Preliminaries
The secretary is making minutes. The minutes from April, 5th are accepted.
At 20:07 UTC Brian took chair and opened the meeting.
Business The answer of the Public Officer is still missing. The secretary is in charge to get it. The membership application from Frédéric G. has been accepted. The committee takes note from the latest resumee about the GDPR, sent by Lambert as member of the GDPR working group.
Concerning the Bug 1260 (Make the source compatible with recent PHP versions), Brian and Peter M. had a look to the code. Now, they have to get in touch with Egal to proceed. No news for bugs 1417 (unable to create certificate) and 1432 (NDS CAA). Alternative ways to create certificates should be published on the wiki. As the wiki has his own structure that is maybe not all the times very transparent for newcomers, it is proposed to create a one-stop-page that tells in easy, non-technical words step by step, what an normal user has to do from creating his account / find an assurer / getting assured / installing root / etc. Brian will propose this at the Paris group, translations into German, English, Czech and other languages follows. Publication as PDF, epub, etc. are also possible. [Working titles: "How to use CAcert" "CAcert for dummies" "Cacert the easy way"]
Finances: As the treasurer allready left the meeting, the secretary reports: There were some donations and subscripions for the yearly-50$, but he has not access to the key numbers. It seems, that there is not enough time for the EU grant. Furthermore, from our reading of the requirements, we may not be able to apply on our own, but would need a suitable partner within the EU. So the sub committee should concentrate on the Linux Australia Grant. On IRC was a comment about giving money and a helping hand, but not before the MD5 is replaced, as is pending for two or three years now. The secretary tries to get in contact with the person in charge - if there is no anwer by e-mail, by snail mail.
Question Time There were no questions, neither from the flor, neither from the committee (apart from off topic questions about trains in Canada and Australia).
Closing
We aggreed on 2018-05-17-TF:00 UTC for the next meeting.
Chair closed the meeting at XXXXX UTC
