Life In 19x19

I was looking for the aga board minutes and noticed that none have been posted since Oct 11. Will any be posted soon?

as I understand it... they have to be approved (in the next month's meeting) before they can be posted.

it may be that they haven't yet been mailed to the webmaster for posting (or he's just behind)

The normal system has been disrupted because the AGA secretary resigned. I'm afraid the best you can do at the moment is read the press releases I have been sending the ejournal. I don't know if there's an easy way to see them all or not.

I'm sorry to hear that Polly has left. She's done stalwart service for the AGA for long enough that I can't count. She was a key member of the organizing team for the 2001 congress in Chicago and was always a cheerful face in the breakfast line at other events.

With the secretary post being vacant, does this mean there will be no minutes at all for the meetings?

No, there are minutes. Andy (!) has been taking them. I'm pretty sure we've approved some more recent ones than the October meeting, so I'm not sure what's going on.

Does this mean elections will include a secretary come a few months from now?

The secretary is appointed, not elected. We need a volunteer...

Speaking of volunteers:

Hows that new president search coming? Surely much of the AGA could have been contacted by now in the search to find someone new.

i guess no updates from the board meeting on the presidential search...

A new batch of minutes have been uploaded.

I had a read over the minutes today, and I must say that the meetings sound pretty tense.

Where does Gordon Catanza want to go? I didn't get which event he wanted to travel to...

The AGA can choose those who are interested to go overseas and represent the AGA in administrative functions.

So why did the secretary leave?
