Notes on the new process?
David, I agree with the idea that the new member should bring a video, expect him to comply with the agenda and since we need more members, if they comply with the other requests (video, numbers) it would seem we would not be "blackballing them". If an old member has a real problem with one of the guests we could ask them both to leave the room, we can let them know if they have been accepted or rejected via e-mail the next day or so. I recommend we invite both guests to take part... John Davenport

I agree that the candidates should be expected to participate as fully as possible in the meeting activities. With regard to candidate evaluation, I offer the following: I suggest that they be told that their participation in the meeting end after lunch on the second day. After the candidate's departure we can discuss their fit within the group. They would then be contacted by the inviting member in the next few days in order to invite them to become a member or to let them know that it doesn't look like a good fit.
