Re: [alto] ALTO Interim in lieu of IETF 107

[Vijay Gurbani <[e-mail]>]

All: Thanks for expressing your preference on the list.

The tally I get from the responses is below, and from this, Option 1 seems
to be the best.  We will go ahead and schedule an interim for Apr 21, 2020
7:00 AM US Central.

Option 1 (7:00am US Central / 5:00am US Pacific).  That option had 7 votes.

The next highest (6 votes) are for 9:00am US Central / 7:00am US Pacific
Time and 11:00am US Central / 9:00am US Pacific.

Thanks,

- vijay
