I’m more supportive of two meetings a year, as it will help us get more done. 
Heck, we could even hold our meetups on weekends like D.C. does, as it would 
allow for us to get more done, and get more involvement from those of us who 
have class or work on Mondays. In terms of social media, we have had a Facebook 
page that has been semi-active for over a year 
(https://www.facebook.com/WikimediaNewEngland), and it has helped to make our 
chapter more known. I have also drafted up (or copied and modified) documents 
on our page (https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_New_England) that have 
the ability to provide a basic framework on how to run our organization. 
Overall, we do have a basic structural framework, and I have been told that we 
need to start thinking about submitting a formal application to the chapters 
committee once we decide we want to officially incorporate.

The general meeting is, from my understanding, scheduled like that so that we 
get it in right before we lose all the college students that leave for the 
summer. That makes sense to me, so I'd rather not change it.

  I don't see any reason why a general meeting can't happen sooner or later.

  If the document is ready and has enough support in 2 or 3 months from
  now we could meet then.

  Anyway, yes it's good to bring this up again and get some balls rolling.
