the meeting. Some items from the minutes may not be listed if the action was
not significant enough to warrant a listing here.

noteworthy should simply be removed from the items list when completed. Use
your judgement.

ITEM: Wiki license
OPENED: 2013-06-27
Request for translation lead to the realization we don't have a license on
the wiki pages. License for future contributions will be CC-BY-SA, for
existing wiki pages the situation is unclear. SFLC will be contacted for
comment.
Julien suggested to use MIT after last week's decision for CC-BY-SA. MIT
allows us to move content from the wiki into documentation without having to
worry about the license.
Licensing information has been added to the wiki
ACTION: Matt D to contact SFLC for pre-existing content
STATUS: Pending
ITEM: Finance
OPENED: 2013-08-08
HSBC closed our checking account with no notice. The monthly "analysis fee"
used to come out of the savings account if the checking account was negative
but apparently HSBC changed that without notice and then closed our account.
ACTION: Stuart K to re-open a new account or change banks
STATUS: Pending
ITEM: GSoC finance
OPENED: 2013-08-08
Google provides some money to the sponsoring organisation. We need to check
our status as org and whether we've gotten this in the last years and make
sure we get it this year.
ACTION: Stuart K to check previous/current mentor payments
STATUS: Pending
ITEM: 501(c)(3)
OPENED: 2013-08-22
We lost 501(c)(3) status because the tax returns for the last 3 years didn't
get filed on time. This was a surprise, but the IRS appears to be much
rougher this year. SFLC advises that re-application would be hard, including
the need to prove we won't miss any returns in the future.
Without the 501(c)(3) we are a non-tax exempt entity
An alternative option is to join an umbrella org to do the tax-related stuff
for us, e.g. Software in the Public Interest, Software Freedom Conservancy,
Apaache Foundation, Eclipse Foundation.
ACTION: Board members to read up on potential umbrella orgs
STATUS: Pending decision at XDC
