Action Done: ============ Actions: ======== ACTION: Tim to get the membership logos on the foundation page => in progress, Dan is helping ACTION: Tim, John and Havoc to get a draft statement on the relation with the free software and license policy. => in progress ACTION: Tim to work on the Trademark registration for "GNOME" and the foot. => we have completed the Trademark search, only low/moderate risks were detected so we can move forward on the next steps New Actions: ============ ACTION: Tim to organize a confcall with the Guadec 3 organizers in Spain Dan and Havoc will join the call ACTION: Jim to restart the font discussions with IBM Discussion: =========== - approve last meeting minutes: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/foundation-announce/2001-November/msg00036.html - Guadec 3: Looking from last year practice, it's a huge amount of work to organize, we started 2 month in advance last year and it was too late We need a firm date and facility, we are getting sponsors interested but we need an hard deadline to move forward. We need to ask more directly possible speakers whether they intend to give a speach, and who expects to talk. Madrid or Sevilla are two candidate places. - Font searches: Not much progress during Jim's surgery, but Jim will restart work on it. - Update on incorporation The work is carried on by the lawyers. - Update on GNOME 2 Seems to make progresses with the new releases of Gtk2 and gnome-libs.
