@peterharris could you do me a favour and add all the proposed board members under "Elect Board" and tag them using their handles. And follow up with anyone we have missing from Loomio.

Call an EGM for the end of October Closed Tue 3 Oct 2017 10:04AM
The best balance between having our signatory members + some board members in attendance is the 26th October 2017.
The Interim Board therefore calls an Extraordinary General Meeting for 4pm GMT on the 26th October 2017 to held at 12 Newmarket, Dublin, Ireland + online around the world. :)
Hello All,
We have been giving people some time to consider pre-induction documentation, and we have a few outstanding things to work on for the EGM, but it is important that set a date and work towards it.
I propose that we call a meeting with the follow agenda;
Agenda for EGM
- Adopt Standing Orders
- Elect the Board
- Appoint the Executive Team
- Approve Current Members
- Approve Additional Founder Members
- Approve our Operating Manual
- Approve our Code of Conduct
I am recommending we hold the meeting between the 20th October - 27th October. Any member can add additional dates, times to the time poll.
This poll will run for a week - I suggest adding your best times now, and returning to it at the end to finalise your times.
We will need a quorum of 5 signatory members + all the prospective board members (if possible).
Once this proposal finishes the following process will begin:
- Peter + Sam to organise appropriate video conference platform, and make this accessible for all members on the day
- give all founding members notice of the meeting (by email and with an invitation to an "EGM 2017" sub-group + details of video conferencing.
- all the agenda points will be added to the sub-group as threads - with the information required for the decision
- preliminary discussion can take place, and if agreed, we can start preliminary votes on Loomio prior to meeting Meeting to proceed on the day (this will speed up the actual meeting).
- meeting to proceed on day according to standing order adopted
- follow up on Loomio if required

Sorry about the "triple post". Just one question: it's 6 PM in what time standard?
Sam Toland Fri 22 Sep 2017 11:36AM
@stephmerchak - all the times should be local (what you see is your local time, what I see is my local time)
Stephanie Merchak Fri 22 Sep 2017 2:12PM
Ok great! Thanks for the clarification.
Sam Toland Wed 27 Sep 2017 10:42AM

Everyone ready for the EGM? Closed Tue 24 Oct 2017 5:36PM
I just wanted to make sure if everyone is ready for the EGM on Thursday 26th October?
Be sure to ask clarifying questions in this thread (or any of the sub-threads for each agenda item).
And be sure to let us know if you can't make the meeting.
Looking forward to it! :)
