Description

(Split off from https://github.com/w3c/AB-public/issues/283)

How much advance notice is required for all but one meeting type is defined in §3.1.2.1. Meeting Scheduling and Announcements. The one exception is the AC meeting; the advance notice requirements for it are defined in §3.2.4. Advisory Committee Meetings.

We should consider aligning the advance notice requirements. If we're able to fully align them, we could have one set of requirements that apply to all meeting types.
