Heya,

This is just a small reminder that our monthly online meetings are always scheduled on the 19th of every month and starts at @ 20h EST and 19h PST.  It generally lasts 2h.

Feel free to input on what would like to bring on the agenda.

[SpudsBM]

6 mst?

[Mikkel Paulson]

That should be 20h EDT and 17h (5:00 PM) PDT. Yes, it's 6:00 PM MDT.

[Mike Bleskie]

I'll be there, as always.

How about a MrSpeaker (formerly Stenobot) update, is he ready?

[Mikkel Paulson]

Working on it. Doing the forum theme and revising the membership card has occupied my attention recently.

[Mikkel Paulson]

The following items will appear on the meeting agenda. More will likely be added before the meeting date.

MikkelPaulson to move that the voting period be permanently reduced from 60 seconds to 45 seconds.
Nuitari to move that Joe Baptista's membership in the Pirate Party of Canada be revoked. [1] [2]
MikkelPaulson to move that the section of the constitution related to the election of directors be referred to the forum for review to be amended on July 19th, the election then to be called and to take place no later than August 19th.
MikkelPaulson to move that a select committee be struck to identify the preferred ridings in which to run candidates and allocate resources, to report its findings at the July 19th General Meeting.

If I'm missing anything, please let me know.

[CraigNobbs]

Wasn't there supposed to be something about the candidates or something?

Also, and it's just the way I am, but I don't like setting a list of things to vote upon when all of the information about that topic hasn't been made public... so I do have to say that a couple of those items of which the information isn't publicly available to the general PPoC populous does't sit will with me being set as topics to be voted upon.

While Mikkel and I have discussed this point in other topics/posts already, it seems like this warranted a minor duplication of my thoughts on this.

[Mikkel Paulson]

Wasn't there supposed to be something about the candidates or something?

All three applications (yours, mine, and Jake's) can be voted on as early as June 17th or as late as July 21st. Specifically, the following dates are allowable for each candidate:

Mikkel Paulson (Edmonton-Leduc): June 9-July 21
Craig Nobbs (Langley): June 10-July 22
Jake Daynes (Nanaimo-Alberni): June 17-July 29

That said, I would like to schedule a meeting in July exclusively devoted to the election of candidates and directors. We simply don't have the infrastructure (web and telephone voting) in place yet to maximize potential participation. I'd like to ignore that point for the time being if there are no objections.

Also, and it's just the way I am, but I don't like setting a list of things to vote upon when all of the information about that topic hasn't been made public... so I do have to say that a couple of those items of which the information isn't publicly available to the general PPoC populous does't sit will with me being set as topics to be voted upon.

As I said to you and will repeat for the edification of other readers, I'll ask some more important people to post details on the subjects.

[Thomas]

I can't make it, is there any other way to make my votes?

[Mikkel Paulson]

No promises, but I'll try.

[btrower]

On the old forums it was alleged that I had been sent a member number. I have no record of such. Can someone get back to me on that? Also, it is still unclear to me how the meeting will be conducted. That is, last time I tried, I was not able to get on to IRC anyway. If that has been sorted out, are there specific instructions somewhere?

[Mikkel Paulson]

Yeah, sorry about the technical issues at the last meeting. They should be sorted out now. I'll ask Nuitari to look up your member number for you.

[CraigNobbs]

Is there a place that the IRC server information is posted / stickied?  I don't have it and am wondering where one would find it.

Craig

[Mikkel Paulson]

It's available right on the Chat page.

[Nuitari]

The member numbers were sent in the last newsletter, a reminder of the meeting will be sent on Friday with the member number
