Title: New Group Members for AS and AS2
Post by: The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers on September 15, 2006, 11:35:33 AM

Apparently, there was some confusion.

Robert was told there were too many people.

Group volumes have changed, and I personally think that 5 submitting members works.

My only demand is that you *must* be able to commit to showing up regularly. If you do not, you are taking up space for someone who can contribute. You also *must* show up for other people. These rules are non-negotiable.

Thus, I think we can open up the slots. However, I need input from other members of each group before accepting new members is final.

I *do* think, however, that a group should be able to privately meet and decide *if* they will accept a new member, which they can reject on any basis, and need not explain themselves (we are ineffible).

Thanks, SE. We definitely needed that clarification. It's important that all members of a group work together well to make the writing groups work.

This thread as SE told you.  There are two, just say what days you're available for and what you write and they'll do the rest.

Be patient with us, Ruby, while we figure out where you would fit in. We've had to re-organize things lately, so we're a little scattered. We haven't forgotten you.

We'll disgust... er... discuss amongst ourselves and try to work you both in.
