In attendance were:

anothy, paul, phil, ges, ck, ste, plus, dan (by phone) & michael (by phone).
tal came early, weighed in on the agenda items, and left before the meeting
started. mikea arrived after the 4th minute was recorded.

The meeting started at 8:55pm.

2003-0605-00   Thanks to Cosym for it's support for the Collective in
      it's infancy, as it bids us farewell.

2003-0605-01   Tal and/or our current website maintainers will move site
      maintenance from CVS to Twiki. See http://www.bactram.com/twiki
      or http://twiki.org for more info.

2003-0605-02   The Collective will provide Dan with $120 ($10 from each of us)
      and he will provide us with a system running FreeBSD, that we
      can move the various Collective services to. He has offered to
      absorb any addition cost to obtain the system.

2003-0605-03   The Collective has decided we must continue our search for a
      new name for the Collective. We would like to move away from
      having "what" in the name, and it's agreed we don't want
      "geek" in the name either.

2003-0605-04   After discussion we've developed a set of newly identified
      requirements that the Collective's financial tracking program
      must meet.  They are: transaction id numbers, transaction
      receipts, ability to display an exploded (per person) version
      of all compound transactions, the periodic recording of
      checkpoint balances, and password protected secure web access to
      the program.  Also, the standard finance tools shall only
      provide an append only interface for modifying the data. Any
      other changes to the data shall be limited to exceptional
      circumstances and require documented rationale and Collective
      approval for any such change.  Additionally, some members feel
      the following are requirements, but there is not yet a
      consensus regarding them: that the exploded view of compound
      entries be stored as the authoritative data to be used in
      subsequent calculations, and that the periodic balance entries
      should also be entered into the main transaction log as
      authoritative data.

2003-0605-05   Those members who so desire, are encouraged to develop or
      identify tools that meet the requirements of the prior minute
      and present them at the next meeting for discussion and
      possible approval.

2003-0605-06   Phil will discontinue the phone line in the basement.

2003-0605-07   It is decided that everyone will continue to enter their
      transactions into O, using either the command line or email
      interfaces, until the above stated requirements are met.
      Anothy will send out instructions on how to access 9srv and
      bank, and how to use bank via the command line and email
      interfaces. He will also ensure everyone has a working
      9srv account. He will do this within 24 hours.

The meeting was adjourned at 12:07am.
