'''Notes'''
 * Meeting began with a discussion to ChadRamberg about opportunities for funding through Thrivent, either through a grant or through directed contributions from in-surance customers.
 * Russell reported on offer from fellow for two SkyGateways, one immediately, another in a month.
 * Russell reported on a contact from fellow from East Portland, looking for ways of spending parts of a $50k grant from the City
 * Russell reported on efforts to fix problems in current OpenWrt, namely remote syslogging and serial consoles, and how this is throwing a monkey wrench into plans to move a router at the Mississippi Ballroom building.
 * Russell reports on conversations from OSCON, including some ideas from BartMassey from PSU.  Namely:
  * Suggestions that PSU could house one of our servers;
  * Suggestions that access to roofs might be possible as a relay point;
  * Suggestions to expand our board of directors with more diverse people, with more diverse connections (this has been discussed before at previous board meetings), possibilities discussed tonight:
   * MaryDeatherage
   * MaryBethHenry (not sure she'd be willing, maybe conflicts of interest?)
   * others?
   We'd want to add two people at once.
 * Russell reported that he's planning to go to Berlin for IS4CWN 2013, in early October, wants to get moving on Arbor Lodge organizing:
  * Contact two respondants
  * Schedule a meeting time
  * Flyer the neighborhood, whatever other publicity we can swing, including notice on the splash page
 * After SteveTree arrives, and actually, right before MarinoDuregon left, we held a quick voice vote on the open BoardOfDirectors position, re-electing KeeganQuinn unanimously.
