[wplug-board] Draft Agenda for Wednesday, 1/18/2006

[David Ostroske]

Here's the draft agenda for the meeting on Wednesday, at 7pm, in Wean
8220 at CMU. It looks a lot like the agenda for December 14th. I've
still got a ton of heartache over how poorly that one went, but I feel
confident that we can do better this time around.

Draft Agenda for WPLUG Monthly Board Meeting
8220 Wean Hall, Wednesday, January 18th, 2005

MINUTES
The old draft minutes for 12/3/2005 are at the link below. I need to
repost the official minutes, with the changes that we made on December
14th.

As for December 14th. I'll send what I've got, which isn't much, under
separate cover.

OFFICERS' AND COMMITTEE REPORTS
* Chair
Each of the officers gets to make a report. Bill, have you got
anything to report?

* Vice-Chair
Beth, have you got anything new to report? If not, could you give me a
recap of your trip to San Diego?

* Secretary
We've got another new member, which is good. I'll give you all the
details at the meeting.

I need to work on some sort of proposal to coordinate meeting
announcements with the Program Committee. I got nothing so far.

I haven't talked to Mark Dalrymple in a while, so we still don't have
an official place to post official minutes. I'll keep using the
wplug-board and -members lists to post the minutes, and as soon as we
get a place to post minutes, I'll send links to it to the membership.

* Treasurer
Patrick, have you got anything?

* Internet Committee
Anything to report? We should note that due to his new job and his
relocation, James O'Kane had to turn down his provisional committee
membership.

* Program Committee
Beth, has events at wplug.org been created yet? This was the address that
people could send possible ideas for GUM topics etc. to, and would be
forwarded to the Program Committee and the Board.

Also: what are the events for the next few months?

* Newsletter Committee
You all had a chance to meet on January 7th. What came out of that?
Bill, can you field this one?

* ErieLUG Revival Committee
Chris, have you got anything? What's the state of the erielug.org domain?

UNFINISHED BUSINESS
* Fund disbursement/reimbursement
Patrick, you had proposed this funding policy, which I've linked to
here. We'll take up a motion to adopt this policy.

NEW BUSINESS
* Possible refinement to PR Committee language. Some debate and
enlightenment on the -plan list led to Vance's suggestion that the
Vice-Chair be made an ex-officio member of the PR Committee. It's
really too late for us to propose any more changes to this language,
but should we try anyway?

* Is there anything else that we need to do? Someone on the -plan list
had mentioned that we should advertise our events on
businesscalendar.org . If we have time at the end of the meeting, I'll
propose that we begin to do just that.
