Speaking just for myself, the “cannot miss 3 meetings in a row” rule,
along with Daphne's statement that it would be interpreted liberally,
seems to be eminently fair, especially if we always get 2 weeks advance
notice (as we did this time). I verified that it doesn't conflict with
anything, and put the meeting into my calendar when I saw the message,
along with a requirement for copious reminders as the date approaches.
And I checked out the agenda, which looks fine for an inaugural meeting.
I personally prefer text to voice for something like this, because the
transcript can then be saved and archived (I hope on Codeberg) for
future reference.
(As a side note for those who have not yet retired, some claim “when
you're retired, your time is your own”. Don't believe it for a minute.
