Yeah, not in support of the 8th. The CFM only lasting for a week is a great idea, but I still think V&P should start at the same time. The CFM is mostly just for the Community and doesn’t have anything ‘required’ of the helpers other than maybe butting in every once in a while.

Starting both of them at the same time could give the COTP more time to get through it’s votes and therefore we able to have phases. If not, the phases would be way too rushed in my opinion. The CFM running in the background could also give valuable feedback that may be beneficial to the COTP vote.

It’ll also give the Head Helper the ability to propose more votes, and if they are out of votes, they can end the meeting early and give them a rest rather than having the COTP Meeting continually run right after one has ended because it really took that long. I can understand how tiring it is to take a day rest and then realise that there’s another meeting the next day. The COA even shortened the meeting for this reason.
