Y'know, I think it might be a good idea for us to have a "business
meeting" - not a show for the public at the library, but maybe at
someone's home or a restaurant or something.  I'd like to have a
discussion about the meeting frequency, and also talk about some of
the other things we could be doing as a group.

Maybe it would be a good idea to have the larger meetings, like the
Fukaya ones have been, only every 2 or 3 months, and have smaller
private meetings in the "off" 2 or 3 months?

I have several of my own ideas, but getting the right people together isn't very
easy. We are very spread out around the Bay Area and East Bay.

We have over 30 active members. How many of them would you expect to be at a
"business meeting"? Less than 10? If they are all active members, then they
would all have the right to be given an invitation. Finding a restaurant to have
all these people meet at that is in a central location might be harder than it
seems. Or we would need to find a member with a house large enough for everyone
to attend, and who is willing to have that many people over in the first place.
My little one bedroom apartment isn't nearly big enough. I think having a closed
door, windows closed, no visible sign of what's going on inside, member only
meeting for one hour before each and every quarterly meeting may be the easiest
way to go. Unless we all meet at your house!  :)
