[DAII]

Updates here for today and tomorrow's business meeting, visit here:

There seems to be little controversy this year about any of the resolutions.
It would be great if someone could post them

The org site says:

We will expedite the Ministers Business Sessions on Thursday and Friday mornings by electronic voting and other means, so please be on time. We will also have a special Closed Ministers Session.

Special closes meeting? Some are thinking it will be about holiness and emergents and maybe even the 'internet and TV'.

Thankfully, electronic voting is here ... this pic posted by a minister on FB thanking the Bishop for bringing it about.



Should lead to more accurate and quicker counts ... 'bout time. Head counts or standing can be chaotic ... there has been chaos on the floor during these votes in the past.

Had they had electronic voting last year ... ironically ... Bernard may have not been GS today ... Mooney would've had less time to mull it over ... and opt out.

Cool! Pretty good chance the number of votes cast will not exceed the number of people in the room, too!

How much did this system cost, I wonder?

Maybe it's like Monkey Survey and it's free.

Hmmm ... two links on their page for the meeting ... also it seems they will not be posting real-time but after the meeting ...

If so, this is a change from past years where it was updated while in session.

Now we'll have to make some calls.
