Good points, all. I suggest we add this matter to the agenda for our next meeting.

Was a date decided for that next meeting?

With the Paul Graham's request; The chair forwarded his email to me asking what I thought of the idea as I was already looking into recording some of the conference.

We can decide on that collectively. Also as a mater of course we should get consent from any one we are recording.

And we should also talk to Jane recording her presentation even if it is public.

Hi Scott:

It’s probably a good idea for someone to record McAlevey’s presentation, but do we, the committee, want to use that ourselves or at least determine how it’s used?  This might be something for us to decide collectively.

Hi,

 

I will have to send my regrets for the meeting today. I have sent Kent Davies at the OHC an email about recording the roundtable discussions but just waiting to hear back.

 

Also Paul Graham has asked if he could video record Jane McAlvery’s keynote address. Which I see no problem with.

These are late, but, nothing terribly critical (task-wise) was assigned -- other than to me. ;)

 

I may have missed some bits (I usually record the meeting on my iPhone and then refer to what I've typed, but for some reason said recording isn't there)!

 

Will see you all in a few hours!

MINUTES: SATURDAY, JANUARY 12, 2019 | 1:30PM | UNIVERSITY OF WINNIPEG

1. COMMUNICATIONS

Krishna Lalbiharie gave an overview of the new website overhaul (1919-2019.com). Krishna will add updates to the conference schedule and will provide a PDF version for download. Information that is absent at the time of the meeting will be provided between now-and-the-next convening of the WGSCC committee.

Krishna Lalbiharie will also attend to producing adverts in publications, including the MFL’s newsletter.

Krishna will also provide info. to the Mayworks Committee re: calendar advertising.

Paul Jenkins will see about booking tables amongst book sellers/publishers.

2. PROGRAMMING
 
(A) BILLY BRAGG: We are still unsure about the state of booking Bragg. The committee has promised monies totalling $23K (this includes MLF monies), but the U of M Faculty of Arts Deanery also promises to offer monies beyond that — even reaching as high as $25K in total. Rhonda Hinther (and others) will connect with Jason Hooper for a fuller update and will report back to the committee.

(B) BOOTS RILEY: Krishna Lalbiharie reports that CCPA-MB is bringing in Boots Riley on the evening of Saturday, May 11, 2019 in connection with 1919 activities. CCPA-MB has asked if the 1919 WGSCC Committee would be interested in partnering in said event with a financial contribution of $9K (US). Following a discussion amongst members, it was decided that, because Riley’s speaking date arrives at the very end of our conference – alongside the extra expense this could potentially incur (together with Bragg) — we should decline CCPA-MB’s offer.

(C) CONFERENCE SCHEDULE: Julie Guard presented a near-final schedule notwithstanding a few additions and time re-workings, which she will attend return to the committee ASAP. 

(D) WEDNESDAY EVENING OPENING/RECEPTION (UNIVERSITY OF WINNIPEG): The following general schedule was proposed, with times (for each sec.) to be fixed:
