Since we are now several days past our Bylaw-mandated meeting date, I am
announcing that we will have an IRC-based "stub" meeting (there is very
little business to do) on Wednesday 7 July at 2200 UTC. That would be 3
PM Pacific, 6 PM Eastern, 11 PM British/Irish time, and midnight Western
European time.  (The rest of you are on your own for conversions.) This
would be a 2-hour meeting with a closed agenda.

Here's the agenda:

1)      Roll call
2)      Proof of notice (we won't have formal notice this year)
3)      Reading of minutes (to be waived; read 'em yourself at
        http://www.lojban.org/llg/minutes/2003_annual.html)
4)      Officer's reports (to be posted in advance)
5)      Committee reports (the only live committees are the byfy and the
        committee on new bookkeeping procedures; the latter will almost
        certainly disband at the meeting; I expect we'll post reports
        in advance)
6)      Election of new members
7)      Removal of old members
8)      Election of the Board (I presume the incumbents will be running)
9)      Old business
10)     New business

We have the following items of possible old business. All of them are
straw votes at best, since we can't pass any amendments this year due
to the lack of formal notice.

9a) Direct election of officers by the membership instead of the board
9b) Genericizing the kinds of communications allowed in the by-laws
9c) Abolish proxies, or abolish blind proxies.

In addition, we have the following possible new official projects:
Worldcon, jboske, Lojban Java list.

If anyone has new business to propose, please mention it ASAP.
I apologize for the shortness of this notice.
