Agenda and Materials Deadline
The meeting agenda and any materials (slides, documents, draft proposals, etc.) must be shared at least 48 hours in advance. The agenda topics should include links to all relevant items.
The meeting may be canceled if there are no pressing issues 48 hours before the meeting. We will use a mailing list to advise of cancellations, which we will try to do as soon as possible. You can join the mailing list by sending an email to hdf-request@freelists.org with ‘subscribe’ in the Subject field OR by visiting https://www.freelists.org/list/hdf. You can also download the calendar invite here.

Preparation
All participants should review materials beforehand. This allows us to utilize our time together for meaningful discussion rather than for information broadcast. If you’re leading an agenda item, please come with specific goals (e.g., "get feedback," "make a decision," "assign next steps").

Start and End on Time
We respect everyone’s time. Meetings will begin and conclude on time. If you arrive late, please review the notes to catch up.
