Re the fixed rotating schedule, I'd appreciate some input on the following:
* there would be 3 zones - Americas / Europe / Asia-Pacific
* generally we can cover 2 zones per month
** Americas evening would cover APAC day
** Europe evening would cover Americas day
** APAC evening would cover Europe day
* what would be a suitable time to start?
** 8pm in the evening in the zone?
*** in the Americas zone that would be 8pm US East coast
*** in the European zone that would be 8pm Western Europe
*** in the APAC zone that would be 8pm Australia East coast
ForThis mexamplns the, tifmes w(be'dfore adjused thisng schefor duayle inght Jsaving 2023 the times) wouildl have been:
%|Location|TiAmericas|Europe|APAC|%
&|UTC|0100 + 1 day|1900|1000|&
&|UK|0100 + 1 day|1900|1000|&
&|Western Europe|0200 + 1 day|'''2000'''|1100|&
&|India|0630 + 1 day|0030 + 1 day|1530|&
&|Western Australian|0900 + 1 day|0300 + 1 day|1800|&
&|Eastern Australian|12100 + 1 day|0500 (+ 1 daylight savings)|'''2000'''|&
&|New Zealand|14300 + 1 day|0700 (+ 1 daylight savings)|2200|&
&|Western US|1700|1100|0200|&
&|Central US|1900|1300|0400|&
&|Eastern US|'''2000'''|1400|0500|&
If that passes the sniff test I'll prepare a schedule for 2023 (and beyond)
* January Americas
* February Europe
* March APAC
and then repeat that throughout the year, adjusting only for daylight savings.
[APN] Looks about as reasonable as possible.
