Correspondence
+
+We have received a letter from to Companies Office reminding us to submit our financial statements.
+
+!4.
Treasurers report
+
+Ian is handling submission of 2005 and 2006 financial reports to the IRD and the Companies Office as appropriate.
+
+!5.
Software Freedom Day rundown
+
+Software Freedom Day was successful and well received by the members of the public who attended. Most of the goals we set out were addressed. We collected e-mail addresses from 35 people on the day but have only had 4 people enter our draw so far. Ian is going to draft an e-mail to send out to those addresses tomorrow.
+
+There have been a number of complaints about the actions of a WLUG member. Lindsay will address the issue with this member.
+
+We had a lot of help on the day from people who were not involved with the planning, and need a way of addressing this on the way.
+
+People were in general happy to receive the software. One lady was on her way to buy a commercial Office package, and is very happy that we "saved her $250". Overall, the helpers were very happy with the response from the audience.
+
+The difference between [Free] and [free] wasn't well defined on the display; next time we should pay more attention. We also were unable to have an XGL display; this wasn't a huge concern because the technology to give it to people on a CD isn't quite ready.
+
+!6.
Security certificates
+
+We will ask Jamie to handle purchasing a second SSL for 'mail.wlug.org.nz', approaching Metanet and weighing the price against online vendors.
+
+!7.
Hard drive for blade
+
+We have had a drive fail; Ian will contact Buddika to see if we can get a replacement drive from HP. Failing that:
+
+Motion: to authorise the purchase of a replacement hard drive if necessary
+
+Moved: IanMcDonald%%%
+Seconded: LindsayDruett
+
+Perry will move the Planet/library web sites to www2 in the interim.
