We'll have a monthly meeting at the usual time, it looks like, the second Saturday or the month. These will no longer be basically Board meetings. We're going to try focusing on one or two topics, see if more people will come to a more targeted meeting, plus: we'll have a nice archive of audio/ video/ transcript on that topic, so people could go see about just that.



We'll probably just cover what's coming up for IML.



What will we cover this month? We have a few logical things to cover, but also one area of general interest?



1) Upcoming annual Board meeting in May. When exactly to hold it, during International Mr. Leather (IML) weekend.
