(You'll notice that I have not even been present in IRC) We had some family trips. Anyways, the updates you've all been waiting for. 1. From Joann - the MOU has been passed around and signed by everyone so far (I believe - Jo please correct me here if I am wrong on that). So that means we are totally ready to start collecting money since THT has established a bank account for the Fund. YAY on that. We do have some code for a paypal button, that we could put on the homepage of koha-community.org immediately - but that really needs to be decided by the community as a whole. Let's vote at the next general meeting about that. 2. I have completed a draft of the ByLaws for the committee. That has been passed around to the committee members of the Fund for review, additions, and comments. We have set a 1 week timeline from today for the completion of that. After that we will release it to the whole community for additional comments, additions, and questions. We should have 1~2 weeks of it being publicly available for review before it is voted on at a general irc meeting. 3. ByWater Solutions, Biblibre, and PTFS-Europe have all pledged to submit money to the International Koha Fund to help seed the fund immediately and once we are ready to roll. That way we have some money to do some good projects for the community. 4. Jonathan Druart has resigned from Biblibre effective May 1st and is currently unemployed. I propose the we use some of the money of the Fund to hire him as a contractor to a) sign-off on bugs b) QA bugs c) clean up bugzilla (for example we have a large number of bugs that are major or critical for some that have no patches even written for them, plus there is also a bunch of other clean up that will help every other developer in the community - that honestly none of us really have time to do). Since he has no allegiance to a support provider - he is exactly the third party person we are looking for. Please discuss and I'm sorry to have missed the last general meeting.

I could not find a bug yet, but I would prefer a text link or a self-hosted button over integrating elements from Paypal's servers into the Koha website.
