In light of the recent hoo-haa regarding the insufficiently announced RA meeting,
AND
In light of the fact that I am now involved in setting up "embassy" contents for the CDS, (I'm setting them up in our own New England estate, but the contents can be used anywhere...)
May I ask, and even BEG, that the appropriate authorities consider the accurate upkeep of the CDS calendar of activities of the highest importance. Indeed, I would ask that you strongly consider that any legal notice, such as notices of RA meetings and SC meetings, be REQUIRED to be posted here as a readily available source of information for the public.
The public view of the calendar is located here:
https://www.google.com/calendar/embed?s ... a/New_York
As you can see, the election dates and voter qualification dates have been posted, but there is no RA meeting there since Dec 27, and I see no SC meetings at all. In addition, there are a few educational and social events... but very few.
The essence of our democratic community lies in our events. This calendar system is easily used by any member of the public, and managing it is also easy by anyone with a Google account. We can readily manage the needed security. May I ask that we please use it... and even consider mandating its use for legal events?
It will hugely benefit all community members ability to know what is when, and it will open a invaluable window into our community life for outsiders interested in what the CDS community is all about.
