Hi,

Apologies for sending that out without explanation.  I wanted to make  
sure everyone in the meeting could find the page.

You all should have received invitations  to participate in a google  
document (if not, let me know off list).  I sent invitations as  
Collaborators to all council members and Glen, and sent invitations  
as Viewers to all staff on the the council list.

Once you have accepted the invitation, I believe that going to http:// 
docs.google.com/  should be enough to get you to the documents you  
are sharing.

Over time, if we use this to craft motions, we may need to develop  
some working methods.  E.g. we might follow a practice that only the  
person making the motion should change it (other then the chair/ 
v.chair during a meeting) but that anyone can append a requested  
amendment, and can delete their amendment if the motion is edited to  
incorporate it as a friendly amendment.

Finally, the url below, though not particularly human memory  
friendly, will allow anyone to see the proposed motions being worked  
on without needing to be specifically invited to do so.  As part of  
the experiment I would ask that this url be included in all our  
meeting agendas.

thanks
a.
