Correspondence
+
+None.
+
+!4.
Hoiho & hosting.
+
+Craig McKenna has asked us to seek alternative hosting because Hoiho is using too much bandwidth.
+
+Options offered so far:
+
+* FX Networks - $100/mo
+* CRCnet - very likely, needs small server
+* BSD's office
+
+Want to pay nothing. 1U preferable for hiding in other peoples' hosting - being considerate on rack space.
+
+* New server/new hosting
+* Current server/new hosting
+* International hosting (rimuhosting.com)
+
+Options for getting a machine:
+
+* Approach someone who sells them (IBM/HP/Dell etc)
+* Approach a big name Linux vendor (RedHat/Novell)
+* Approach someone with an interest in the community
+* Four companies putting up $500 each (Infometrics owe us some favours)
+* Free virtual hosting
+* Second hand machine out of subscriptions
+* Paid virtual hosting
+* New machine out of subscriptions
+
+__Action:__ Write letters, do stuff. Find out how long CraigM will continue hosting, look at moving it immediately to BSD if required.
+

Meetings
+
+November meeting topic: No meeting topic. To be followed up on mailing list and have someone take responsibility by end of tomorrow.
+
+Gian's place still on offer (Taharua Rd) - 12km out of Hamilton, might be better to get somewhere close; tentative date is 18 December. Effort to be made to make the barbeque more inclusive. Venue and date to be confirmed by the next meeting.
+
+No formal committee meeting arranged for December; will start up again in January.
