Meeting Minutes[edit]

The regular meeting of the Western Pennsylvania Linux Users Group was held on Saturday, September 12, 2015 at 3:24 PM at HackPittsburgh. In the absence of the regular presiding officer, the Vice-Chair presided at the meeting. The regular secretary was present. The minutes of the June 27, 2015 meeting were approved as corrected.

The Vice-Chair reported that HackPittsburgh is making progress on its robotics project and that his presentation for today's meeting is available on Github.

The Secretary reported that WPLUG currently has 17 members.

The Treasurer reported that there is $353.58 in the checking account with $17.91 in receipts via Eventbrite for the picnic and $20.00 in dues to be deposited. Recent expenditures were $5.00 to Linode for hosting expenses, $9.00 to Comodo to renew the SSL certificate, and $102.00 to the U.S. Postal Service to renew the post office box. He stated that he will not be available to attend the upcoming Board of Directors meeting on September 17.

The Technology Committee reported that there has not been progress on the membership portal. The new SSL certificate was installed on the server, as were standard software updates.

The Events Committee reported that the Pittsburgh Maker Faire is on October 10, conflicting with the WPLUG General User Meeting, and that John Lewis will not be available on this date.
