This came out just yesterday afternoon, my time. I immediately wrote to Dan
Nagle and the J3 subgroup heads to get some initial thoughts on how J3 and
WG5 should handle this. I haven't heard from Dan yet, but did get some
ideas from others.

From the WG5 side, which is where I could make a decision, my inclination
is to just cancel the WG5 meeting for 2020. WG5 doesn't have any real
business at this time - we've already agreed on the 202X work list, aren't
discussing 202Y proposals yet, and don't have a corrigendum to discuss. So
even a virtual WG5 meeting seems less useful at this time. Our 2021 meeting
is scheduled for late June in Manchester, UK, and I very much hope the
world will be in a place by then where we can do that.

When WG5 and J3 meet together, the WG5 members are very helpful in
contributing to J3's work on technical papers, but that can still happen.
There's already been a lot of discussion on the J3 email list about
providing J3 an online space for discussing/developing the technical work.
The idea I have is to set up a discussion board on the J3 website for J3
(and WG5) members to do the work that usually happens in subgroup meetings.
My hope is that we can transition to doing more of this work between
meetings than we have been in the recent past, but this can't be a complete
substitute for the personal interactions we get when we meet physically - I
hope we can get back to that next year.

It is clear that the pandemic is going to affect the 202X schedule, but how
much it does so greatly depends on how well we shift into working online.
This is going to be a major change for many of you, but I have confidence
that we can pull this off.

It's not my decision to make about what to do regarding J3's meeting - look
to hear from Dan about that.

WG5 members (which of course includes J3) - does it seem reasonable to just
cancel the 2020 WG5 meeting? J3 work can continue online and WG5 folk are
welcome to participate as usual. You can reply directly to me in email, or
to the group, but if you reply to the list *please make sure you do so to
the WG5 list and not J3*. Thanks.
