Chair closes the Committee Meeting <> == Minutes == === 1 Preliminaries === Present: Alexander, Dirk, Lambert, Mario, Piers. ==== 1.1 Open ==== Meeting chaired by Lambert ==== 1.2 Last Meeting Minutes ==== Motion to accept the minutes from the last meeting [[https://community.cacert.org/board/motions.php?motion=m20111113.6|carried]]. ==== 1.3 Minutes taker ==== Piers to take minutes. ==== 1.4 Board Private issues ==== Two items discussed: * Oophaga invoice (just what bank account to be used) * Key Persons list (should Public Relations Officer be on the list) ==== 1.5 Action Items ==== "Key Persons List" should be out this coming week. It will be mailed to people on the list, rather than kept anywhere on CAcert servers, which follows advice on [[https://wiki.cacert.org/SystemAdministration/Procedures/KeyPeopleContacts|KeyPeopleContacts]] === 2 Business === ==== 2.1 Software Freedom Law Center ==== This is in response to mail from Bruce to the committee offering to make contact with a Software Freedom Law Center lawyer to talk to Red-Hat lawyers about adding our root-certificate in their distro. Redhat lawyers state that our license is not free and they refuse to talk to a non-lawyer. The Software Freedom Law Center (SFLC) appear to offer "free" lawyers for open source products. Motion to contact SFLC to help the discussions with the Redhat lawyers about the inclusion of our root certificate in their distribution [[https://community.cacert.org/board/motions.php?motion=m20111113.1|passed]]. ==== 2.2 Nominate Marc-Oliver Hofmann as Organisation Assurer ==== Motion that we accept Marc Oliver as Organisationa Assurer [[https://community.cacert.org/board/motions.php?motion=m20111113.2|passed]]. ==== AGM ==== Checklist: * Invites have been sent. * Is votebot ready? * Need more candidates for the Board. * Need to finish the Board report. * Need to finish the AGM minutes. * Need to finish the SGM minutes. * Board should provide advice on rule changes. === 3 Questions === ==== 3.1 Google Pages ==== Idea is for CAcert to have an official presence on Google Pages, perhaps by copying content from the blog into a Page. Idea is not for link from CAcert to Pages, but for link from Pages to CAcert. Dirk and Mario to come up with a proposal. ==== 3.2 Twitter ==== Some discussion about CAcert twitter presence - who "owns" '''@cacert'''. ==== 3.3 More AGM queries ==== Board / AGM / SGM reports pending. AU members needed for committee. (But if not enough, then can invoke "sub-committee" manoeuvre - which involves appointing sufficient ''silent'' AU members to the Board to total three, and moving requisite number of active non-AU members onto a sub-committee.) === 4 Closing === ==== 4.1 Next meeting ==== [[Brain/CAcertInc/Committee/MeetingAgendasAndMinutes/20111030|Next meeting]]: Sunday, November 20th 2011, 21:00 [[http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?day=20&month=11&year=2011&hour=21&min=00&sec=00|UTC]] === Motions === * [[https://community.cacert.org/board/motions.php?motion=m20111113.6|m20111113.6]]: ''Accept minutes of meeting 2011-11-06'' * [[https://community.cacert.org/board/motions.php?motion=m20111113.1|m20111113.1]]: ''Contact SFLC re Red-Hat'' * [[https://community.cacert.org/board/motions.php?motion=m20111113.2|m20111113.2]]: ''Accept Marc-Oliver Hofmann as Organisation Assurer'' ---- .
