I have the following users who have expressed interest in participating in the panel:

KMOD
Behind the Aegis

Renew Deal

If anyone on this list can not or does not want to participate please let me know and I can take you off the list. At this point we have 9 people and I think that is sufficient for a panel to discuss the issues. If you still wish to express support for the group let us know and we will add your name. All the names will be forwarded to Skinner when we propose the group to show that we have enough members interested. It would be nice to have at least 20-25 names.

Some of the things we need to get done (in no particular order):

Develop a mission statement
Take a look at the UN Charter (which can be found here)
Discuss human rights statutes
Decide what room rules we will use
Decide which areas will be out of bounds because they may overlap with that of another group
Appoint a host or hosts (even though I am starting this I'm bowing out for that job, sorry)

If there is anything we need to add to the list, please let me know. This will be an ongoing discussion until we can agree on the components needed and then send our proposal to Skinner for approval.

Thank you all for volunteering to help.
