December Call + Scheduling the Spring 2026 Face-To-Face Council Meeting
by Elisa Beshero-Bondar 25 Nov '25

25 Nov '25

Dear TEI Council members, Following the responses to our When2Meet poll, the December Council call will be on *Thursday December 18 from 7 – 8:30am PST | 10 – 11:30am EST | 3 – 4:30pm UTC | 4 – 5:30pm CET*. I've updated the TEI Board/Council calendar, but you may want to update your personal calendars, too. I will follow up soon with a calendar poll for the meetings in the new year 2026 from January onward. We also need to set some definite plans for our F2F meeting. Some scheduling parameters: - We would like to meet for 3.5 days if we can given that we're discussing P5 and P6 and have much to discuss in this special meeting. - March is probably better than May or June because: we'd like to be proposing some papers or panels / events on P6 efforts for the TEI 2026 conference to be held in August. - We have been discussing this week on Slack: *Sunday March 8 – Saturday March 14.* The week is helpful for us for a couple of reasons: 1) James Cummings can host us in Newcastle then (and Martina could host us in Graz). Though we love Graz, the consensus in Slack was leading us to Newcastle as the better option. 2) This is a much better week for me because (for once) I don't teach in that week. (But if we had to choose a different week, I would make arrangements as I always do.) 3) Several of you had already indicated in Slack that the week is good and also would like to have this arranged in the calendar as soon as we can. I have pinned a poll in Slack <https://tei-c.slack.com/archives/C06291YV55Y/p1764084159650229> that I ask each of you to fill out to indicate dates that would work for you within that week and also just to determine whether most of us can attend then. We can try to find another week if necessary, but I'm really hoping this one will work for us, even if a few of you can only attend part of the time. Many thanks for your help with this important Council F2F!
