Hi Wiki-Americans,
It's been a bit difficult and unpredictable to schedule the WALRUS calls by Doodle poll every month.
Historically, people tend to vote the most for Monday and (somewhat less) for Tuesday evenings.
How about we adopt a regular schedule, like recurring on the second Monday of every month?
E.g. for the rest of the year, July 9, August 13, September 10, October 8, November 12, December 10
We could also alternate Mondays and Tuesdays, but that seems overcomplicated.
We can also change the date some months when that day is inconvenient (a holiday or other conflict), but at least by setting a regular schedule, we have a baseline and can plan things out for a while in advance.
Thanks, Richard / Pharos
Love the idea!
Best,
Jackie

I agree that Monday nights work best.
What time?
I think the last time we met, which was 9:00pm EDT, seemed to work nicely...

Richard,
I think it's a nice idea. I think Monday or Tuesday would be great. I would personally prefer an hour later (10:00 PM EDT) if possible, but I can usually make the current time too.
Best, Stephen

A regular schedule makes sense to me.
