| 14:58 | Caladon Rae (saeldurrae) | Tasha, that looks super comfy |
| 14:58 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | who is minding the store? |
| 14:58 | Phrynne | Sometimes the store minds itself |
| 14:58 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | I just don't have any formal chairs |
| 14:59 | Caladon Rae (saeldurrae) | ....does someone need to be down there? |
| 14:59 | Gronk Seriman | It's an hour for the new people to get through the Plaza un-bothered. |
| 14:59 | Phrynne | We can keep an eye on it with the MiniMap |
| 14:59 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | nope... a joke |
| 14:59 | Gronk Seriman smiles | |
| 15:00 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | and other toys from Word |
| 15:00 | Caladon Rae (saeldurrae) | Which reminds me. *presses a few buttons* |
| 15:00 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | oh yes |
| 15:02 | Gronk Seriman | It got quiet. Are we lagging? |
| 15:02 | Caladon Rae (saeldurrae) fires up her ground-scanning playlist. | |
| 15:03 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | hey Ingo |
| 15:03 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Was just pinging Andrea. She's on in Avi, but may be wandering on the other side. |
| 15:04 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Welcome to this week's Oxbridge Deans' Q&A |
| 15:05 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | This is an open meeting. All are welcome unless individual mis-behavior requires otherwise. Transcripts will be posted after the meeting. (Still haven't managed to get them done in advance.) |
| 15:05 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Phrynne, any thoughts or things to say? |
| 15:06 | Phrynne | I don't have any actual report; I've spent much of the week missing being here, since I had a nasty case of eyestrain. |
| 15:06 | Phrynne | But it's a little better, so I'm here now. I think I'll turn any Commons reporting over to Tasha. |
| 15:07 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Tasha, your turn. ;) |
| 15:07 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | Thank you Word and Phrynne, and because of the USA starting DST I can be here for Q&A at a reasonable UK time. |
| 15:07 | Caladon Rae (saeldurrae) | Yay for extra sunlight! |
| 15:07 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | As you know, we are always looking for talented people to become tutors |
| 15:07 | Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) | Just passed midnight in my timezone |
| 15:07 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | since Christmas we have had some wonderful people trying out as apprentice tutors |
| 15:08 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | I would like to announce that we are promoting two of them to tutor |

| 15:10 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | apart from that, we have had a lot of new people coming through |
| 15:10 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | I think more than usual |
| 15:11 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | and they are being greeted and helped |
| 15:11 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | that about wraps it up |
| 15:11 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Most good. A few that got introduced to elsewhere. |
| 15:11 | Caladon Rae (saeldurrae) | *snerks* |
| 15:11 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | yep |
| 15:11 | Phrynne | Some find their way home unexpectedly. :) |
| 15:12 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | and Cal found the correct tag |
| 15:12 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Reminds me Tasha, that you are due an upgrade to the "Here Remover". (if your remove someone's 'here' then they must be there.) |
| 15:12 | Caladon Rae (saeldurrae) | I kept blinking at it, thinking it was the nyquil messing with me |
| 15:13 | Tasha (natashafetishqueen) | nope, all real |
| 15:13 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Just the deans of Oxbridge messing with you. |
| 15:13 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Andrea? |
| 15:13 | Caladon Rae (saeldurrae) | That's a daily thing, Word. |
| 15:13 | Caladon Rae (saeldurrae) | :P |
| 15:14 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | I had thought today I would say that the Patron program was all caught up. but, My notes on the payments from most of last year has disappeared. I'll need to re build the file. |
| 15:15 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | Then a nap from after lunch grabbed me and I'm a bit late |
| 15:15 | Phrynne hands Andrea the anti-headache meds | |
| 15:15 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | can be done just will take time to redo. |
