Would someone who was there like to give the list a summary of what happened at tonight's AGM? I couldn't attend but I'm interested in the outcome.
The case for not merging with LA was based on the idea that a future LA committee might go crazy or merely have interests that don't coincide with those of LUV. That was apparently a convincing argument to some people as the motion was not carried. One of the problems with that idea is that AGM attendence is as low as 16 which isn't a statistically significant sampling of LUV members. So even excluding the possibility of 16 people with an agenda attending to take over there's a much better chance of a committee not representing the membership than there is with the much larger voting numbers for LA elections. It took over an hour of discussion and we didn't have time for lightning talks. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
