[committee] Meeting notifications

[Oscar Hermoso]

This whole drama is ridiculous.

[TPG], you should have known that the meeting is in the CCZ, meetings have
been held there for months. It even says so on Cerberus, at the entrance to
the clubroom. Also, [DJF], our treasurer, was in the clubroom and at 4PM he
mentioned he was going to be late to the committee meeting, obviously
implying that the meeting wouldn't be held in the clubroom.

[BLZ], that's a horrible reply - and you know it. Notice of meetings is
absolutely useless without a location, that's common sense. Whether the
constitution says it or not, the correct location should absolutely be
contained within the meeting notices.

I've gone and updated the meeting scipts to contain the correct location.
Apologies that it wasn't done earlier.

UCC already has enough drama as it is, please don't add to it
unnecessarily. This situation doesn't need to be brought up at the next
committee meeting. Nothing will come of it, it will simply extend the
meeting and in get in the way of productive conversation.

Regards,
[CHS]
