We have held Round Table (Mission 
								leadership) meetings for a few years now.  
								Recently we opened these meetings to new people 
								we wanted to speak with.  We then later 
								decided to open the meetings to any 
								Mission member who would like to join 
								us as a non-participatory observer.  This 
								decision was added to a
								
								related July 2013 announcement, and as a 
								reminder, the relevant part is again copied 
								here:
								All Round Table meetings are also 
									open for non-participatory observation by 
									any tithe-paying Mission 
									member (to promote transparency of 
									Mission leadership).  To do so,
									send the 
									Round Table an email requesting to 
									observe the next meeting:
									
									RT@maitreya.org.  You will be sent 
									information on how to join the meeting room, 
									and placed in listen-only mode during the 
									meeting.  Note that although every meeting 
									is open for observation, it is necessary to 
									send such a request for each meeting you 
									would like to observe, so the Round Table 
									can give any updated information to join and 
									keep track of who will be attending.
								Therefore, if you want to know how the members of the 
								Round Table 
								come together and make decisions for the Mission, 
								this is your chance!
