Hi all, I'm glad the scheduled time for the IdPy Board meeting works for
most people, based on the meeting polls. I will send the proposed agenda
and motions for a vote in the next few hours.

Everyone should have received a meeting invite on Aug 28. Thank you to the
2 directors who have acknowledged the invitation with an accept/decline
response; I have not heard from the other 5 directors. *Your response to
the meeting invite or this email will help determine who should be included
in the meeting quorum count. *
*If you will not attend the meeting on the 17th and plan to send a proxy
representative* in your absence, please let me know who will attend in your
place by *close of business on Wednesday*. Alternatively, *you may email me
your votes on the motions* listed on the agenda before the scheduled
meeting time. I'll send the motions in the next few hours.
Please let me know if you have any questions!
Best, Laura Paglione

We will wrap up in time to attend the conference dinner.
See you in a few hours!

IdPY Board Meeting/Gathering

Eastern Time - New York

We won't have the full IdPY Board in person at TNC26 this year. We had a
productive conversation in an informal setting during TIIME in February, so
we will be trying something similar at TNC.
Please join us at Henry's Pub Wednesday, Jun 10, located between the
conference and dinner venues. We will plan to chat about the upcoming Town
Hall meeting, and the progress on our technical plans.
I look forward to seeing you there.
