Hi all,
So from today's meetup, we came to the following resolutions:
- *Finance Audit*: *Steve* is to provide an expense sheet of our finances so far for scrutiny by the members. He'll be in touch shortly with more details on that. - *Chapter Registration*: As of now, this is a *high priority* matter for the Chapter. There were some pending matters with the lawyer so I'm ( *Alex*) to meetup with Abbas (who was overseeing this process) next week so that he can hand over this responsibility to me. Updates coming up next week after I meet the lawyer - we aim to register latest by end of 2012 - *Membership structure*: as of now, we don't have a definite way to tell who is a member and who isn't. So we settled on starting a new membership drive to come up with structures of registering members and get out an officla list of the same. *Bruce* will be driving discussions around this and should be in touch shortly. -latest by end of 2012 - *Board Status*: Normal operations of the chapter will from now henceforth be run by chapter members until we have set structures up and running and an official list of registered members seeing that it's not the best time to carry out a board elections - *Projects*: The Chapter will not be actively following up on any projects until the above structures are set. But it is highly encouraged for chapter members to continue doing so at an individual level until the time which WMKE will be in a position to do so.
From today's meeting, I can now say that we are moving towards getting
things on the right track and hope for a much better year in starting 2013. best, Alerx

Hey Dennis,
So far only you and Limoke took a vote to have it tomorrow. As of the pad I created, the extra person listed there is Bruce. I really think we should have the meetup tomorrow from around 11:30. I'll make some calls and update you by 10 am.

Been following this issue for a while and i must say i have restrained myself from being judgmental , Steve, there is no justification for your actions whatsoever ,BUT your admission is a step in the right direction , We have learned our lesson albeit with a painful experience ,its a learning process & WMKE will emerge stronger . I want to believe that if we had the structures in place ,the unfortunate incident will not have occurred ,i call upon WMKE members to rededicate themselves to the activities of this young chapter , to the board,registration of WMKE is long overdue ,an audit of the expenditure is required & finally the issue of joint account .
My regards!
Bruce.
