5 Informative part

5.1 - Informative - Task #346: Member and contact databases updates

https://tasks.pp-international.net/issues/346

Work is ongeoing to collect and update contacts.

Keith will recieve from Guillaume the current contact database maintained on the swiss CiviCRM

And Keith will match that list with our list of registered member and non-member pirate parties.

I have updated these emails, concatenated the lists on the spreadsheet.

5.2 - Informative - Task #350: IT - Servers relocations and consolidation

new server is almost finished to be set up, Thomas has access since yesterday

Fees are 27 euros a month for full service. Set up fees is 100 euros.

Mail server/mailing lists = 3*27€+100€, 181 euros for 2016 and 324 euros for 2017

Wordpress hub / wiki / redmine / other apps = 100€ +12*27€ for 2017, 424 euros

Per environment (mail // web) the annual operating cost is 748 euros/year

Consideration of the volunteer hours of Guillaume, Thomas, and others, which saved PPI a considerable amount of expense.

Thomas will provide the service management contract for documentation and archival purposes.

Done

-meeting on Tuesday with new provider

5.3 - Informative - Task #354: Access Inventory

https://tasks.pp-international.net/issues/354

Thomas Gaul started a list with those people who actually have access to certain

services from PPI. In the end, the list should include all services!

A follow-up is required.

This should include even the tech stuff.

Please help out!

<https://ppi.piratenpad.de/Standinglist-Access-to-Services>

Nothing new. The information from secret will have to be added. Ongoing.

5.4 - Informative - Task #355: Inventory of PPI members and pirates parties

Keith is working on a list and will send new spreadsheet.

https://tasks.pp-international.net/issues/355

Internal deadline for sending out the invoices to our member: 15. November 2016, provided the information have been gathered.
=== 5.5 - Informative - Task #356: Implementation of the Bitcoin payment system ===

https://tasks.pp-international.net/issues/356

  • I've had good experiences using kraken.com and bitstamp.net, looked into quite a few exchanges

In the process of setting up the kraken account. Waiting on a function mail "treasurer@pp-international.net", this should be made available as the mail platform is migrated away from Google.

Paypal account issues, Keith is locked out of the account again. Koen's email is set for the password reset, but Andrew originally provided Keith with access. Ray will contact Koen to check on it.

5.6 - Informative - Task #357: Minimal budget development for 2016

https://tasks.pp-international.net/issues/357

  • Identify the costs and incomes.
  • No new info about server costs
  • Paypal funds will be transferred to new PPI bank account

A draft provisional budget is now available here.https://docs.google.com/a/pp-international.net/spreadsheets/d/1eT8dQMDKrgpC21DTWr_15Qgw3mPcGEpINwbwuueEgLI/edit?usp=sharing

  • Please also look into:

http://wiki.pp-international.net/Finances

http://wiki.pp-international.net/Finances_PPI_Headquarters

-Should we go with numbers on the current spreadsheet to invoice PPI members? This is helpful for certain members who want to have their budget developed before Christmas.
