Minutes from previous meeting
+
+Motion: that the minutes are a true and accurate record of the previous meeting
+
+Moved GreigMcGill%%%
+Seconded GianPerrone
+
+!Motion passed
+
+!2. Matters arising from previous meeting
+
+PerryLorrier still to announce Exim4 Video to list. Confirm With Craig as to whether InstallFest sponsors were thanked/followed up.
+
+!3. Correspondence
+
+* No correspondence was received.
+
+!4. Treasurers report
+
+The treasurer was not present, however the financial position of the WLUG has not altered since the last report.
+
+!5. Map out meetings through to September including AGM
+
+July: Denise Tyrer-Harding from Pipers to be confirmed, but initial emails confirm she is happy to present.
+
+August: Peter Guttman tentatively - Perry to confirm.
+
+September: AGM only - possibility of meeting not ruled out if any ideas are presented.
+
+!6. Review of fundraising ideas
+
+WEL Energy Trust application due in September. Test rig still primary option.
+
+!7. Hoiho - When/How shall we upgrade to Sarge, and Who should do this?
+
+John to prepare upgrade plan with services and customisations (checklist and backup strategy).
+Upgrade to be done before Saturday the 25th of June.
+
+!8. The Wiki Debate
+
+We want to achieve:
+
+* We want to display clean rendering to all viewers.
+* We want to maintain one style of markup language, which should be as flexible and as simple as possible.
+* We want to have a clean, maintained platform which is easily upgraded.
+* We want to ensure any modifications made are not wasted - the OSS community should benefit.
+
+
+The following considerations were discussed:
+
+* PhpWiki is still being actively developed, albeit slowly.
+* MediaWiki is being heavily and actively developed.
+* MoinMoin uses flat files - this rules it out.
+
+Conclusion - Two approaches will be attempted in tandem:
+
+* After upgrading to Sarge, we will look at slowly moving our codebase towards the current PhpWiki release. JohnMcPherson and PerryLorier will work on this.
+* JamieCurtis and MattBrown will attempt to upgrade to the current release in a single action.
+
+!9. Relicensing Wiki content under CreativeCommons
+
+MattBrown - please fill me in.
+
+!10. General business
+
+!10.1. DanielLawson wished to clarify the position of WLUG regarding use of funds with regard to:
+
+* Planned expenses
+* Possible expenses
+
+GreigMcGill will work out average expenditure with CraigMcKenna from the last 3 years, and extrapolate this into a very basic operating budget.
+
+The committee felt this was relatively unnecessary, given the low levels of funding involved, and the relatively small operating requirements of the group.
+Our financial records are available from the Treasurer on request at any time.
+
+!10.2. NZLUG Wiki
+
+Discussion post-nzlug mailing list thread.
+
+Motion: If there is an appropriate indication from NZLUG that it is desirable, Perry will put up an NZLUG branded entrypoint into the WLUG Wiki.
+
+Moved PerryLorier%%%
+Seconded MattBrown
+
+Meeting closed at 9:29pm.
