Standing Reports

Treasurer's report

The financial picture is not good because we are not bringing in members or sponsorships to meet our debts. We are meeting our expenses currently because of the success of PICC. We are hampered by the fact that we are not getting timely financial data.

Membership report

Membership is flat. Our database is making it very difficult to get a handle on the numbers.

Technical services report

Rich reported that Travis told him he would report to Jesse and Jesse would report to the board but Jesse is not here. Philip will contact Travis and Jesse,

Conference/events activities report

We will have a table and pamphlets at the USENIX Federated Conference week next week. Bennett will setup the table and banners with some brochures but won't be staying with the booth. Bennet will try to find some volunteers by writing to BBLISA and asking in the lopsagram

Upcoming MtM

Bennett will get out the memo to members June 15 (tomorrow) or shortly there after.
