Michael was not present but had sent out the November 2013 report in advance of the meeting. There was a query from drycafe about seeing a breakdown of wire transfers to a project and Bdale he should file an RT ticket. Jimmy also mentioned the fact that we have a backlog of treasurer reports.
Secretary's report
Jonathan was not present.
Outstanding minutes
As Jonathan was not present it was decided to postpone voting on the outstanding meeting minutes until April.
Items up for discussion
Status of SPI's support infrastructure for associated project services
Hilmar Lapp of OBF asked for this item to be included on the agenda due to delays in handling various DNS related requests. The domains had been transferred to SPI but not yet configured for DNS hosting by SPI. Joerg indicated the SPI sysadmin team consisted of just him and Michael and that this was not enough as they were both generally busy. There had been at least one offer of help on the SPI lists that Joerg was going to pursue, and he said we could expect an update by the next meeting.
Any other business
No one had any other items to discuss.
Adjournment
The meeting was adjourned until Thursday, April 10th, 2014 at 20:00 UTC in #spi on irc.spi-inc.org.
