The caucus meeting on Monday seems very important. Slipping a little note in minutes that says "around the role of editors" seems a little underplayed. This has to do with the whole operating structure of the public i - which would also afftect every other thing including vision and content. It seems fairly significant. Shouldn't we get a note out to the IMC list announcing what exactly a caucus is and what in particular is happening here. I understand there are some people not involved in "print" exactly for the reason that they don't like the "role of editors"
Then there is the problem of having a meeting in a bar.
If you call the meeting at 6pm and say you are going to a bar at 6:10 ... then people will need to order, etc. There will be no meeting until at least 6:30 probably 7pm.
I have a problem with having a meeting in a bar anyway. There are people who will not go to/ do not feel comfortable in bars. It is NO place to have a business meeting. It is not inclusive AND not condusive to a productive meeting.
I have a plan I would like to present. I can be there at 6pm and stay til 6:45 at which time I have to leave to teach class. I am willing to write my plan up in advance and have it posted.
I propose a 6pm meeting time- promplty- at the IMC. I understand you wanted to go to the Embassy so that people could eat. I'll provide some munchies. If you don't like that you can order a pizza.
I would like to be first on the agenda- so i can present my plan clearly. I think that anyone else who has some alternative ways to think about the structure of the paper should try to have a clear plan down also.
Any objections?
Sandra
