  • Board:
  • Guillaume:
Professional Engagements are consumming most of my time


  • Bailey:
Ray and I had a meeting with Alex Kohler of PP Bavaria. We went over the basic GA details and clarified the location, tech stuff, etc. They have everything we'll need. I think that we should have a GA meeting soon. I have some ideas for speakers I would like to run by you guys also. Plus we need to get Discourse figured out..and discuss the overall agenda..so much to do and we should get on it sooner rather than later so there's much less stress at GA time. =)
  • Keith:
Etienne and I finished the statutes rewrite. I would like to figure out accomodations for the GA. I have been updating the list of those who are interested in attending. There are several people who are interested in attending if we can assist with accomodations. We need to write them back. Also, I want to set up a panel conversation with about 5 speakers, which would be separate from the keynotes. I could moderate a debate.
  • Koen:
not present
  • Adam:
Cemetary Mediteraean Campagne... Seebrücke taking speed in Germany, preparing international action..


  • Raymond:
Nothing to report
  • Thomas:
with the help of our cashiers we found a way to get me access to the swiss bank account, the advice found will be followed

6 AOB - Any other business

Do we want to set up a separate GA meeting?
We could use a meeting the week after the next board meeting. We need to finalize a few things first. Once Discourse is set up, we will need to have a long talk about the motions that we will be able to fit into the GA, which won't logjam our GA.
Next week (Thursday at 21:00?) we will have a meeting with the French pirates, who will show us their Congressus and also have a small Discourse server perhaps.
Also, the Swiss Discourse server can be made available. That would potentially be very helpful, if we can't set up our own server soon.

Olaf? will be able to assist.

Do we want to revise the hours of our meetings?
Should we change the hour for the 08:00 meeting to 09:00? Bailey would adapt. Let's play it by ear, try to see what everyone prefers before the next 08:00 slot. Keith will propose something before the next meeting. We should be fine for the 14:00 meeting. Bailey will adapt.
ECOSOC. Events are over in NY. Our reps are looking for other events? Events are moving back to Geneva. Now is a good time for our
Statute revisions.
We set up two types of statute revisions, Tier One will need GA approval. We will only have sufficient time to deal with a portion of these motions at the GA. Tier Two are grammatical revisions. We fixed some of the English and made the abbreviations consistent. These changes should be announced, but they should not need individual approval.
