+__Motion passed__
+
+The outgoing committee will call for nominations when the meeting is announced. People wishing to stand will be asked to contact the secretary; people wishing to nominate others are encouraged to consult them in person in the first instance, or contact the secretary to do this on their behalf if they desire.
+
+The committee also intend on surveying members before the AGM to provide a summary at the AGM; this will also be handled by Craig.
+
+Greig is to look over the WlugCharter for any changes that need to be made; we intend to clarify the rules regarding calling a Special General Meeting. We also intend to propose a change to the charter that will reduce the committee size from 9 to 7 (four executive and three general members, down from five) in order to make the committee size more representative of the organisation, and reduce the quorum for a committee meeting accordingly.

+
+* Informal offsite backups of Hoiho are made irregularly. John is to handle formalising this, possibly with CraigMckenna or ItPartners to script a download of a backup tar.gz.
+* A spec will be written for Perry to adjust the formatting of the output generated by the meeting reminder bot.
+* The next meeting still has no topic; we are examining options including a "Bring Your Own Machine" meeting.
+* There has been a suggestion that WLUG should run more regular social events; this will be surveyed in the AGM survey.
+
+Meeting closed at 9:17pm.
