Okay. That sounds good. I'm cool provided we know who has submitted
their reports and who hasn't and what those reports are.

I can see that the meeting page will become just to big. I think having
separate minute pages linked from the meeting page would keep the
meeting page from becoming to large. I can see the value through of
having a separate Exec meeting area that can be accessed from the main
page just like the membership page, about etc.

This has been my main gripe. I don't care for pretty pages. All I want to 
know is what is planned to happen, what happened and what needs to happen.
