      procedures and be prepared to review them at the next meeting.
      Members should email suggested changes or concerns, if any, to
      the collective for discussion. (Carried over from 2002-0923.)

2002-1028-01   The collective thanks Anothy for bringing the food for this
      month's meeting. Tal will arrange for the next meeting's food.

New business:

2002-1028-02   The collective will have a "racking party" immediately
      following next month's meeting, on Nov. 25th. Ges, who
      previous stated he would aquire the needed screws, will
      have them ready by that date, and will coordinate with
      plus, before that date, to test said screws, to ensure
      that they are up to the task at hand.

2002-1028-03   There will be no meeting of the collective in December.
      However, everyone is invited to attend tal's December
      party, date to be announced via email.

2002-1028-04   Due to a system failure, the collective is without a bank
      or console server, but anothy, et al., is working on it.
      He anticipates restoring console service by the next
      meeting and the bank well before that date.

2002-1028-05   At the end of the current billing cycle, November 27th,
      the collective's old addresses will be released to MegaPath.
      Collective members will ensure that they no longer need those
      addresses, prior to that date. Ges will schedule the give-back
      with MegaPath, as apropriate.

The meeting was adjourned at 9:14pm.
