Thanks Josh,
Pono, let's do 16:00, that's noon for us here in EST.
I'll put it on the calendar, we can use our BBB here unless Pono has an alternative:
Video Link: https://digimedia1.r2.enst.fr/b/mar-9wm-vj2 Calendar: https://inkscape.org/cals/event/29/
This is a tentative agenda for tomorrow:
* The right way to run meetings; sticking to agendas, having tasks, making sure tasks get done. * Should we rotate the meeting president (this is the person that presides over the meeting, not a leadership thing) * Setting regular meeting time. The frequency of meetings, announcing, calendars, etc. * Having a secretary who has a protocol of where to put recordings, notes, transcripts and other important data so the whole community will know. (I'm interested in doing this) * How much responsibility should committee members have? How much work should be expected for this position? * And if we have time, we can practice vote: Rename "Inkscape Board" to "Inkscape Committee" in all locations.
We'll probably talk about some other stuff. But let me know if there's something urgent we should add/change in this list before tomorrow.
Thanks everyone!
Best Regards, Martin Owens

I've added my times. I get my 2nd vax shot on Tuesday, and I

to be ill for the following days like I was for the last one,
so
Friday works best for me. Thanks for setting this up, Pono! -C

Hi Pono,
It looks like Marc isn't available at the moment, so we'll
have
to
proceed without his input/dates. And it looks like we've
run
through
the time poll we already did.
Could you set up a new poll and we'll put together a date
for
our
meeting?
Thanks and sorry for the delays.
Best Regards, Martin Owens
