Probably https://www.ietf.org/how/meetings/interim I am surprised the tooling lets you create an interrim meeting without the standard 4 week headway. The obvious workaround for expedience is that any group of people can always have an informal, not IETF "blessed" meeting. Given how actual WG decisions have to be made on the mailing list anyhow, the only difference between any such informal and official (virtual/side) meeting are IMHO really only the processes. For better or worse. IMHO, inoffical side meetings are the best way to solve expediency issues. Just make sure that even more diligence is taken in recording what happened during such a meeting via notes and spend more time presenting summary at the next official meeting and allowing a discussion about it then..
