travel if required.

STATUS: Pending

ITEM: Google Summer of Code mentor organization application filed
Now waiting for ACK/NAK from google.
ACTION: Waiting
STATUS: Complete

ITEM: Move to SPI 
To move to SPI, we need to identify our current assets (IP and
physical). A precise writeup of the process is pending from SFLC.
The deadline to finish this is three years after starting the dissolution
process, so it's not the most pressing manner.
This also requires to chase up IP transfers from The Open Group to X.Org, a
rather long-standing todo item.
ACTION: Waiting for SFLC writeup
STATUS: Pending

ITEM: BoD election
Four candidates for four spots, so the result - if we meet the quorum -
won't be overly suprising. In the Q&A period right now.
ACTION: Alan C to set up ballot to run next week
STATUS: Pending
