RLim brought forth ideas for the Remix project. He suggested Wordpress for victorious crowdsourced policies, forum for discussion & suggestions. Those in attendance were generally in favour.

There was a brief discussion about spending in advance of an election, including clarification that the Federal level can spend without restriction until the writ is dropped & that candidates cannot raise or spend until after affirmed by their riding's RO. This lead into a discussion about candidates. Shawn Gray announced that Kenneth Dyson would not be running in 2015 after all. He had to step back due to employment issues. According to phillipsjk we're down to maybe 4 confirmed candidates, but have 2 prospective candidates in the pipe according to RLim. Those 2 potential may or may not include SVulliez & a Victoria candidate.

There was some discussion about PM software, and it seems Redmine was the general winner, though no firm decision was made.

A lot of work is still being done to migrate servers & Techrev put forth his name to help.
