Yesterday (10/31) I did the "noble" deed. I submitted my paperwork for consideration for the office of Director. Now it is up to the nominating committee to...
Dear Dan: Speaking as someone who also felt the call to put up or shut up--and had the dubious fortune to win! <G>--may I extend my congratulations for your...
Regarding "gaps" in bylaws allowing for online elections, you can check the Orange County STC Bylaws, where we changed some of the wording. We (Orange County...
... Not to sound trite, but our bylaws ARE the process. So, they're written such that you can read them from the beginning to the end and see things in the...
Bloody vikings! Can the list enrollment be moderated, please? All spam sent to it is coming through as valid given it's from a trusted source. Thanks, -- Bill...
That's odd, Bill. I get an occasional spam coming through, but most are sent to my bulk mail. I can live with a spam message now and again. I think it would be...
I received a note from Ann Wiley today. She is the manager of the Online SIG. She mentioned that the SIG is working on a new forum for members. I pasted that...
... I personally look forward to the day when our members can post our views freely for all of our fellow members to read. I'll be a frequent poster. Hopefully...
... I know a guy, who knows a guy, who's met these other guys who said they were building such a thing. From what I hear, those guys are honest brokers and...
Here is some more detail from Ann Wiley in response to questions I had about the STC Forum: snip ... there a blueprint document available for us to review? ...
... The feeds are dynamic, spawned by the forum app upon user request. Here's an idea of the possibilities: http://docs.punbb.org/dev.html#syndication ...
Hi John, This is a belated follow-up to the note you posted to this group after I had posted my transcript of the Denver Board meeting. You mentioned that you...
Joe, I picked up on Romano's remark during the localized dues discussion about wanting to move as many members into virtual communities as possible in your...
... That really is the most striking thing. I wish I knew exactly what it means. Depending on the answer, there might be a colossal mistake playing out....
Dan, When I read Joe's transcript I saw the same thing. I, too, wrote to "Ask STC" and never received a reply. A few days after posting the question. I...
... What you *do* get that can't be had elsewhere is chapters. Ultimately that's the thing that anybody paying his own dues will justify them against. Even if...

Sherry, Thank you for the clarification. I appreciate it and I'm sure this falls within Joe's invitation to clarify or correct what he was able to capture at...
Hello everyone I've read with interest Joe's posting of notes from the Denver board meeting. Joe's recording of the actual converations are reasonably ...
... Actually...not the case. We're out here trying to do our damndest to figure out what STC is "thinking" and what direction it is heading. Knowing its...
Wow... It would be interesting to see if board members started "going for the quote" rather than for a solution. STC has a hard enough time getting volunteers....
Thank you, Bob! I concur with this representation of the minutes. Although there may be dialogue missing in the minutes, it would take a court reporter to...
Agreed. It was nice to have Joe's notes to see the thought process and the conversations, but these should be for background info only and shouldn't be...
Sherry, you are right. The Board report should be about substance. The problem is that the report does not provide any substance about the more contentious...
<grin> Joe, I never hammer the messenger. Been hammered here way too many times myself to do that! On the specifics of the thread, the STC board has never...
