Best way to schedule/run an ECAB meeting?

We're using the OOB Change workflow and the CAB Workbench.  We have a weekly scheduled CAB meeting for Normal and Standard changes.  Currently, for Emergency changes, we have meetings that are scheduled ad hoc outside of the CAB Workbench.  The Change Management team would like to start using the CAB Workbench for Emergency changes and have asked for help with setting up the CAB Meeting definition so they can quickly start an ECAB meeting when needed.  

 

We've set up an CAB meeting definition (CAB Type = Emergency) without any scheduling information (because it needs to be ad hoc).  When we go to create a new meeting from it, none of the information from the meeting definition (such as the CAB Manager, Conference Details, Conditions, etc.) are added to that meeting.  Is there a way to create ad hoc meetings from a meeting definition such that it will pull in the details from the meeting definition?

 

How are others running your ECAB meetings with the CAB Workbench?  Would anyone be willing to share how you've configured your ECAB Definition, Schedule, and Meetings?  I feel like I must be missing something obvious and look forward to any feedback I can get.  Thanks!

Bump. Is anyone using CAB Workbench to run ad-hoc ECAB meetings?

Someone please answer this -- I have the same issue.  

Currently I had to create a schedule so there are meetings out there, and when I need one, I go in, pick it the "next one", and edit the date.  This can't be the only way to use this?
