Matters arising
+
+The Waikato University Computer Science department have again kindly agreed to sponsor the cost of room bookings for our meetings for the year. The room [TW.2.07|TW] was well received and we are happy to continue using it.
+
+Orcon payment for the www.wlug.org.nz domain has been sorted. In return for their continued sponsorship, the WLUG committee will suggest its members use Orcon products and services.
+
+The wiki software was upgraded, and then downgraded again due to it stressing the hardware and causing faults (see point 5 below)

Ian will co-ordinate writing of a letter on the wiki, and we will aim to have them off with in two weeks, to have answers for the next meeting.
