It sounds like someone else tried that this month (Wednesday February
14th = 2nd wednesday). Did our February meeting not happen at all?

I think we've lost a lot of potential members by not having an easier
way to do this, and I'd like to propose a better process:

1) We already have a "members" email list which is not being used for
anything. Let's make this the list for existing members to talk about
new members: https://sudoroom.org/lists/listinfo/members

2) We can nominate new members by emailing that list. The "declaration
of intent to join" form could also get sent there, and we can use the
thread for nominations. You need 3 nominations to become a member.
Members should only nominate people they've met in person, and they
should say something about their interactions with that person.

3) The "pondering period" starts with the first nomination, and it
ends after 2 weeks.

4) After 2 weeks, if you've had 3 nominations and no blocks, you are a member.

Thoughts?

I showed up for the meeting Wednesday to do this but the meeting had
not begun by 8:45 and I had to leave.

Can I make an appointment with someone to pay some dues in cash and get a card?

Jacques
