Re: ISOC Meeting Suggestions

[Blessings Msowoya]

If we agree with the said idea, may we also please provide the ideal date and time. The suggested day and time should be based on each individual and then we can reconcile the dates and time. I suggest this coming Thursday(12th) between 12.30 and 1.30pm(Lunch hour).
Please suggest your own day and time.

I second the idea of an online meeting. I was supposed to have attended the last meeting but failed due to work constraints.

The online meeting would definitely make it easier for more of us to attend regardless of location and I'm sure most of us could set aside a little bit of time if planned properly.

You can definitely count my vote in favor of an online meeting.

I agree with the online meeting as it seems that most of us are busy
and perhaps geographically far apart.

The meeting if done online will be as valid as if done physically.
Please let us second or provide alternative views.
The following are issues that need the meeting(an urgent one perhaps):

1. The registration of the chapter with the registrar general requires
the following:
  a. That we have minutes where resolution of members to have the chapter
  b. That we have office bearers

2. We develop an action plan of chapter which we have to
follow(otherwise the chapter is dead)

3. That we clearly find ways and means of funding the chapter(of
course based on point 2 above)

These are some of the issues that require deliberation. We need to
meet atleast on-line.


Just as a side note, Wisely Phiri also turned up for the last meeting.

Kind regards,
Blessings.
