Do you think TriLUG is big enough for that? 17:51:20 <Jmainguy> raub: howdy 17:51:23 <Jmainguy> #chair raub 17:51:23 <Tribot> Current chairs: Jmainguy jeoff raub 17:51:30 <raub> Hey. FInch crashed onme 17:52:00 <Jmainguy> jeoff: I believe we can certainly qualify for the 501c3, and if we do all the work to get there, I would also likely commit to following up with the org once a year to ensure they are meeting the requirements 17:52:02 <Jmainguy> raub: no worries 17:52:31 <Jmainguy> we are talking about potentially going for the 501c3 again, I like the idea as I can get time off of work if we do, and they will match a donation if I do 17:52:37 <jeoff> raub: Finches should probably stay in the air 17:52:58 <raub> jeoff: you have a point 17:53:44 <Jmainguy> https://steering.trilug.org/wiki/index.php/LegalStatus is a good additional document to review along with that 2010 meeting.wav 17:53:45 <raub> Jmainguy: we fought and sunk money to get the 503c back. I would like to see it happening, but I have no skills on that 17:53:54 <Jmainguy> raub++ 17:54:28 <Jmainguy> yeah I would like to see it happening, and I need to talk myself into getting 501c3 skills and committing to doing it for us to commit to it as an org 17:54:34 <Jmainguy> unless someone else volunteers to be that person 17:54:41 <raub> jeoff: can you access the trilug website repo now? 17:54:46 <Jmainguy> so thats where I am at with it 17:54:59 <raub> Jmainguy: I thought you said you had family who spoke their language 17:55:09 <Jmainguy> raub: I do, I would definitly lean on them 17:55:15 <raub> Bribery FTW 17:55:18 <Jmainguy> =) 17:56:33 <Jmainguy> anything else on the 501c3 topic before we move on? 17:56:58 <jeoff> Jmainguy: nope 17:57:09 <raub> Nope 17:57:15 <Jmainguy> #topic free talk 17:57:25 <Jmainguy> jeoff: check dat git access for raub 17:57:48 <Jmainguy> raub: you doing alright? have a good week? 17:58:11 <raub> Not bad 18:00:00 <jeoff> Jmainguy: hello jeoff, this is git@pilot running gitolite3 v3.6.6-6-g7c8f0ab on git 1.7.9.5 18:00:01 <Jmainguy> good 18:00:04 <jeoff> is that what we need? 18:00:11 <Jmainguy> I believe so 18:00:14 <Jmainguy> jeoff++ 18:00:31 <jeoff> raub++ for being persistent through my stubbornness 18:01:03 <raub> jeoff: Now you will be able to take a look (again) at the donation page bdmc created 18:02:11 <jeoff> raub: where is that page again? 18:02:59 <raub> I will need to check, but I do not think bdmc and I were able to have it pushed through the repo. So chances are it is in the server itself 18:03:18 <jeoff> Ah, makes sense 18:03:38 <raub> With that said, AFIK until we get the 503c we will need to declare those donations 18:03:45 <jeoff> #action jeoff find the donation page 18:04:16 <raub> For Matt Flyer, does he now have access? 18:04:43 <raub> I did not know if you wanted to go through the instructions to onboard a steering member to see if they work 18:05:28 <jeoff> Should we set up a call to go through that with him? 18:06:49 <raub> Might be helpful 18:07:34 <jeoff> #action jeoff set up a meeting with the new guy 18:07:41 <Jmainguy> by declare, I think we have to pay 21% to the gov for each one 18:07:56 <raub> Let me know if you need help, jeoff 18:08:05 <Jmainguy> raub: yeah I think jeoff and I need to onboard him, so that we can review the doc 18:08:18 <Jmainguy> dont want to put that burden on you again, but we will def ping u if we get stuck 18:08:30 <raub> Jmainguy: I was expecting something salty like that; IRS does like its piece of action 18:08:35 <raub> K 18:09:03 <raub> The wiki page describing the server resrouces should still be accurate 18:09:40 <Jmainguy> raub++ yeah I think they are, you did a good job on those 18:10:24 <raub> Don't know about good job; it was just desperation: we needed data so we could decide how to deal with the beast 18:11:07 <Jmainguy> =) 18:13:29 <raub> Anything else we need to cover? 18:13:54 <Jmainguy> I got nothing 18:13:58 <Jmainguy> jeoff: ^^? 18:14:08 <jeoff> I just Jmainguy: nothing 18:14:16 <Jmainguy> thank you all for your continued service to the LUG 18:14:24 <Jmainguy> #endmeeting
