Thanks! The purpose of this initial meeting is to decide what general form of governance the LUG should adopt. If that issue is settled quickly, then we might move on to drafting a constitution, which would involve creating positions/offices. In considering what offices to create, it might be good to brainstorm the tasks that need to be tended to and then group those tasks under different roles/titles. As you can see, we're starting from scratch. So, bring your thinking cap. :-) Thanks again for your investment. Jason On 12/1/06, Joshua Shriver wrote: > I'm interested in helping out.

No. This list would be an appropriate forum, but we are not quite ready to have that discussion yet. The plan is to meet in person on the first weekend in January (so far the only preferences expressed have been to meet after the LUG meeting tentatively scheduled for Saturday, Jan. 6th.) and assess our resources and options and decide on the direction to take. After that meeting, then we could use this list as a forum to move toward the goals adopted at the special meeting. We haven't yet decided what our goals are and we don't know how many people are going to help and to what degree. So, we're in a holding pattern until after the special meeting. I am encouraged by the response so far. I greatly appreciate everyone's willingness to be involved. I am really looking forward to the special meeting and charting a course forward. Thanks, Jason From jasonmbechtel at gmail.com Tue Dec 12 12:20:51 2006 From: jasonmbechtel at gmail.com (Jason Bechtel) Date: Tue Dec 12 12:21:05 2006 Subject: TALUG-board: VOTE: special meeting date & time Message-ID: Hi, everyone. I first extend a big "THANK YOU" to those who have subscribed to this list and expressed an interest in helping guide the LUG. We couldn't move forward without you. We need to set a date and time for the special organizing meeting on the first weekend in January. So far, the only expressed preferences have been for Saturday (none for Sunday), which is good because it appears Stautzenberger probably wouldn't be open on Sunday anyway. They also reminded me when I confirmed availability that they close at 6:00pm, which is why our meetings run from 2:30-5:30pm. This means that while I initially suggested meeting *after* the regular meeting, we could only do so if we went somewhere else. So, to me, the choice seems to be between meeting *before* the regular meeting (hoping that we schedule enough time to get things done) and meeting *after* the regular meeting at a different location, perhaps at a nearby dining establishment. The "before" meeting time could also be at a nearby dining establishment for that matter, as it will be around lunchtime. As long as we can talk and make decisions, I don't care where we meet. Of course, keep in mind that restaurants are noisier than Stautzenberger. Anyhow, I'd like to call a quick /VOTE/ on whether to meet before or after the regular meeting on Saturday, January 6th. If you vote for "before", please specify your preferred location. Please reply ASAP so I can announce the final meeting time to all lists by this weekend.

I think it sounds like a good plan. My only amendment would be to move up the start time a little so Abdul and I can get set up for the presentation before the 2:30 start time. Let's meet at Stautzenberger at 12:30pm. That way we will have 90 minutes and still have time to set up for the meeting. Feel free to bring your lunch to the meeting or eat beforehand. Unless someone can't make it at 12:30pm, I will make an announcement tomorrow night listing the meeting as being at 12:30pm on Saturday, January 6, 2007. Thanks for the quick feedback everyone.

Of course, you are all welcome to participate (or just observe). The initial response was encouraging, but we could still use a few more people. If you care about the LUG and want to help, here's where you can subscribe to the talug-board mailing list: http://www.uniqsys.com/mailman/listinfo/talug-board/ Please join us at the special meeting that will begin the process of shaping the future of TALUG. It is no small order to make a good thing even better and we need your input and your energy, whatever you can spare. Participation is not a requirement for membership but it is important for the future of the LUG. Thank you all for your efforts thus far. We look forward to building up TALUG together.
