Terry 26-May-2007 [19x2] | I move we break for lunch. |
I object to the sixth motion on the grounds that Qtask is a proprietary company, that has a tendency to exclude critics | |
btiffin 26-May-2007 [21] | Objection to the sixth motion noted. The matter will be brought forward for debate at the Second Meeting. |
Gabriele 27-May-2007 [22] | Qtask has a tendency to exclude *trolls*. |
Sunanda 27-May-2007 [23] | I nominate btiffin for Secretary -- he's already in role anyway :-) |
PeterWood 27-May-2007 [24x2] | I was going to nominate him for President |

Sunanda 27-May-2007 [26] | I propose we call the group something fun: like RABBLE. Failing that. I propose we call it something rebolish: like user.r |
btiffin 27-May-2007 [27] | It has been recommended that REWARD be included as a proposed name Representative Worldwide Association of REBOL Developers |

btiffin 27-May-2007 [29] | Point of Information: The last proposal was not the chair's. It came from an outside source. |
Chris 27-May-2007 [30] | I'll second Rabble, it's cute and captures our group dynamic quite well :) |
BrianH 27-May-2007 [31x2] | I would like to put in one of the pre-IRUA proposals the the name: CORE. It is a good in reference that members can feel good about knowing when they figure it out - these references are common among user groups and development projects. On the down side, it is less googleable. |

Chris 27-May-2007 [33] | Boo, down with BrianH. <throws chair> (just demonstrating how a Rabble member deals with divergent views, don't throw me out the meeting) |
