Summary of topics (ordered by discussion):

• Election system
• eV: bank account
• maemo trademarks

Topic (Election system):

• MentalistTraceur hasn't looked into the PHP code for elections, yet.
• juiceme is looking into change in authentication required for personal voting links to work.
• juiceme: sending mail to just GA is possible with a bit of tweaking. For now, it could be a specific user table containing just the current GA members, to be used as input for the voting engine.
  In the future, a flag in the midgard_users table, to indicate whether the user is GA member or not, would be preferable...
  Chemist will ask merlin1991 (garage admin) about the group options in garage for the MCeV.
• The modifications can be seen at:
  svn diff https://toosa.swagman.org/svn/maemo_elections@r3 https://toosa.swagman.org/svn/maemo_elections@r4
  Now keep in mind that juiceme *has* *not* *tested* *this* at all, he just wrote it like it *should* work
• According to BGB (German, English), the only minimum is 1 EU-director.
  According to Bylaws, there should be at least 3 EU-directors (at least 21 years of age, EU residents or citizens).

Topic (eV: bank account):

• Chemist needs a slot in his schedule free where the bank has actual working hours... the accountant was busy with being off work for all occasions chemist could free up so far - after that we have a bank account for MCeV (Thursday or next week).
• About donations: MCeV will accept bitcoin as soon as we get it sorted! ;-)
• We need to pester the US members of Hildon Foundation to do the tax declaration, Win7Mac has had several attempts with no response...
• Complete history of transactions (donations and expenses) from past to present would be nice...

Topic (maemo trademarks):

• Maemo Council will publish the announcement about Maemo trademarks registration-renewal on TMO, after chemist is back with a bank account number.
  The announcement will likely be published in the same way as meeting minutes are: at maemo.org, at talk.maemo.org, and at maemo-community mailing list.

Action Items:

• -- old items:
  • The selected Code of Conduct (KDE) still needs to be published on (T)MO.
  • Looking into automatic calculation of election results ...
  • Addition of personal voting link into email template in the DB of election system...
  • Contacting freemangordon and merlin1991 about auto-builder: CSSU-thumb target, GCC versions?
  • Contacting X-Fade, as well as Freenode staff directly, about the GC.
  • Getting maemo trademark registration (everywhere?) renewed (and transferred to MCeV) by the end of February (or within six months since expiry date).
  • archiving Ovi/Nokia store, especially for Harmattan.
• -- new items:
