I want to ask whether we're waiting for full attendance before convening, ex: 'waiting [to hold the meeting] until we're quorate', but 'quorate' (as I understand it) only implies 'enough people to hold the meeting' whereas I want to communicate 'everyone who is eligible to attend is present'.
ex:
'... waiting [to hold the meeting] until we're _______ [quorate?]'

Not an adjective, so not an answer.. but a 'full complement' would refer to everyone eligible, in this context. For example: 'Are we waiting for the full complement before holding the meeting?'

Why be fancy? Why not just say "... until we're all here" or "... everybody's here"?

I would suggest 'until we are complete'.
Having all its parts or members; comprising the full number or amount; embracing all the requisite items, details, topics, etc.; entire, full.

I think the word full as in 'the room is full', which implies everyone is here, would fit this context.

Hi Jenny, welcome to EL&U. I'm not sure "full" is the right word: the room being full doesn't mean everyone is there. What if it's a tiny room and membership is 200?

In any case, the system has flagged your answer for deletion as "low-quality because of its length and content." An answer on this site is expected to be authoritative, detailed, and explain why it is correct. You can edit your answer to avoid deletion - for example, adding a published definition that supports your interpretation. For further guidance, see How to Answer :-)
