After roughly a week of polling, we’ve had 55 responses thus far of people 
entering their preferred time to schedule the joint event with Netman about our 
response to Covid-19.  It seems Friday is one of the most popular days and 
currently Friday at 3PM Pacific Time has the most amount of votes.  Here’s a 
tally of the favorite times:

36 votes
Date      Easter Time  Pacific Time
Friday    3PM - 4PM    12PM - 1PM

35 votes
Date      Easter Time  Pacific Time
Monday    2PM - 3PM    11AM - 12PM
Monday    3PM - 4PM    12PM - 1PM
Tuesday   2PM - 3PM    11PM - 12PM
Friday    1PM - 2PM    10PM - 11PM
Friday    2PM - 3PM    11AM - 12PM

34 votes
Date      Easter Time  Pacific Time
Friday    11AM - 12PM  8PM - 9AM

We’ll hold the Doodle poll open until this Friday and by that time, we’ll 
select the most preferred day and time.

For those of you that are still interested in attending the session, but will 
show up whatever time we choose and/or don’t care to complete the Doodle 
survey, here’s a Google form for you to enter your email address so we can send 
you a link to the Zoom meeting.  We’re going to hold off on posting the link to 
the listserv.  So please enter your email address on this Google Form so we can 
send you the Zoom invite.

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Doodle Poll for Virtual Session - Covid-19 Response

External Message

For the first virtual session between Netman and Wireless-Lan, we’re hosting a 
discussion via Zoom about our preparedness and response to supporting remote 
learning and working remotely due to the Covid-19/Coronoavirus outbreak.  In 
subsequent virtual meetings, we’ll talk about Network Monitoring and Network 
Management, which was the desired interest in early February.  But due to the 
current conditions, we felt it better to address our response to the pandemic 
and to discuss creative ideas and overcoming challenges we’ve all faced as the 
first topic of conversation.  This way we can share information about how we’ve 
supported our schools with the rapid switch to virtual classrooms and virtual 
offices.  Ryan Turner and Jeff Farese of Netman along with Iyan Lyons and Eric 
Kenny of Wireless-LAN will be co-facilitating the meeting.

We’re gathering everyone’s input on the best time to hold the virtual meeting. 
Here’s a link to a Doodle poll to collect everyone’s preferred meeting time:

https://doodle.com/poll/gqn6gaueb9u5yimb<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdoodle.com%2Fpoll%2Fgqn6gaueb9u5yimb&data=02%7C01%7Cmferguson%40CHAPMAN.EDU%7Cdb9db86ff14b4a60027208d7d58e1916%7C809929af2d2545bf9837089eb9cfbd01%7C1%7C0%7C637212678611774578&sdata=4eEXPO%2BiE2gA0h%2FybJnhGwxGXsliCRXr7Ku0JJmLGXk%3D&reserved=0>

Note that the timeframes of the poll are based on 1-hour time slots in North 
America, between 8 am to 2 pm Pacific time or 11 am to 5 pm Eastern time. We 
know there is international interest in participating in this virtual session 
and we hope that those of you in non-North American time zones can help pick 
the best time that fits into the available North American timeslots.

Also, note that the tentative week we’re looking to host the virtual meeting is 
between April 13 to April 17. We haven’t nailed down the exact week yet, but 
the week of April 13-17 is representative of any week we might host the virtual 
meeting. So if you can pick the best time no matter what week we end up having 
the session, this way we can pick the most popular time which will likely set a 
pattern of a regular time frame for subsequent virtual meetings that follow.

In the doodle poll, we’re asking that everyone include their email address so 
that we can send a link to the Zoom meeting ahead of time. We’ll be judicious 
about how we post the actual meeting link to the Netman and Wireless-LAN lists 
in order to prevent any Zoom Bombing. However, we will post to both lists the 
scheduled date and time of the meeting, once we get everyone’s feedback.

Last, here’s a link to our Lean Coffee Table discussion board where we’re 
collecting everyone’s input on topics to discuss. We ask that people submit up 
to 3 topic cards to bring up for discussion. Everyone will have 3 votes to give 
to any topic card so we can rank the hot topics that are on everyone’s mind.

https://www.leancoffeetable.com/TaskBoard/View/7bcaae9e-7c9c-45d3-aacb-cc6c61de3165?guest=true<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.leancoffeetable.com%2FTaskBoard%2FView%2F7bcaae9e-7c9c-45d3-aacb-cc6c61de3165%3Fguest%3Dtrue&data=02%7C01%7Cmferguson%40CHAPMAN.EDU%7Cdb9db86ff14b4a60027208d7d58e1916%7C809929af2d2545bf9837089eb9cfbd01%7C1%7C0%7C637212678611774578&sdata=%2BRPavaeRFpooN%2FBhhZqH8a64OOTC2SHtuTizVb7yzgc%3D&reserved=0>

Ryan Turner has already suggested these 6 topics as starting points, which have 
already been topics that have come up in the Netman list or also in the CIO 
list:

1)            VPN upgrades
2)            How are departments transitioning to work from home
3)            How are staff responsible for deployments staggering shifts to 
provide coverage on-site
4)            What the new normal will look like for the time being
5)            Special requests for connecting staff that don’t have proper 
internet
6)            Special requests for ‘parking lotwirelesss’
