OK, thanks Mako. I am going to try to have a variety of info published in writing so people can review it ahead of time, and your written comments in advance of the meeting would be appreciated even if you won't be able to participate and vote directly.
The top priority for the meeting is getting the near-term grant request authorized because of the January 31st refocusing of WMF GAC and IEG resources. While we're at it, it would be good to get some other business done such as bylaws, officer elections and the trademark agreement. The officer elections and bylaws are important so that we have people who are authorized to take action on behalf of the group regarding the handling of the grant and execution of the tasks that the grant funds.
More info on the agenda to come.

Sorry, I spoke incorrectly but got the meaning right? Or something?
I will be out of town on the 13th and cannot participate remotely in during that period of Tuesday evening. I will also be out of town on on Tuesday the 20th but could participate remotely then.
In any case, you guys can go ahead without me and there's a possibility that I could make the tail end of the meeting.
I will get a room and setup WiFi for the 13th. I will get that event UW NETIDs and the door code to you, Pine.
Later, Mako
