+ | -Conflict of Interest Guidelines: | ||

+ | GPLS transfer of assets | ||
+ | |||
+ | Elizabeth provided an update on transfer of GPLS assets to SFC. | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Funds from 2009 Conference have been sent in but payment not yet recorded (per Dan). | ||
+ | * GPLS has further assets to transfer to SFC. Work on this is in progress | ||
+ | |||
+ | Dan reported some donations have come in via the donations widgets on the website but that June financials won't be available until later this week. | ||
+ | People need to know that when they send in donations (outside of the donations link) any other way, they need to designate them as Evergreen donations, otherwise they go to SFC generally. | ||
+ | Also, donations can be targeted to a specific Evergreen-related projects. Use the additional comment field when sending in money via the website to indicate that or indicate it in your cover note when sending in a check. | ||
+ | Dan/Stephen follow up conversation with developers regarding software releases | ||
+ | |||
+ | Discussion continued from last meeting about how best to address the concerns about the release process after some libraries reported issues with the latest release. | ||
+ | Dan felt that an explanation of how to resolve issues and when to involve the Board should be addressed somewhere other than the bylaws. The group decided it was unnecessary to modify the current bylaws related to defining the role of the Board. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2. Financial Report | ||
+ | See GPLS transfer of assets section. | ||
+ | |||

Lori will try to get the Communications Committee going again. In the meantime, the group agreed that the Oversight Board would work on some of these issues. | ||
+ | * how to you propose ideas and get feedback from the community | ||
+ | * explain silence = consent, +1 to mean yes and -1 to mean no (with explanation) | ||

+ | 2013 joint conference with Koha – Amy was contacted by Vicki Teal Lovely and David Schuster, KUDOS co-chairs (Koha Users Group) to see if the Koha and Evergreen conferences could be combined in 2013. Amy asked the Board what would be the best way to gauge the community reaction. | ||
+ | 2011, 2010 Conferences – ESI has determined the profit for the 2010 conference. | ||
