Other branded merchandise? * Opportunity cost? == Membership == * Formally request the membership officials to add two more people * AI ddemaio: sent email to members and board * Discuss a better system for recording and assessing members once we have more officials, including trying to recover lost list of Emeritus Members from a connect backup. == FOSDEM Update == * geekos.io had success accepting donations for Goods at a booth. == Private Topics == * Should we keep private minutes in a private ticket in code.o.o rather then just via email?
