Everyone interested to join this session, please add your options - the earlier, the better, I'm afraid. Thanks and best regards, Frank [1] http://doodle.com/my2i48x2fghce35r From frank.loebe at informatik.uni-leipzig.de Sun Aug 24 20:14:00 2014 From: frank.loebe at informatik.uni-leipzig.de (Frank Loebe) Date: Sun, 24 Aug 2014 20:14:00 +0200 Subject: [iaoa-bylaws] Possibly meet on Mon, Aug 25, 10-12 EDT / 16-18 CEST (?)

It looks (increasingly) worse to me from Tuesday on. BTW, thanks for your quick reactions! I'm sorry for the short notice / time for arrangements, but: @Michael: 1.) Would you be available for the Bylaws meeting tomorrow between 10:00-12:00 EDT? 2.) Is the conference line available at that time? @Leo: 3.) Are you interested to join that meeting (which is not an EC meeting), ignoring the scheduling issue? 4.) If yes to 3., could you join tomorrow between 10:00-12:00 EDT? For those who participated in the doodle, I propose to tentatively think of that time slot and keep an eye on further communication. @Oliver: Should I add you to the [iaoa-bylaws] mailing list?

(_not EC_, but Bylaws Committee) Message-ID: <042901cfbff8$23a1e1c0$6ae5a540$@informatik.uni-leipzig.de> Dear all, Michael cannot attend a Bylaws meeting at any time on Monday (and I do not have feedback on whether on Tuesday), but he suggests that we go ahead without him. The conference line is available. While I'm not overly comfortable with this solution and unless anyone else raises objections, I suggest that those interested and available convene for a Bylaws Committee meeting on Monday, Aug 25, 10:00-12:00 EDT / 16:00-18:00 CEST . Please see the call details below (regular Skype and chat room; I hope I can start the call without the problems from last week). If you're listed as an expected participant but will not join, please let me or [iaoa-bylaws] know. Likewise, if you have general objections w.r.t. the meeting. Remembering our last EC meeting, I'd see the main task for the meeting in confirming or modifying Marion's adaptations for Switzerland and perhaps identifying passages of high relevance for tax exemption (which should remain stable afterwards), such that the resulting intermediate version can be the basis for a preliminary tax exemption request. Further changes may be noted for later revisions in the course of relocation. NB: This is my current understanding of this meeting's purpose, please mention if yours deviates. I suggest to limit further communication to [iaoa-bylaws], having cc-ed [iaoa-council] so far just due to the short notice of the meeting.

The only edit I've made was to add the list of participants. In brief summary, during the meeting we have gone through the _Statute_ document (v4) [1] and completed this pass eventually, i.e., the remaining open issues therein should not be relevant for the submission for the preliminary tax exemption request (PTER). The _Bylaws_ document (v4) [2] requires further work, and afterwards we should check the cross-references. Most of the remaining tasks prior to the PTER were adopted by Marion (Thanks for that!), see action items below, mainly (1) to implement easy edits in the Bylaws [2] (if possible, until early next week (Sep 1-5)) and (2) to draft the accompanying letter for the PTER (at a later point). Regarding debatable issues in the Bylaws (focusing on those relevant for the PTER), Marion, Fabian, and myself agreed at the end of the meeting and suggest to all to discuss these by email preferably prior to the next EC meeting, n.109 on Sep 03. @Those present in the meeting: Please correct me where I could be mistaken.
