The constitution says we must elect a new Exec at the AGM:

   3.a.  Elections for all executive positions will take place at the
   Annual General Meeting.

   3.b.  Current executive positions shall fall vacant at the end of
   the Annual General Meeting. The new executive will immediately take
   power.

The constitution says we must have an AGM in September:

   5.f. The Annual General Meeting shall be held in the month of
   September. 

So there is no wriggle room there.  But the constitution is completely
silent on what format the AGM must have or what we must do apart from
the election and presentation of financial results.  The only other
thing I see as required is a report on membership numbers.  We could
use LA's Zoom URL.  I guess it could be a good trail run for LA itself.

So yeah, yr right, there is no reason not to just do it, other than the
usual PITA of drumming up the 9 quorum.

We are as always required to give give 2 weeks notice.  The 19th of
September works for me (but I will be on enforced bed rest).
