Would anyone like to meet up sometime before Sue comes in February? I am going to be in and out of Toronto from August to early September, so if anyone in the GTA would like to have a meetup this summer, send me a private email and if there is interest from a few people I'll get back to the group. Alternatively, we could wait and meet in January before she gets here just so we look more prepared. Jeffery Nichols (User:Arctic.gnome)

Indeed, I think that something like this should be happening in every locus that is likely to have someone going to Toronto. Penciling in a February national meeting in Toronto gives every community the entire fall for having a get together. An important point to be discussed at these meetings isjust what WMC would be doing once it's organized.
I don't see the by-laws as a big sticking point. I know that you, Jeff, and I have spent a considerable amount of time on these. The results have been reasonable even if we don't agree on every point. What's really missing is a decision making mechanism where we can all feel confident that we have general agreement on something. Hopefully, a national meeting will deal with that.
