There will be a board meeting instead of a weekly on the 6th of May.
Earthunplugged: Dat/Steven said that this is a seperate project and they will no longer represent it as a solution to PTP's list problems.
Discussed membership requirements. Rough first pass says requirements for membership are own node (must have ssid, splash page?, show user agreement, be open) or board exemption or cash, must have sponsor, agree not to sue if they pull a "flickenger". Benefits are port 25 unblocked, pledge drive immunity and maybe more bandwidth.
Discussed mountain access to cooperate with SeattleWireless snownet project. If you know people with access to mountains going north let us know!
Adam has redone the weekly meeting template. Please try and use the new system, he promises that it's better.
