Happy New Year from the Website Committee!
We had a great Web Committee meeting today. There were 6 in attendance. We discussed the motions that were tabled from last assembly and had some discussion about whether online meetings that are part of an existing registered group in Area 37, should or should not be listed on the website. It was unanimously agreed that they should be listed if they are part of an existing Area 37 group.
The committee is making a motion to take from the table, the follwoing motions by the committee that were tabled from the last assembly.
| Website calendar of events | |
| Original | Updated |
| Area 37 groups and districts may post flyers and announcements about A.A. related events in their community to the public Calendar of Events of the website provided that the webmaster, or a member of the Website committee, proofs the flyer for its authenticity before posting and that there is a disclaimer at the top of the page stating that Area 37 may not be responsible for the content or events. | Area 37 groups, districts, and other official entities within the AA service structure, including but not limited to regional assemblies, GSO, and the General Service Conference, may post flyers and announcements about A.A. related events in their community to the public Calendar of Events of the website, provided that the webmaster, or a member of the Website committee, proofs the flyer for its authenticity before posting and that there is a disclaimer at the top of the page stating that Area 37 may not be responsible for the content or events. |
| Intent: To include “down the triangle” events, while upholding the policy that limits listings to events within or directly connected to Area 37. |

From our discussion about online meeting listings, we are submitting the following motion out of committee to make a change to the structure manual.
