RE: URGENT - We Need an Instantaneous Response. (That means DO IT NOW !!!)
The motion passed by the Exec was "802 will organize a no-host (w/MTG fee)
basis a meeting for May 14-18, 2001 for 802 WG & TF interim MTGS". Though
gramatically tortuous, it was discussed as an experiment for all of 802.
(Even this is a violation of the LMSC rules Prodecure 1, where treasury
usage for meetings is only authorized for Plenary sessions.)
I view Option #2 as (dare I say it) changing the rules after the vote is
taken. As Treasurer, it is my fiducary duty to make sure an expendature of
this sort is formally authorized by the Exec, especially since it is a
varience to the rules governing the treasury. I don't accept Option #2 as
within the intent of the approved motion.

Bob, what if the interim arrangements are available to all dot groups but
not all of them want to take advantage of it? That is kind of what we have
here. Even more important, many of the groups will be trying this out in
May. We may or may not want to do that again. If some groups do not want
to use this service in the future, is that going to cause you to want to
withdraw your support for the whole idea?
Best regards,
