Re: [Morfree] Lets get started.

I am cross posting this to both MorLUG and MorFree. Sorry if you get it 
twice 

IIRC, the goal that David Krovich put forth originally was to have a 
constitution in place and be able to hold elections after 1 year. Well, 
according to the date stamps on my emails that is coming up in a couple 
of months.

I propose that we start getting on the ball about this.

A basic agenda, that I think would be useful at this point in time 
would be something like this (i'm pulling all of this from previous 
emails and meetings):

1) Discuss Mission statement, approve.
2) Discuss Membership and Dues
3) draft constitution ... possibly form a sub-group that can meet and 
hammer it out.
4) get an update on the student organization
5) outline ideas for future meetings
6) determine a time and place to hold future meetings on regular 
intervals, that seems to fit most people's schedules.

I'd like to suggest the dates of October 26th or October 27th (thats 
the week after next) to have a meeting to figure out where to go from 
here and get everything moving that needs to be accomplished by years 
end.

I was also thinking that it might be fun to come up with a group 
project. Something that we can develop as a group, and release under a

The update, of course, is that there is no update   The papers are 
filled out and last I saw them campus mailed off to kro: they lacked a 
constitution.  Since getting the organization registered in time for 
the beginning of the fall semester is no longer a useful goal, this can 
wait until there is a Morfree (or whatever it ends up being) 
constitution from which to swipe considerable portions.

I can no longer say that I would be a useful president thanks to my 
ever-changing and ever-demanding night schedule.  I would take the 
"second officer needed for founding" role or do anything I can to help 
with the founding of the organization, however.

Surprisingly enough, I'm actually not working either of those 
days--yet--that I know of.

I'm hoping that enough people show up to start working on things that 
we need to get done.
