Called to order at 7:30

1. EB requested we clarify the purpose of CaPT CCitizen's answer:

"1) To promote BitTorrent as a distribution method for artists and other people who make content.      2) To share and preserve our cultural heritage"

Discussion ensues

''The purpose of CaPT is to promote BitTorrent as a distribution method for artists and other people who make content, and to share and preserve our cultural heritage. CaPT is not intended for copyright infringement or for distribution of illegal materials.''

Unanimous approval of the above wording

2. Apparently we don't have a welcome email for new members, so let's pick someone to make it.

- Johann and Shawn will take responsibility for writing a welcome email for next week. EB/IT will ensure that the emails are going out

3. EB also requested we look at the VPN promise Several options discussed:

- banked accounts for emergency usage (eg. giving them to Tunisia in the Arab Spring) - give members a second account to gift - implement the system as it was intended to be

We need to inform the VPN subscribers

Question: Should we ask them for input before deciding what route to take?

Alt: Decide on an option, inform subscribers and ask for feedback

Conclusion: Jake will write up the email to inform subscribers of the situation and email it around. We will discuss and think on the options, and bring it back to the next meeting.

4. Minutes

No votes or conclusive statements.

5. James Wilson has a project idea for keeping tabs on MPs

When James has finished his project will will review and decide if we can approve it
