18:43 < JohannWeiss> CCitizen, RLim, svulliez, Wilson 18:43 < JohannWeiss> Calling this meeting to order 18:43 < JohannWeiss> I will be chairing this meeting 18:44 Aloha 18:44 < JohannWeiss> Last weeks minutes: http://wiki.pirateparty.ca/index.php/EB_2012-11-25_minutes 18:44 <@CCitizen> I think adpaolucci had it but it's pretty much dropped dead around september 18:46 < JohannWeiss> CCitizen? 18:46 <@CCitizen> Yeah? 18:46 < JohannWeiss> I don't understand your last comment 18:46 <@CCitizen> About the graph 18:46 < JohannWeiss> Right 18:46 < JohannWeiss> Wilson emailed me 18:46 < JohannWeiss> I'm trying to pin down what exactly was done on that day 18:47 < JohannWeiss> No objections to the minutes, so they are accepted unanimously 18:47 <@CCitizen> Didnt we change from the old website to the new one that day? 18:47 <@CCitizen> err in September 18:48 < JohannWeiss> We have no agenda, so any motions can be brought forward now 18:48 < JohannWeiss> Yes, it was around there, but we did several things different 18:48 < JohannWeiss> Like, we added the https, we made the new site, and we transitioned to the new forums 18:49 < JohannWeiss> That graph showed an exact drop off point, so whatever changed that day is a problem 18:49 < JohannWeiss> and it hasn't been resolved 18:49 < RLim> well our site was going down a lot also around that time 18:49 < RLim> so people might just gave up and think it's always down 18:50 < RLim> someone mentioned at irc also that he never bothered to sign up on the new website because he thought transition is not done yet 18:50 < JohannWeiss> Can we say the transition is done? 18:51 I think more work should be done 18:51 Some loose ends to work out 18:51 I think 18:52 <@CCitizen> We need BMO to wake the fuck up and give Jake access 18:52 If we hired a second set of eyes to look over what Jake has done we'd be better suited to announce it's completion 18:52 True that 18:52 < RLim> I wondered what has changed though because the server used to work fine 18:52 < RLim> but that's under Nuitari so he probably knows his setup 18:53 < JohannWeiss> I think site activity is also hurting us. The forums look dead, which stops new people from joining 18:54 < JohannWeiss> So why don't we just try to use it a bit, to increase activity and encourage members to use it more 18:54 Agreed 18:54 < JohannWeiss> I mean, if we aren't even willing to use our forums, why would they. 18:56 < JohannWeiss> So yeah, it would be good if we all tried to post a few times this week 18:59 < JohannWeiss> Wilson and Shawn, check this http://riclim.com/forum/discussion/21/some-questions-about-party-duties#Item_4 18:59 < JohannWeiss> I tried to email it to the council last week and it failed 18:59 < JohannWeiss> I don't think I have personally adresses for all y'all, so can you guys pass it on to the council? 19:01 < JohannWeiss> So yeah, any motions or business? 19:09 < JohannWeiss> And now we lost qourum 19:09 < JohannWeiss> *sigh* 19:09 < JohannWeiss> Right, so I'm not seeing any business 19:10 < RLim> none from me 19:10 < JohannWeiss> I'd like to hear from Jake about the bank again, there were plans for last week 19:10 < JohannWeiss> but he's not here 19:10 < RLim> he did not make it to Nanaimo branch 19:10 < JohannWeiss> Damnit 19:10 < RLim> I suggested he asked for ombudsman of BMO 19:11 < RLim> they normally accepts complains 19:11 < RLim> and there's several serious issue IMHO 19:11 < RLim> first we are not getting any statement 19:11 < RLim> Nuitari is but he is no loinger involved and what is sent to him we can't see 19:11 < RLim> second we can't access our account. 19:12 < RLim> There must be some law about holding on to someone else's money and not allowing them to access 19:12 < RLim> CCitizen, Jake and I all confirmed our signatures were sent as per our branch 19:13 < RLim> so next step might be to e-mail ***** outlining the issues and tell her it is causing serious damage to our organization 19:13 < RLim> that we are unable to pay our bills 19:13 < RLim> at the same time get try to get the ombudsman contact 19:13 < RLim> maybe from all our branch 19:13 < RLim> including ***** 19:14 < RLim> I gave Jake's ******* e-mail 19:14 < RLim> *Jake 19:14 < RLim> done 19:14 < JohannWeiss> Do you have time to talk to him about this stuff before the next meeting, maybe get one of you to send out that email? 19:15 < RLim> I can e-mail Jake but not sure if I'll get a response in time 19:16 < JohannWeiss> svulliez: any chance you'll be seeing Jake within the next 4 days? 19:16 < JohannWeiss> Since we lost quorum, we may as well adjourn the meeting 19:18 < JohannWeiss> So meeting adjourned due to lack of qourum
