[Wpfw-lsb] RE: Agendizing Matters for LSB Meetings

[Simin Royanian]

This is addressed to Jim Brown and the whole of LSB
for determination. It is not to be just answered by
Sarah. The problem has been that everytime someone
brings up a question it is ignored by Jim and answered
by Sara and then Sara thinks people are unfairly
criticizing her.
The issues raised are not personal attacks on anybody.
They are political and procedural issues of
importance.

In fact ,I do not want to waste time arguing in EM's
the decision for setting up agenda and the priority
for items. This issue  HAS TO BE ON THE AGENDA NEXT
TIME.

I was not aware that it is up to the Secretary to
deside the answers to the questions raised about the
process for seting up agendas. Eventhough the agenda
may be sent out by the secretary, it has to be
developed by the Chair with input from the LSB.
The process for puting items in agenda should have
been clear from the meeting. Several persons, incluing
me, have asked this same question before.  
In addition all the burden of taking care of this
issues must not be put on one person, the secratary,
so that a family emergency creats undue burden on her
and delays our process

That is probably true, but who is going to judge which
item will be included and which one will not be
included?

Yes, but to know how agendas are set is very essential
and has not been decided or clarified.

Several of us have brought this point to the
atttention of alll that one of the meetings under
consideration was a meeting of the committee of all
and attendace at that meeting must not be counted
against anyone.
So I hope that this item will be in the form of a
quick motion to change the notes to reflect that and
not a long discussion.

Respectfully submitted,
