As every year, I will be looking at updating the GB Guidelines for the coming year.
The current Guidelines are here, if for some obscure and irrelevant reason you have not yet memorized them .
If you have any thoughts or suggestions about the Guidelines, or GBs in general, please address them in this thread (or by PM if you would prefer) by November 30th -- that will allow me to put out a final draft for any follow-on comments.
As a side note, I'm thinking about revamping the calendar, keeping the graphic chart, but getting away from the month-by-month list under it - perhaps just a sequential list of GB's broken by Completed, Current, and Pending - we get a number that cross over month boundaries (see also remarks in the Guidelines).
I will spend December getting the 2015 GB's into the Past GB Index.

Satisfied with the way things are and most satisfied with your handling of things John.

Re: Request for feedback on GB Guidelines, etc
I think that last year's review pretty well cracked it...can't think of any ways of doing GB better now...
Please critique my posts honestly i.e. say what you think so I can learn and improve...

For one reason or another I haven't participated in a Group Build for about 18 months or so but that doesn't mean to say that I don't find them to be worthwhile, in fact long may they continue. Keep up the good work John as you are doing just fine IMHO.

No issues whatsoever with the way the GBs work. As others have said John, you're doing a great job.

I must say that I do like the month by month synopsis under the calendar chart.
