[Iswg3906.organizers] ACT Dinner Carshare

[Niki Thorne]

i'm totally cool with carshare being used for ACT dinner/ occasional
emergency/urgent decisions not always following ideal process, but I don't
think you need my input on the decision. (subcommittees making autonomous
decisions and all that)

Tony I think we said we'd keep the main list for everyone to communicate
with each other, and that we'd also have a separate list for just your
subcommittee and stuff that doesn't involve me and jess.  I'd have to look
over my notes to know for sure what we decided though.

David Pie, I would love to catch you up some more on me and jess's thoughts
and schemings sometime soon if you want, maybe with dinner.  i'm sure
you'll be all caught up on friday/next mtg regardless.  miss you though!

take care everyone,
~~Niki
