Subject: [juneau-lug] Meeting Notes
Jim, can you type up the notes you took at the meeting?
Re organization - Toby, Phil, Hans, Jim and myself attended the meeting.
Phil is a programmer, but we didn't really let him get a word in during
the meeting. We had one absolute newbie sit in for the last 15 minutes or
so, and he left with Mandrake 8.0 to try out.
We decided that there will be various jobs given to individuals (Jim has
the details, I'm not sure I remember the final outcome for some of them).
One thing we decided in the last half hour was that we won't have a
"president" per se, but rather a "core." (I know, I know - "Core" is kind
of pretentious for a small-time operation like ours. I (we) have big
ambitions.)
Core as it stands right now consists of Toby, Jim, and myself. Hans had
to leave before we got a firm commitment from him but my impression was
that he is interested. Being in Core means that we have an obligation to
regular participation in the LUG, and an obligation get things done if
need be. We serve the other members. Of course right now there aren't a
lot of other members to serve, but hopefully that will change.
What does this mean for the LUG? Simple - no major decisions can be made
unless Core agrees to it. It does not have to be a unanimous Core
decision, rather a majority decision. (For that reason we should probably
have an odd number in Core, three or five people). There is no one person
in charge, meaning members have more points of contact and we have the
ability to carry on should one of us be AWOL for some reason or other.
Hopefully Core will give some impetus and direction to the LUG and help us
grow.
Thanks to Jim for setting up the meeting room, and to everyone else for
hashing this stuff out. I feel a lot better about our future now.
Cheers,
James
