Stone, Donnie Berkholz, Matthieu Herrb.

Absent board members: Adam Jackson, Alan Coopersmith.

Bart starts off with explaining the banking situation; he and Keith "went down
to open a bank account at US Bank a week ago", but they failed. Turns out that
they need a letter from Karen, the SFLC lawyer for X.org, to be able to open
an account. Then it dawns on them that neither has tried to contact Karen so
far, and Bart says that he will mail her after the meeting. Bart concludes the
banking situation with "Anyway, we're working on it..."

Bart then talks about freedesktop.org administration, but nobody has anything
to add to this topic.

Bart asks for the status of XDC, and Donnie replies that there are "20 people
signed up now" but that the "program is pretty epmty". Many of the board
members offer talks, and Keith even adds that he has "a list of talks from
plumbers that aren't being accepted", which can then be held at XDC. Bart is
worried about the reserved rooms that are still unused, for which Keith
proposes to send "A suitable note indicating that conf hotel bookings are
about to time-out".

Bart then mentions that the accepted candidate for Endless Vacation of Code has
"a day job for the Summer", and that they've "agreed to defer until Fall". He
adds that all "students passed the SoC midterms".

Bart then concludes the full meeting and moves on to the election committee
only, which leaves just him and Daniel. Bart says that they "need an elections
chair, and to get the software working", and volunteers to be the chair. Daniel
will talk to Eric to see what needs to be done about the software, and then 
the meeting is disbanded.

No motions were presented in this meeting, no voting took place.
