[H-ADMIN] VP Report

[matheist76 at westnet.com.au]

Sorry about the lateness of this report. To be honest I thought I had sent 
this on Saturday as this is the revised version of the report I sent on Friday. 

Matt.

== Vice President's Report == 
Since the last exec meeting I was asked by the President if I would be 
willing to give a membership report. I accepted. So this has now become 
a part of my report. 

=== Meetings === 
So far this AGM our meeting have had on average about 15 people 
attending. Apart from the one time I showed up 15min late these have 
started on time and have gone on till midnight. So far we have not had 
any major troubles or problems. The network connection in Prentice room 
212 has been resolved. 

=== Meetings Roosters=== 
I have tried since the last Exec meeting to get volunteers to help out 
with opening and closing the meeting. So far I have non but I feel that 
this is due mostly to a lack of effort on my part rather than a lack of 
willingness of members. Stephen Thomas did offer to send me the 
volunteers from last year but as I already had them and I wanted to 
start afresh so I said no. 

=== Room Bookings === 
As instructed by the UQ's room bookings department I resubmitted a 
request for room bookings next year (they had asked me to get back to 
them in November). So far no response. If I do not hear back from then 
by early next week I'll chase them up. 

=== Membership Numbers === 
We have currently 31 members of which 7 are new members. Since the last 
exec meeting there 7 people have joined up of which 4 have been new 
members. 

=== Contacts === 
I was contacted by two people in regards to Humbug. 

The first was from a couple that attended Humbug. They asked what I 
felt about how Humbug could become more Ubuntu centric. I informed them 
that while Humbug as a group was OS agnostic there was nothing to prevent 
them from giving Ubuntu talks and setting up a Ubuntu special interest 
group. So far I've had no response back from them. 

The 2nd was in regards to a possible attendence. I gave details of the 
meeting and what we do.
