[Adass-announce] ADASS Survey - Best meeting time slots for you

[ADASS announcement list]

Astronomical Data Analysis Software and Systems (ADASS) Conference Series

                                         8 - 12 November 2020
                               CyberSpace posing as Granada, Spain

                                            https://adass2020.es/

Action requested by July 8th, 2020.

ADASS XXX, hosted by IRAM and IAA-CSIC, will be held on a virtual platform
8-12 November 2020.  Because of the virtual nature of the event the
participants will
be distributed all over the world.

Despite the difficulty of conflicting time zones, we are striving to put
together a program
that is exciting and inclusive.  As such, we would like your input.

We would like to know which time slots would work best for you given your
particular
situation and interest.

Note that we are not planning to run the meeting 24 hours a day as the
survey might
suggest.  Rather, we will select 2 to 3 high attendance time slots for each
day of the
meeting, with the understanding that probably no one in the world will be
able to attend
all the sessions.  However, it is likely that everyone will be able to
attend at least one
session per day, possibly two.

So, we need your help in identifying the optimal time slots.

Please go to this survey and let us know what could work for you.  The time
slots are
in UTC.  In the survey we provide a link to a tool to help you convert UTC
to your local time
zone.  The survey will close on July 8.

Your selections are confidential.  They will not be shared outside the
ADASS LOC and POC,
and the other participants will not see your selections.

Thank you for helping us create this unusual program.
