I don't think each member has a right to notification in a reasonable
timeframe (that would be an excessive burden to give the committee).

The idea being if you inform the majority of your membership, the rest
of them should know about it. And it's not like the announcement goes
away (the archives are there). If someone were very worried that an AGM
had been announced, they should look at the archives for the period
they didn't receive mail.
