It was proposed that Electronic Voting take place for the next AGM, voting to take place 1 week prior to the AGM.

John Looney talked about misdemeanours, harrassment of users on the system by other users who think they are "anonymous". There should be a publically accessible list, containing usernames and their corresponding real names. Admins can disuser people on their own merit.

The incident involving Ka Chun was discussed briefly. Patrick Grant proposed that there be a new method formalised to deal with complaints.

Trying to get chat back ->  Carry out a survey detailing computer usage on campus, and present it to computer services, to try and come to some arrangement on getting the chat server back online.

Dave Madden suggested some sort of "tribunal" system for dealing with complaints.

It was proposed that we adopt a system used by DBES, in which old committee members become consultants to the new committee. (it was pointed out that such a system already exists, however informal)

New Res -> "Resbrick" - talk to Computer Services and find out what infrastructure currently exists in new res to acomodate a computer network, and what plans exist for it's use.
