Apologies

EGM

• Sys Admin test has been made up by JP, will be carried out later today. Candidates so far appear to be - WHC, Bobb, and Cthulhu

• Motion for graduate membership. We will support it, so long as CSD are okay with it.

• Splitting of PRO and Ents to be discussed.

• QG13 - 6pm

Hardware Problems

• Old Motherboard MAY not be able to take MMX chips. Old style pentiums are probably not available any more. John Will check later today.

• We have 60 Gig(!) in SCSI hard drives, as donated by Peter Mc Gorman sitting up beside the monolith, which we can use. Problem is space, and noise, and we need a SCSI card for them.

• 486's - we seem to have no use for them (no monitors) find some way to give them away (raffle?)

• Admin Training - JP will look into is as soon as Nurse is back online.

Jhammer incident

Not a big deal, barry was in the right in helping him fix his account. Unless we hear any more about it, the matter should be dropped. JP sent a mail to him explaining the situation.

Money

• We are short on it!

• Sponsorship - we should seek it from a recruitment firm Books Unlimited? (john barker).

• Pub Quiz.

ENTS

Intersocs coming up - perhaps "beach party" theme??

We currently have 15 people on the gophers mailing list.
