Re: [chairs] Sane attendance recording in Kavi

[Kelvin Lawrence <klawrenc@us.ibm.com>]

Having read Steve's mail about recording
attendance I just went to Kavi and took a closer look at what he described
and he is absolutely right. kavi allows us to sort nicely the main rosetr
but in the Track Attendance screen there is no way to filter out the non
members and easily track attendance. This again gets back to the basic
problem that subscribing to an e-mail list does not constitute membership
in a TC - for Kavi to be an effective tracking tool this needs to get fixed.
I strongly ensorse Steve's issue here and would assert that this falls
into the must be fixed category.

Subject	[chairs] Sane attendance recording in Kavi

So I'm looking at the Kavi pages for recording attendance,
and all TC list participants (which is what I presume Kavi has used for
the basis of TC rosters) are lumped together.  There is no means of
sorting the list, nor is there any designation as to voting member / prospective
member / observer.  

How we typically handle roll is to call through the list of voting members,
then allow prospective members and observers to identify themselves as
present.  Having to call through Kavi's entire list is completely
unfeasible.  And having everyone try to randomly identify themselves
is equally unfeasible.

So what is needed, to avoid having to maintain a spreadsheet like I do
now, and copy those records into Kavi offline, is the following (within
the attendance screens):
*                
separation of voting members from prospective members from observers
*                
sorting of each of the above groups independently, based on affiliation
and last name

Can this be done?
