Subject: [llg-members] 2005 LLG Annual Meeting Announcement
From: Robin Lee Powell <rlpowell@digitalkingdom.org>
To: llg-members@lojban.org
Date: Wed, 2 Nov 2005 12:24:29 -0800

This year's meeting is going to take place on the mailing list
during the month of November.  John Cowan is chairing.  The meeting
will take place in a format as much like a face-to-face meeting as
possible; that is, motions, discussion, and voting will all be
interspersed as the chair determines is appropriate.

The one exception to that format is that voting for officers will
close at the end of the 3rd week in November (that is, Sunday the
20th of November 2005) so I can give the government some paperwork
they need.

Some general notes:

    Non-LLG members who wish to observe will be added to the mailing
    list on an ad hoc basis.  If you feel the need to discuss
    something that requires their non-presence, send me private
    e-mail and I'll figure something out.  As this has basically
    never happened before, I'm not especially worried.

    All standing proxies are hereby invalidated.  This is a
    vote-by-mail situation, and everyone is present on the mailing
    list.  If you're going to be away from e-mail for the entire
    voting period and really need to proxy, please say so, but you
    must make a new proxy statement this year.


Here's the agenda:

1)      Roll call

    This is waived because the meeting is on the mailing list, which
    has been verified to have a valid e-mail address for all
    members.

    In lieu of roll call, I will be making a list at the end of all
    memebers who did not directly participate in the meeting, for
    use next year.

2)      Reading of minutes 

    Waived.  Read them yourself at
    http://www.lojban.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=LLG%202004%20Annual%20Meeting%20Minutes

    The vote to accept those minutes will occur here.

3)      Officer's reports

4)      Committee reports

5)      Election of new members

6)      Removal of old members

                Members not attending, even by proxy, last year:
                Barton, Dave
                Burgess, Gary
                Daniel, Craig
                DeLong, Jordan
                Dyke, Gregory
                Lynch, Keith
                Miles-Lasseter, Alexandra
                O'Sullivan, Paul Francis
                Raizen, Adam
                Reed, Theodore
                Twery, David
                Vilva, Veijo
                Whitlock, Tommy
                Le Du, Yann

7)      Election of the Board

    Currently, only the incumbents are running.  I'd *really* like
    to see some new blood because, frankly, most of the current
    board isn't doing much of anything.  So if you'd like to get
    involved, please speak up!

8)      Old business

    I'm not aware of any.

9)      New business

    The BPFK is a bit stagnant right now, and a large part of the
    reason is that only about 3 of the commissioners are really
    active.  I would dearly love to see more active BPFK
    commissioners, but a pretty firm grasp of Lojban is definately a
    prerequisite.  I see no reason to limit this to LLG members, so
    please speak up if you know someone outside of the LLG who could
    help!

    Votes to accept new members will be welcome here.
