President's Report

Bdale Garbee thanked Valessio Brito for the improved look of the SPI web site, implemented during DebConf! We had a good BOF too, and the video is available.

Treasurer's report

Michael Schultheiss has published the July treasurer's report and is working on the August report.

The 2015 NYS and Federal filings have been filed and accepted.

Michael is still working with the bookkeepers to get periodic reports from them. Michael will meet with Martin Michlmayr and Bradley M. Kuhn next week to discuss the bookkeeping process.
