[Imc-litbl] 1/15 Meeting notes

[Pauline Bartolone]

In attendence: Jay Morris, Pauline B. (notetaker), Sehvilla, Mike Feltes, 
Brian Hagy.

Agenda:

Organizational issues:

1)Is producing weekly timely news too much?
2)Evergreens
3)Limiting MD to two at WEFT at a time
4)Contacting airshifters at WEFT
5)Requests for the PC?
6)Pauline is leaving. Who will co-organize?
7)Syndication- Promo package contents?

1)Realistically, only 2 or 3 LITBL's are produced per month. We should set 
up a system so that there are evergreens that can be rerun, that aren't time 
sensitive. We'll propose to the programming committee that LITBL can be 
played for up to two weeks in a row.   In the mean time, we'll schedule 
people in for each week. We have a list of 16 people that have expressed and 
interest in producing, or have produced in the past.

2)Individual people will be contacted to produce evergreens, or 
non-timesensitive material, that can be played eternally. Please think of 
your own stories, or take one of the topics from past emails. Before Pauline 
leaves in March, she will be reorganizing all past shows, and compiling a 
couple of evergreen MDs. PLease produce evergreens and submit to Pauline by 
the middle of February so the evergreens can be organized properly.

3)The set up at WEFT is confusing for airshifters, because there are all of 
these MD's and notes flying around. Starting in March, we will have only two 
MDs at WEFt, one for evergreens, and one for a new LITBL segment. When you 
put a new MD in the LITBL box at WEFT, put the old MD from last week in the 
IMC box on the right side of Mick Wolf's office. Leave the evergreen 
Minidisc in the WEFT studio at all times.

4)The communication we have with WEFT airshifters needs to be improved. In 
the past, when producers haven't been able to get something to WEFt in time, 
the Airshifters just don't air LITBL. If you cannot produce, please email 
the Wednesday morning airshifter, Steve Scher at cfsjs at eiu.edu, or the 
Monday airshifter at Johnfudog at excite.com, and tell them to play an 
evergreen. This way we can make sure that LITBL gets aired.

5)When Pauline meets with the Programming Committee, she will ask if reruns 
are acceptable, and let them know of the new set up with evergreens and more 
time-sensitive material.

6)Pauline is going to Costa Rica in March. The new evergreen system will 
work with minimal managing, if actualized properly. Cope voluteered to be a 
co-organizer and WEFT correspondant, and Jay is always available on Tuesday 
nights to help people produce shows for Wednesday mornings. Pauline will be 
producing a lot of evergreens before she goes, doing general archiving and 
organizing before she goes. Does anyone else want to step up and take an 
organizational role?

7)We talked about getting LITBL nationally syndicated, and getting some 
revenue for producing. Pauline thinks that she would be able to give LITBL 
the time it deserves with the $ and incentive. She's willing to put together 
a promo package of a few sample shows, and some literature. If someone is 
interested in collaborating on this project, let her know.
