Hey all,

 

In regards to Sven’s comments, I think official positions would make it easier so that we could have designated persons doing designated work (i.e. the secretary takes notes). In terms of the Connecticut mailing list, if we can, we should merge it into the Boston one and maybe create a New England list, because the Connecticut list had one post in around five years until we started using it this summer. In terms of elections, I am all for doing something online, but do we want to have a meeting on Saturday? If not, then I need to know soon so that we can cancel it and notify people that we are doing an about-face on something that we planned for months. I do like Scott’s idea of a secret ballot should we decide to go that way, and I would love to learn how to do that so that we can adequately figure this stuff out in time.

 

In terms to discussing things off the list, I have been in contact with AffCom and Pharos in regards to becoming a user group. A summary of the AffCom stuff was the signing of the User Group Agreement alongside Maia, and all that needs to be done is to copy the names from the July event over onto the WMNE page, to show current interest and to update it. In terms of discussions with Pharos, I have been mentored by him and talked about the running of the group in order to figure out how to more easily run everything. We haven’t been engaging in any illicit activities, and I have never had any ill will behind it, as Pharos attested in an earlier e-mail. I have also been balancing school and other extracurricular activities, so that is why I haven’t been as consistent as I have wanted to in the past month or so.

 

I hope this answers everything, and I look forward to responses from others.

 

Sincerely,

 

Kevin Rutherford
