        Director. He is Nashua regional lead.

21:13  * Joe goes to 1 knee
21:14 < srevilak> jokeefe: thanks for the clarification.  (I was just
        curious)
21:14 <~jokeefe> It is an important question
21:15 < srevilak> I've never interacted with Elijah, and will abstain
        from the vote
21:15 <~jokeefe> Should I setup an interview?
21:16 <~jokeefe> I suggested he join the activists list and introduce
        himself.
21:16 < Joe> Aye
21:16 < srevilak> Sounds reasonable
21:16 < srevilak> Once I've interacted, I will no longer abstain
21:16 <~jokeefe> should I setup a video chat?
21:17 < Malt> i could attend an interview
21:18 <~jokeefe> ok, I will talk with him about setting up an interview
        or at least having him introduce himself.
21:19 < Joe> See if wecan do it for the next video recording
21:19 < Joe> On Sunday
21:19 < Malt> yeah bring him on, let's run him through the gauntlet
21:20 < Joe> Nothing more open than that!

21:25 < Joe> Sounds good. Though I don't think I can add much at this
        point.
21:31 <~jokeefe> Does the 19th sound like a good date to have people
        suggest discussion topics for the Moot on the 26th?
