 * RussellSenior is nominated for secretary. Gave a video presentation featuring an unmanned rocket blowing up. This is his metaphor for PTP without his leadership.
 * TroyJaqua is not here, but he is nominated for treasurer again.
 * Node updates:
  * NodeRedandBlack has been resurrected. It was a node, but then it was disconnected, but it is now a node again. Much thanks to Brian from FreeGeek. DonPark recommends that weekly meetings be held at broken nodes so that we can fix them while gabbing about Wifi.
 * OSCON is July 26th on
  * We have a table and one full pass that we can pass around between folks who work the table.
  * There are usually many parties with hosted bars if you come to the Exhibit Hall and get invited by the hosts.
  * Exhibit Hall is free (with your e-mail address), conference pass is around $1000.
 * Education Committee. CalebPhillips is assuming the education role. MichaelWeinberg suggests KeeganQuinn for the position, for a more *colorful* education effort. DonPark would like us to have an education document that we can give to node hosts to help them learn and manage their own nodes.
 * MississippiGrantProject updates:
  * RussellSenior needs his ethernet cable back from CalebPhillips.
  * NAYA based Cisco is back online.
  * The Black Rose Collective still has a 1.5M circuit that wants to be tied into the Mississippi Network.
  * We have multiple repeaters running on the street with a new WGT firmware.
  * RussellSenior has still not climbed on the NAYA roof.
   *Incidentally, TroyJaqua has just arrived.
  * BenJenks wants to remove NAT from all the repeaters.
  * MichaelWeinberg defends NAT because the repeaters are essentially CPEs and are serving small networks in homes and businesses.
