Items discussed
ITEM: server migration Still nothing happened. ACTIONS: Rob to get going STATUS: Pending ITEM: x.org domain ownership struggles x.org expires on the 19th Jan. The board tried to handle this since over half a year (in private, for a few reasons). Lots of phonecalls but no real progress. We need a legal trail from the LLC to the current org. Keith contacted SLFC for that. ACTIONS: Keith to attempt a Hail Mary ACTIONS: Peter to update board on plan B to board@ STATUS: Pending ITEM: evoc payement Still impossible to send money to Julia. Could try to send the money in splits of 500$, confirming each time around. Horrendous fees would result. ACTIONS: Stuart to transfer in splits if Julia is ok with taking the fees. STATUS: Pending ITEM: spi/voting Membership renewal seems to progress well, 51 renewed thus far. Somewhat unclear whether to proceed with voting first or ask for an official invite first. Next steps after 25th (end of renewal phase). ACTIONS: Martin to send an informal inquiry to SPI. STATUS: Pending
