Present:

• 1 need for a second server
  • reasons: (Philipp)
  • costs will be about 950 EUR per year on top of the 270 for 6 more months for our current server
  • according to JY new server should be available in January, Philipp would prefer one now
  • suggestions to solve financial situation:
    • create a new google ads account
    • sponsors
      • to be solved: what can we offer sponsors
      • to be solved: tax deductability
    • private loan (Philipp offered it)
  • compromise? We get a virtual server or such for our tools. Actually, although performance is a good thing for development, we're not in hunger for hyper speed.
  • suggestion: we cancel the idea of a new real server for now BUT collect info about prizes for a virtual server
  • vote on this issue: next week, BoD meeting
  • task force for financial situation

Issues I would like to discuss (see mail to BoD):

• need for a second server
• financing of a second server

Maybe it would be good to have actual figures from the treasures about the donation status. Are there any donations so far which gives us the possibility for a new Server? Fabzgy 00:42, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
