1. 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

2. 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.

3. 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.

4. Money

       We are short on it!

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

       Pub Quiz.

5. ENTS

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

6. We currently have 15 people on the gophers mailing list.
