too long
  • Timing was late in the day for EU
  • Timing was middle of the night for APAC
  • Agendas ran over, without a path for overflow
  • Significant progress is being made, and a monthly cadence isn't frequent enough.

This changes timing as follows:

  • The existing WG meeting is now named "Primary", remains on first Thursdays, but is reduced to 1.5hr and shifted slightly earlier.
  • Two new "Secondary" WG meetings are added, one at the same time on third Thursdays, and one +5hr on second Wednesdays to be more APAC available.

This also revises agenda templates and file system:

  • Year/Month/ becomes a directory with named meeting agenda files within
  • Updated intro text describing the meeting purpose
  • Updated the timeanddate links to use the newer meeting scheduling tool.
  • List times in Pacific Time instead of UTC, since that is how our calendar entries have been working.

Finally, this adds tables of all meetings for WG and subcommittees in the repo README.

There's also the GraphiQL subcommittee. We had a meeting for metadata, but it seems that may have moved back to the main WG?

LGTM! Let's add GraphiQL and then we should be good to go 🙌
