ALU Goals, Strategies and Tactics

MISSION STATEMENT
  The Association of Lisp Users wants to strengthen the Lisp community
  by
  - providing high-quality information about Lisp;
  - hosting regularly scheduled International Lisp Conferences (ILC);
  - providing administrative support for Lisp-related groups and
    projects.

the ALU, Carl Shapiro moved to strike the first bullet, "providing
high-quality information about Lisp;" from the Mission Statement of
the ALU.  Duane Rettig seconded the motion.  The motion passed with

site accordingly.  President van Waning admonished the board to remain
focused on maintaining the membership, to keep the ALU afloat.
