23:06 <alanc> so I don't have anything noted for today's agenda - there's probably some things we need to get back to that were caught in the e-mail backlog on foundation.x.org that finally cleared a couple weeks ago, but the only recent e-mail I saw was the student asking about EVoC, which Alex answered
23:07 <+Bart_Massey> OK.  We probably need to push on the Never-Ending Corporate Transition again at some point soon.
23:07 <+Bart_Massey> Did we finally sort out what we wanted to do about trademarks?
23:08 <alanc> yeah, I need to get the paperwork/details I need to deal with on the transition one of these days
23:08 <+Bart_Massey> Yes, I think I have some of it, cworth has some, and keith has some.  Sigh.
23:08 <+Bart_Massey> Maybe Karen Sandler has all of it, though.
23:09 <+Bart_Massey> I'd suggest you start by just contacting Karen and finding out where we are and what still needs to be done.
23:09 <+Bart_Massey> She would probably like to meet you anyway.
23:10 <alanc> okay, can you send me her contact info?
23:10 <+Bart_Massey> How do I work this IRC thing anyhow?  Is there a better way to get a prviate channel than DCC chat?
23:11 <+emmes> Bart_Massey:  /q or /msg
23:11  * Bart_Massey s/prviate/private/
23:11 <alanc> the last notes I have on trademarks were that someone (Matt Dew maybe?) was going to ask SFLC for advice, but that we were in favor of spending $750 to register in the US at least
23:11 <alanc> http://www.x.org/wiki/BoardOfDirectors/MeetingSummaries/2010/03-30
23:11 <+Bart_Massey> emmes: thanks
23:11 <agd5f> sorry I'm late
23:11 <+Bart_Massey> alanc: ok; I think you are in touch with Matt on this one
23:12 <alanc> am I?  I thought you were
23:12 <+Bart_Massey> alanc: I am also, but I thought you and he were working on it now. :-)
23:12 <+Bart_Massey> Anyway, let's the three of us get some email going on this.  It can't be that hard.
23:14 <agd5f> karen emailed keith and I last week.  We need to get out 1023 form in.  I volunteered to fill out the 1023 irs form, but I may need some help with some of the info.  Also we need an address.
23:14 <agd5f> s/out/our/
23:15 <+Bart_Massey> agd5f Is it OK with Karen if we use SFLC as our address for this for now?
23:15 <agd5f> Bart_Massey: I'll ask her
23:18 <+Bart_Massey> move to adjourn
23:18 <agd5f> also, one more item on my list.  We had a evoc request
23:19 <+Bart_Massey> i'm way behind on my email from being out of town for a week
23:19 <+Bart_Massey> what was the request?
23:19 <agd5f> joshua clayton, one of the gsoc applicants that didn't make it
23:20 <agd5f> prime (multi-gpu power saving stuff)
23:20 <+Bart_Massey> I think we should probably discuss this privately?
23:20 <agd5f> I told him to submit his request to the board
23:20 <agd5f> sure
23:20 <alanc> I hadn't seen a formal proposal from him yet, just the request for info
23:21 <+Bart_Massey> maybe there's nothing to discuss until we have a formal request?
23:21 <+Bart_Massey> or application or whatever we're calling it?
23:21 <agd5f> yeah
23:21 <+Bart_Massey> OK, that's easy :-)
23:22 <+emmes> i would say so. if he won't file a formal request i'd rather think it's doubtfull that he would finish his work...
23:22 <+Bart_Massey> :-)
23:22 <agd5f> sounds good
23:22 <+emmes> also: less work for us :-P
23:23 <+Bart_Massey> renew motion to adjourn
23:23 <alanc> seconded
