New Business:
1. Fleet Report
The monthly report on the status of the fleet was made by Admiral Savot. It was noted that the USS Excalibur had peformed excellently, and that the performance of the USS El Salvador and USS Enzio was expected to improve given advantageous conditions on both ships. It was agreed a cumulative figure for posts in the entire fleet per month would be beneficial to evaluate fleet performance from month to month.
• No motion was necessary on this item.
2. Social Media Update
CSS resumed talk on social media, especially Star Trek Risa, from the tabled item last month. Fleet Admiral Torek indicated that the theme and logo of the Section 47 page at Star Trek Risa could benefit from an update, this was agreed upon. As the ownership of the current page is with Admiral Jackson Retired, it was agreed that a new Section 47 page would be created to incorporate the new look and allow for updates in the future, and that all CSS would connect to the new page.
• No motion was necessary on this item.
3. General Discussion
The rest of the meeting was to follow a roundtable format so that a broad range of issues may be discussed.
The first topic raised was the recent addition of new members and the relation this may or may not have to the new film Star Trek: Beyond. With the idea of trying to capture new popular enthusiasm in Star Trek in mind, a redesign of the message boards' banner and the overall message boards' theme was discussed. The Site Executive Officer offered to produce one or more examples of what could be done and this was agreed upon.
Clarification was asked on what the mission of Section 47 is within the Star Trek universe. It was noted that the mission statement, as it is currently, is not widely known by the membership. This could imply that the current mission is no longer relevant and therefore a new mission is needed. In either case, CSS members concurred that a new mission statement and purpose of Section 47 would serve to unite the fleet in common enterprise, give new drive to members and give Commanding Officers another option for new missions. An idea was outlined that would be developed further going forward.
• No motion was necessary on this item.
Adjournment
The meeting was adjourned by Section Admiral Gheskori at 20:43 GMT.
