  • Apologies to WT members who regularly can not make the new meeting time.  They are invited (a) to remain on WT B by working with us online and keeping up with the meeting minutes or (b) to switch to another Improvements WT that better fits their schedules.  (In other WTs, some members are participating by reading the minutes and working online.)

Seth to create a version of Simplified At-Large Improvements Outline that (a) only includes recommendations assigned to WT B (Recs 3, 4, 7, and 9) or (b) has those tabs arranged next to each other, for convenience.  Status:  Done; a version of Outline containing only WT B’s recommendations is now available.

Matthias to set up a wiki page (to be linked to from WT B workspace) on which all RALOs’ bylaws and bylaw changes under consideration are compared.  Status:  Done, contingent on agenda (discussion) item below.

  • Status:  Done.

c.  Seth to inform Heidi that, in Cartagena, WT B (a) would like informal breakfast meeting on Thur. and (b) will participate in Improvements update during ALAC/Regional Wrap-Up.

  • Meeting forms due on 3 Nov
  • Progress report by each Improvements WT to be presented at end of ALAC and Regional Wrap-Up Session.  (Session extended by 30 min., giving each WT about 7 min.)
  • Would WT C also like its own (60-min.) meeting in Cartagena?  If so, should it be a formal (staff support, remote participation if nec., etc.) or informal (in a side room, during a meal, etc.) meeting?  Formal meeting is certainly possible but more difficult to plan, given the schedule.
