Thanks Dave:
We'll be happy to add that item to the agenda. Seeing as you will not be
able to participate, feel free to send me any specifics about the agenda
item.
I think we will look very briefly (e.g. 5-10 minutes) at the procedure
for announcing a meeting, getting involvement coordinated, and how to
handle contingencies; we will document that and post them to the
wiki...so if you have any ideas pass them along either to the list or to
myself.
Any other chapter business agenda items from anyone? We will try to keep
all the chapter formalities to 20 minutes unless there is a burning
need. After all, we probably just want the pizza, a couple presentations
that might improve how we do our work and an isolated LAN ;-)

I will not be there, and will not be in Victoria either.
If it turns out to be an official chapter meeting,
then I'd like the following to be on the agenda.
When the meeting was postponed in February:
"OSGeo BC Chapter meeting **postponed to next fiscal**"
http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/osgeo-bc/2008-February/thread.htmlI said:
---------------------------------------------------
This needs to be on the agenda for the next chapter meeting.
I disagree with the notion that meetings can be postponed
without discussion and voting by chapter members (unless
of course the chapter membership votes to confer that
capability to the chapter's executive).
---------------------------------------------------
I received a private email that agreed that it should
be discussed at the next meeting, and a similar sentiment
was expressed in conversations with two other members.
