Nice job Roy, well done. 18:41 <@robbat2|na> Seconded 18:41 <@NeddySeagoon> thanks quantumsummers 18:41 <@NeddySeagoon> vote 18:41 <@NeddySeagoon> Aye 18:41 <@robbat2|na> Aye 18:41 <@dabbott> Yes 18:42 <@NeddySeagoon> quantumsummers, ? 18:42 <@quantumsummers> aye 18:42 <@NeddySeagoon> Motion carried. 18:42 <@NeddySeagoon> quantumsummers, Are you ready with the Secretaries report ? 18:42 <@quantumsummers> I have emailed my Secretary's report. Have not had a chance to xml it yet. 18:43 * NeddySeagoon checks mail 18:43 <@quantumsummers> further, I am on a machine where I have no keys. So, if someone wants to place it in your webspace, it would be appreciated 18:43 <@quantumsummers> I think it may need to be text-wrapped 18:44 <@NeddySeagoon> quantumsummers, can you pastebin it please for the wider readership 18:44 <@quantumsummers> sure 18:45 <@quantumsummers> http://dpaste.com/532989/ 18:46 <@quantumsummers> format is not too nice 18:46 <@quantumsummers> let me see if I can clean it up a bit 18:46 <@robbat2|na> s/None with NW/None with NM/ 18:46 <@quantumsummers> yes, thanks robbat2|na 18:47 <@dabbott> http://paste.pocoo.org/show/373453/ 18:47 <@quantumsummers> thanks dabbott that is much better 18:48 <@NeddySeagoon> quantumsummers, It looks pretty comprehensive. I move to adopt the content of the Secretaries report 18:48 <@robbat2|na> "Consider filing for operations in the state of Missouri." I have a question 18:48 <@robbat2|na> what happens to any mail that would presently go to our address of record? 18:49 <@NeddySeagoon> it will be forwarded - probably to Josh whichis something we need to fix 18:49 <@robbat2|na> ok 18:49 <@quantumsummers> the goal is to get the mail, period. So, we will need to adjust the NM address. 18:49 <@robbat2|na> yes 18:49 <@robbat2|na> along with filing the update paperwork for NM 18:50 <@quantumsummers> exactly 18:50 <@NeddySeagoon> yes - we can do that now the election is over 18:50 <@robbat2|na> no other questions. i second to adopt the content. 18:50 <@quantumsummers> the MO registration is for convenience, and does not effect our NM sitation 18:51 <@NeddySeagoon> Apparenty, NM wanted routine filings first and updates separately later 18:51 <@quantumsummers> further, I volunteer my POBox for gentoo usage 18:51 <@quantumsummers> NeddySeagoon: that is correct, Josh and I talked about it (and since each one is $10 we thought we should wait until things settled) 18:51 <@NeddySeagoon> Vote to accept the content of the Secretaries report please 18:52 <@dabbott> yes 18:52 <@NeddySeagoon> yes 18:52 <@robbat2|na> aye 18:52 <@quantumsummers> yes 18:52 <@quantumsummers> one note 18:52 <@NeddySeagoon> Motion Carried. It needs to be XMLified for the commit 18:53 <@NeddySeagoon> quantumsummers, swap hats ... The treasuers report please 18:53 <@quantumsummers> I have another meeting on the 18th with my CPA who has talked informally with the IRS regarding the situation (annonymously) 18:53 <@dabbott> I can do that and sent it to quantumsummers 18:53 <@quantumsummers> thank you dabbott, if you don't mind I appreciate it 18:54 <@NeddySeagoon> quantumsummers, you want to hold it over to the next meeting ? 18:54 <@quantumsummers> I note in the Sec report that the Treasurers report is pending 18:54 <@NeddySeagoon> ok 18:54 <@NeddySeagoon> Next meeting then 18:54 <@quantumsummers> I can work on it next week, I need the latest statement 18:54 <@quantumsummers> from cap1, that is 18:54 <@quantumsummers> final note from me: 18:55 <@quantumsummers> in conversations, the CPAs that I have spoken with are fully confident that we will have no real issue obtaining proper status, and they estimate 8 months from filing date for finalization 18:56 <@NeddySeagoon> Thanks. We just have to find the IRS fees and CPA fees then :) 