Meeting agenda

The meeting voice transcription is available on the talk page.

Sales Deck Presentation - Sales deck
- (Eric-Jan) Presented the Deck
- (Bryan) The goal of the deck is to have it used in conjunction with one of us reaching out to a potential sponsor, not a stand-alone "mailer"
- (Lex) Wikipedia has ideological goal, a path that people can connect to, so donating to Wikipedia aligns with that. What is our ideological goal? Passion?
- (Lex) With regards to my clients, the goal should be tied to something more practical.
- (James) I'd like to bring this to my management to get this group off the ground, this group represents our use case. Giving us money will help with the "Chicken-and-Egg" problem. You can be a sponsor & "Founding Member" to get some good name recognition for the sponsoring company.
- (Cindy) "Your Wiki - Our Passion" gives me the impression we are contractors, i.e. we will take your money and give you support. We aren't contractors, we are a community, support sounds commercial, passion should like "let's hold hands and sing Kumbaya"
Next meeting
- A vote was called to have another meeting in 2 weeks (June 19th, 1.5 hours earlier than normal)
  - Vote was unanimously approved
- ACTION ITEM Schedule meeting
Membership Guaranteed Projects - Bylaws/Dues
- (Lex) I would like to use MWStake to provide a security review for pay (my Gold/Platinum membership)
- (Lex) I reached out to Brian Wolff, but he now works for Asana
- (Cindy) Sam Wilson might be a good fit
