 159 egal
 160 sorry ... was afk for some minutes ... 
 161 21:40:47
 162 last friday norbert and i visited BIT and got a knowledge-transfer from wytze ... 
 163 21:41:32
 164 mendel and mark overmeer (secure-u) were onsite for some time while norbert, wytze and i was there full time (around 6 hours) 
 165 21:42:34
 166 egal
 167 i got both password-lists from wytze and mendel (as norbert does not yet have an ABC) 
 168 21:43:21
 169 on the way back we talked about the hardware/... and i'll contact norbert over the weekend again ... 
 170 21:44:10
 171 → pnunn has joined 
 172 21:44:16
 173 egal
 174 currently i'm checking all needed access rights (before i revoke access rights for wytze, mendel etc.) 
 175 21:44:45
 176 pnunn
 177 Sorry guys. On a fixed network now.. grrr.. 
 178 21:45:55
 179 Etienne_
 180 Welcome back pnunn, thank you very much egal for this inside report. 
 181 21:47:25
 182 pnunn

 192 21:48:46
 193 sorry. 
 194 21:48:53
 195 Does that make sense? 
 196 21:53:05
 197 Etienne_
 198 This way? Motion: It is with great regret that the committee has to announce that Mendel (since June 2008), Wytze (since October 2008) and Martin (since November 2012) have left the critical system administrator team as of November 1, 2019 after eleven, resp. seven years loyal service. The committee wants to say a big THANK YOU to Mendel, Wytze and Martin for their valuable contributions to the work of the critical system administrator team during the past years! 
 199 21:53:48
 200 pnunn
 201 Yep. 
 202 21:54:00

 207 21:56:09
 208 Etienne_
 209 2. Arbitration 
 210 21:57:02
 211 I hope, support may help this month Andreas B to start his job. 
 212 21:57:40
 213 pnunn
 214 OK. 
 215 22:00:23
 216 Etienne_
 217 I had just a look, what we could do on this meeting, if Ted and some others are not here. 
 218 22:01:16
 219 2.3.4. Invoice 2018-01: For legal reasons, after the motion has passed, the treasurer has to transfer this amount to secure-U. The money, secure-U became on behalf of CAcert can be used to lower the following ivoices, but not to pay invoices allready sent. (information transfered by secure-U from their Finanzamt) 
 220 22:01:55
 221 I Motion: The treasurer shall pay the invoice 2018-01, 1107.65 EUR to secureU. 
 222 22:01:55
 223 pnunn
 224 OK. Strange, but if that is the way it is.. so be it I guess. 
 225 22:02:02
 226 Seconded. 
 227 22:02:05
 228 Etienne_
 229 aye 
 230 22:02:06
 231 pnunn
 232 and aye. 
 233 22:02:51
 234 Etienne_
 235 pnunn, I am here just 50 km south of Germany, and sometimes I thinkk the same (they probabely about us). 
 236 22:02:56
 237 egal
 238 in germany an invoice has to be paid ... otherwise the tax office/finanzamt will ask, where the money is ... 
 239 22:03:31
 240 pnunn
 241 Oh I see.. so once its raised.. it has to be dealt with via a payment. Fair enough. 
 242 22:03:41
 243 egal
 244 we (at secure-u site) even have to explain, why invoiced are paid in another financial year than we sent it ... 
 245 22:03:52
 246 Etienne_
 247 In Switzerland, an invoice can also be cleared or written off. But secureU is in Germany. 
 248 22:04:06
 249 pnunn
 250 Oh my goodness.. If I had to do that here I'd be buried in paperwork :) 
 251 22:04:26
 252 I think the same here Etienne, as long as its accounted for its OK. 
 253 22:04:55
 254 egal
 255 and ... secure-u is not a company, but a "verein" (=association) ... the rules are more strict there ... 
 256 22:05:16
 257 pnunn
 258 interesting egal, here its probably the other way around. 
 259 22:05:36
 260 egal
 261 btw: a lot of people complain about the hugh amount of paperwork to be done here in germany ... ;-) 
 262 22:05:37
 263 pnunn
 264 I'm president of a brass band, we get away with murder compared to my company. 
 265 22:06:15
 266 I guess it keeps people in jobs egal lol. 
 267 22:07:16
 268 Etienne_
 269 The paperwork is one reasons, why the relocation project points a little bit more southern than Germany. 
 270 22:07:39
 271 egal
 272 it's the "gemeinnuetzer verein" (somehow charity/non-profit) thing ... 
 273 22:08:05
 274 pnunn
 275 I see. 
 276 22:08:09
 277 Etienne_
 278 egal, we are very happy with everything secure-U does for us. 
 279 22:08:42
 280 Even we do not understand sometimes all the issues you have. 
 281 22:09:59
 282 Etienne_
 283 egal, if you see in one of the next days someone from support, could you please ask them to consider to help Andreas B to start his job? 
 284 22:11:21
 285 egal
 286 @etienne: i'll tell my GF, too ... so if she sees somebody from support ... ;-) 
 287 22:11:54
 288 Etienne_
 289 thank you egal, that is very nive from both of you. 
 290 22:12:04
 291 pnunn, do you see anything else we can do in the current composition at this meeting? 
 292 22:12:25
 293 pnunn
 294 I was just looking at that Etienne_ and I don't think so unfortunately. 
 295 22:13:29
 296 Etienne_
 297 egal, Is it true that the solution of the PHP problem is already on the test server for review? 
 298 22:15:21
 299 egal
 300 you should ping Ted about it ... 
 301 22:15:36
 302 Etienne_
 303 On my way home on the bus today, I was wondering whether there might not be a way to issue the certificate with an addon for Firefox and Chrome. Who should be asked? 
 304 22:15:56
 305 egal
 306 ... in the last months i may have missed some details of bugs/patches ... 
 307 22:18:11
 308 Etienne_
 309 There was so much work in the last 2-3 months.... but also a lot of success! 
 310 22:19:25
 311 Etienne_
 312 3. Question Time 
 313 22:19:29

 318 22:21:03
 319 egal
 320 currently no questions from my site ... 
 321 22:21:20
 322 Etienne_
 323 JanDD, bdmc and FD did also a lot. Furthermore I should mention treasurer for akk the thenk you letters after receiving donations. egals journey to the Netherlands any some others more. 
 324 22:22:12
 325 pnunn
 326 Yes, a fantastic effort all round. 
 327 22:22:41
 328 Etienne_
 329 And do not forget the vice president! 
 330 22:23:09
 331 pnunn, what about the next meeting: in 2 weeks on 21.11.2019 and then 10 days later the AGM? Or would you prefer a meeting earlier? 
 332 22:23:10
 333 pnunn
 334 hah.. who did the least of everybody I'm afraid. Just wasn't around sorry. 
 335 22:23:42
 336 I don't mind Etienne_ I think 2 weeks is probably OK, but if you feel more needs to be done earlier, I don't mind either. 
 337 22:25:28
 338 Etienne_
 339 OK, Thu 21.11.2019 meeting and Sat 30.11.2019 AGM. 
 340 22:25:41

 346 22:26:18
 347 i don't have a clue if i payed for this/last financial year ... 
 348 22:26:36

 350 22:26:50
 351 Etienne_
 352 Don't worry, egal. The treasurer started allready - in english ;-) 
 353 22:27:26
