- all members attending

- Election procedure was discussed:

• since the Squeak People website is defunct a page listing all the eligible voters needs to be created and posted on squeak.org
• might be similar to Sugar Labs (another SFC member project) http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_Labs/Members/List
• a person would be eligible to vote by having shown they’d made a contribution
• as there is a conflict of interest, not the board, but the election team should approve contributors
• possibly this could be automated, e.g. by adding a Squeak People-like network of trust to Squeak Map
• this discussion needs to be public on Squeak-Dev

- A beta version of Etoys 5 has been released (http://squeakland.org/download)

- Colin discussed creating remote tools for work on a mini Squeak image:

• While Smalltalk offers reflection, the ideal is to have a program as unaffected by its tools as a program is by a text editor
• Colin uses a miniature image for the Atom feed of his website wiresong.ca. He built the image from Pavel’s core using the Mason build tool. He is planning to post a link to Squeak-Dev to allow people to download this image

- All members of the board are running for re-election with the exception of Jecel, who described his position at the last meeting

- Armed with a FreeBSD vm, Randal is in the process of creating a booking engine application or Insight Cruises and offered to post a link to the website when it’s done
