Nothing new from Affiliate.

2 Business

2.1 Payment request by Oophaga

Regular hosting payment for Q1+Q2 requested by Robert from Oophaga. No invoice currently available due to personal circumstances, one will be provided later. Since this is a regular payment for BIT hosting, Board agrees that Treasurer shall authorise Ian to make the payment (approved outside meeting by m20120622.1).

Proposal to empower Treasurer to make regular hosting payments to Oophaga without involving Board has been withdrawn - this is supposed to be a once-off situation, we will usually get an invoice beforehand and follow proper procedure.

Suitable location for storing the invoice and similar documents will be discussed, private area of SVN has been suggested.

2.2 Appoint Marek Michał Mazur to Support Engineer

Successfully ABCd, initiation of ABC by Support team leader counts as an proposal to appoint the candidate - motion m20120628.1 carried.

2.3 Accept Marek Michał Mazur as an Association Member

Membership application accepted by m20120628.2.

2.4 Assurer events in Australia
