-  * John has been trying to put a copy of the Distro on a 1 TB drive that goes into a tray. %%**%% There have been issues with timing of the opening of the tray and boot up and the boot repair ISO being only legacy and not EFI. %%**%% It got set up manually by doing GPT partitioning and running boot-repair by getting it dynamically. ALso have not been able to get a persistent live USB that is EFI.

-  * We need either a new home or a change of meeting night. As the library has decided to run a youth program on alternating Thursdays, we can’t even keep a Thursday night as our meeting night unless we find a new venue. We need to ask the membership if they prefer a new venue or a new night (or afternoon) for meetings. I can put it up for a vote on doodle Poll: Should we use Doodle https://doodle.com/poll/549gp7kfv6gqri4w %%**%% impromptu poll during the meeting seemed to favour a new night rather than a new venue due to the popularity of the Library and the difficulty of finding an alternative. %%**%% There is still a requirement to poll the membership

-  * Given the recent discussion on using slack, should we go back to IRC? This was an experiment in using Slack, but we will soon be at the limits of our free plan and start losing history. In that vein, does anyone have irc bot experience? I have never bothered writing one and it would br nice to have a few bot actions available for replying on IRC with next meeting info, etc. %%**%% arguments made both for IRC and for slack, but it should have to go to the membership. %%**%% Primary argument against Slack is a monetary one %%**%% Question posed: Do we have next board meeting in an IRC instead of Slack? - majority agreed to suggestion.
