Does anyone want to make some closing statements about the following<br>
loomio polls?<br>

<br>
It would be good to wrap them up. To add a little more to my no vote<br>
on the second proposal - I did see that the proposal was 'two or more'<br>
but I think that it allows the situation where two people can<br>
effectively lock other MWG members out of the process if they happen<br>
to move a little more slowly or have other pressures at that specific<br>
time.<br>
<br>
For this reason I felt it better to ask that the MWG lead become a<br>
little more proactive about contacting the MWG, maybe setting a<br>
monthly or bimonthly meeting cadence with more frequent meetings after<br>
known membership influx events (eg a conference). I think this is<br>
something for the MWG to discuss, and I know it is hard, my own record<br>
with the O&CWG is not stellar for sure.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
