Notes

The meeting voice transcription is available on the talk page.

1. Code of Conduct
   • Cindy Brief update on Code of Conduct progress
2. MWStake Bylaw requirements (Charter & Annual Meeting)
   • Bryan From our articles of incorporation (what we used to become a non-profit), our stated purpose is:
     • "To contribute to the development of MediaWiki by fostering communication and coordination of MediaWiki developers, operators, and users, and other MediaWiki improvement efforts."
   • A charter does the following:
     1. Identifies the purpose of the organization (see articles of incorporation above)
     2. Identifies the board of directors of the organization
     3. Identifies the the business location
   • Markus We should remove those parts above (& Mission/Vision/Goals) from the bylaws and add them to a new page called Charter
     • Also create a redirect from "Articles of Incorporation" to "Charter"
   • Markus I propose the following for the Annual meeting:
     • Have an Annual meeting in March
     • Current Board is "transitionary"
     • This year is the transitional year
     • Moving forward, next year we can begin normal voting for Board Members
3. Membership & Corporate sponsorship
   • Eric-Jan We have the plan in place, just need CC processing and we can begin
   • Mark The CC should be working, we just need some test cases to make sure
   • Bernhard Is it possible to donate?
     • Mark It's possible technically, we just need to implement it
   • Bryan Can we start showing the list of members & corporate sponsors on MWStake.org?
     • Mark Maybe manual at first, but automate it in the future
     • Bryan If I can get a list, I can create the page now