18:56 <@quantumsummers> Once I have the meeting on the 18th, I will prepare the submission to the board. Should take a week. 18:56 <@quantumsummers> I have bids from 2 firms, still waiting on 2 more 18:56 <@NeddySeagoon> quantumsummers, sounds like things are moving at last ... well done 18:57 <@dabbott> thanks quantumsummers :) 18:57 <@quantumsummers> nice thing, once we get settled, it will take <30 days to get the app submitted 18:57 <@NeddySeagoon> Agenda Item 3 Trustee Election Results 18:57 <@quantumsummers> further, that will be easy to parallelize with the 990s 18:57 <@quantumsummers> please continue 18:58 <@NeddySeagoon> robbat2 and quantumsummers were reelected for a further 2 year term 18:58 * quantumsummers thanks the electorate. 18:58 <@NeddySeagoon> rich0 filled the seat vacated by tsunam 18:59 <@NeddySeagoon> I would like to propose a vote of thanks to tsunam for the work he put in over the last 3 years 18:59 <@quantumsummers> seconded 18:59 <@NeddySeagoon> Vote 18:59 <@robbat2|na> aye 18:59 <@NeddySeagoon> Aye 18:59 <@quantumsummers> aye 18:59 <@dabbott> yes yes 18:59 <@NeddySeagoon> Carried 19:00 <@NeddySeagoon> And welcome rich0 to te team 19:00 <@NeddySeagoon> That covers item 4 too 19:00 <@quantumsummers> Welcome Mr. Freeman, glad to have you. 19:01 <@NeddySeagoon> Agenda Item 5 Trustee Meeting Calendar 19:02 <@NeddySeagoon> The proposal is to carry on with the routine we have settled into. I may have an issue with June 17 as my wife wants us to be away around then 19:02 <@NeddySeagoon> June 19* 19:03 <@NeddySeagoon> Do we need to make any changes right now ? 19:03 <@robbat2|na> my calender for the rest of 2011 fits with the proposed dates 19:03 <@NeddySeagoon> robbat2|na, thats as good as it gets 19:03 <@dabbott> dates are fine by me 19:03 <@NeddySeagoon> quantumsummers, ? 19:04 <@quantumsummers> looking 19:05 <@quantumsummers> those dates look fine 19:05 <@NeddySeagoon> I propose we adopt the meetings calander then 19:05 <@dabbott> seconded 19:06 <@NeddySeagoon> Independence Day and Thanksgiving are avoided 19:06 <@NeddySeagoon> Vote please 19:06 <@robbat2|na> aye 19:06 <@NeddySeagoon> Aye 19:06 <@dabbott> yes 19:06 <@quantumsummers> aye 19:06 <@NeddySeagoon> Motion Carried 19:06 <@quantumsummers> One thing: 19:07 <@quantumsummers> I do think we should move the AGM to follow the end of our fiscal year next year 19:07 <@quantumsummers> I think it would simplify certain reporting requirements 19:07 <@quantumsummers> i.e. the treasurers report would be the annual tax statements + other related info 19:08 <@quantumsummers> we can discuss this at another time, its not a big deal. 19:08 <@NeddySeagoon> quantumsummers, I was wondering about that. The April date comes from holding the meeting in 2008 as soon as the elections were in, as several years had been missed 19:08 <@NeddySeagoon> Its been annual ever since 19:08 <@quantumsummers> it would be nice to simplify reporting to include the mandated annual reports and publish those in the AGM 19:09 <@quantumsummers> I see. Just a suggestion. :) 19:09 <@NeddySeagoon> Agreed. That would make either July or Aug the AGM then ? 19:09 <@dabbott> What month May ? 19:09 <@quantumsummers> Fiscal year end is June 19:09 <@dabbott> ok so July 19:09 <@quantumsummers> Our filing deadline is Nov 15th 19:10 <@quantumsummers> anytime in there should be fine 19:10 <@quantumsummers> Might be easier on the future Treasurer to do Aug. 19:10 <@NeddySeagoon> We are allowed 13 months between AGMs by law, so we can slip it a month per year 19:11 <@robbat2|na> but nothing says you can't have more than one in a calendar year 19:11 <@NeddySeagoon> robbat2|na, true 19:11 <@quantumsummers> that can easily account for time required to summarize the financials if we choose the Aug date. 19:11 <@dabbott> :) 19:11 <@NeddySeagoon> quantumsummers, We will need an interim meeting then. 19:12 <@robbat2|na> August is a little busy for me w/ 3 conferences (that don't conflict with the proposed meeting date), but no other objections 19:12 <@quantumsummers> hmm, well Sept, Oct or Nov work too 19:12 <@robbat2|na> keep it proposed as August 19:12 <@dabbott> Motion: Add second AGM Sept 18 19:12 <@NeddySeagoon> Agenda Item 6 AoB 19:12 <@NeddySeagoon> I have an iyem ot two 19:12 <@NeddySeagoon> item* 19:13 <@quantumsummers> ok. i second dabbott's motion 19:13 <@quantumsummers> to add the interim AGM in Sept 19:13 <@quantumsummers> err, AUG 19:13 <@NeddySeagoon> This year only - yes ? 19:13 <@quantumsummers> yes. 19:13 <@NeddySeagoon> Vote 19:13 <@NeddySeagoon> Aye 19:13 <@robbat2|na> aye 19:13 <@dabbott> yes 19:14 <@quantumsummers> aye for August 19:14 <@NeddySeagoon> Motion Carried 19:14 <@NeddySeagoon> Agenda Item 6 AoB 19:14 <@quantumsummers> then 2012 meeting will be in Aug. 19:14 <@quantumsummers> sorry :D 19:14 <@quantumsummers> NeddySeagoon: sir, please continue 19:14 <@NeddySeagoon> DVDs for Linux-Tag Can we vote on this please as time is short 19:15 <@NeddySeagoon> Proposal to suppoy 100 DVDs 19:15 <@quantumsummers> Motion: fund ^ 19:15 <@dabbott> Motion: Fund DVDs for Linux-Tag 19:15 <@robbat2|na> is 100 going to be enough? 19:15 <@NeddySeagoon> robbat2|na, The estimate was 50-100 19:16 <@dabbott> a3li: ^ 19:16 <@quantumsummers> if we went with usb drives we could purchase a larger number of them ... though they are several orders of magnitude more money 19:16 <@NeddySeagoon> We need to do the experiment to see what the waste (if any) is like 19:16 <@robbat2|na> We did 50 at SCALE, and LinuxTag is larger than SCALE 19:16 <@robbat2|na> by a lot 19:16 <@quantumsummers> I would be happy with 200 19:16 <@dabbott> yes 200 is fine 19:16 <+a3li> if you are willing to provide 200, I'm of course happy about that 19:17 <@quantumsummers> or more really, but likely not more than 500 19:17 <@robbat2|na> what other events do we have this year for potential wastage to get used up? 19:17 <+a3li> 100 is what we handed out at least last year 19:17 <@quantumsummers> linuxcon is this year. 19:17 <+a3li> froscon, CCC camp, 28c3 19:17 <@robbat2|na> (in EU, to avoid shipping) 19:17 <@NeddySeagoon> OK - quantity 200 19:17 <@quantumsummers> in Vancouver :) 19:17 <@quantumsummers> ok... 200 second that motion 19:17 <+a3li> we can arrange for storage with the other EU promo material 19:18 <@NeddySeagoon> If the Foundation going to place the order or refund a3li ? 19:18 <@quantumsummers> a3li: you are happy with 200? I know a few devs that could take some to local events in EU 19:18 <+a3li> quantumsummers: I am 19:18 <+a3li> NeddySeagoon: I do not have that kind of petty cash 19:18 <@quantumsummers> good question. It should be easy enough for me to pay 19:19 <@quantumsummers> we need a stinkin card' 19:19 <@NeddySeagoon> Motion to purchase 200 DVDs for use in europe 19:19 <@quantumsummers> seconded 19:19 <@NeddySeagoon> Vote please 19:19 <@dabbott> quantumsummers: http://www.linuxpusher.com/distribution/100xgentoo-linuxtag-2011-dvd 19:19 <@quantumsummers> aye 19:19 <@robbat2|na> aye 19:19 <@NeddySeagoon> Aye 19:19 <@dabbott> yes 19:19 <@NeddySeagoon> Motion Carried 19:20 <@quantumsummers> dabbott which arch should I choose, 100 of each? 19:20 <@NeddySeagoon> quantumsummers, can you place the order soonest please 19:20 <@quantumsummers> the 32bit is the hybrid right? 19:20 <@quantumsummers> NeddySeagoon: I can do it on Monday, no problem 19:20 <+a3li> dabbott: 10.2 doesn't sound right 19:20 <@NeddySeagoon> Its 11.1 19:20 <@robbat2|na> confirm w/ linuxpusher to be sure, but I think it's the hybrid 19:20 <@quantumsummers> a3li: where do I ship them?
