comments (format: commenter name: comment)
LP: 4/5 FOF - I'd maybe like to see alternation between two days based on a broad poll, in order that nobody is permanently blocked from attending. Could also just make a note to try and have a feedback mechanism such that ppl can let us know it's blocking them.
p: 2025 april 7 - here is a rephrasing of the friendly ammendments:
the meetings will happen the first available thursday evening of every month. if this is a problem for anyone they are welcome to make a proposal to change this system.
the meetings will happen the first available saturday afternoon of every month. if this is a problem for anyone they are welcome to make a proposal to change this system.
alternate between the first available thursday evening and the first available saturday afternoon of every month
post the potential meetings dates for the next meeting in the spokescouncil chat. we would announce in the chat that only delegates should vote on the dates.
