Fair enough but I don't know when people in Bangkok typically get up and
I'm not sure it is really relevant.  Typically on-site meetings start at
10am local time and go on to 5:30, creating a 7.5-hour window for meeting
sessions.

Given that this is a virtual meeting,  it would make sense to widen those
windows to allow some amelioration of the problems that this creates for
some time zones, in this case, for those in the Americas.  Instead, the
window has been shortened to six hours and I'm not sure why.

That's the one thing about this that I do understand.  1-1-1-* time zones
are being respected but the inflexibility about the way this is done has
meant that many working groups need to schedule their meetings in November
as post-109 virtual interims.
