=-> Hi There,
=->
=->
=-> I would like to call a meeting on 11 May, 2003:
=->
=-> Date: Sunday, 11 May 2003
=-> Tine: 1330 SHARP
=-> Venue: 131 St Bernards Road
=-> Rostrevor SA 5069
=-> Contact:0402 440993
=-> Bring: Food, Drinks, chair
=->
=-> I'll find a BBQ and have it going at 1200 noon for those who'd like to
=-> have a bite to eat first.
=->
=-> The agenda will be:
=->
=-> 1. Welcome
=-> 2. State of the Nation
=-> 3. Proposed dual incorporation
=->
=-> The proposed dual incorporation is with ComputerBank South Australia to
=-> form a group which _might_ be called something like "Community Software
=-> and Hardware Bank Inc" or "CSHB Inc".
=->
=-> ComputerBank's goals are to:
=->
=-> 1. Promote the ownership of computer and IT equipment in the community
=-> 2. Recycle computers and other IT equipment to ensure that the least
=-> amount goes to recyclers or worse landfill
=->
=-> ComputerBank only instals open source software and their role is very
=-> similar to the CSDN's excepting that they deal with hardware and not
=-> software.
=->
=-> Their current homepages are:
=->
=-> * http://www.computerbank.org.au/
=-> * http://sa.computerbank.org.au/
=->
=-> Benefits of this merger include:
=->
=-> 1. Increased ability to promote both groups
=-> 2. Increased ability to provide a wide variety of volunteer tasks
=-> 3. Decreased administrative overhead for both groups
=-> 4. Increased ability to provide open source advocacy in the SA
=-> community
=->
=-> ...whilst at the same time not detracting from the CSDN-SA's aims and
=-> objectives.
=->
=-> There is likely to be a joint meeting of ComputerBank SA and CSDN-SA at
=-> the end of May to make this formal.
=->
=-> IT IS IMPORTANT YOU HAVE A SAY IN THIS - if you're not able to make it
=-> but would like something said about it, please say it here or to:
=->
=-> * lloy0076@xxxxxxxxxxx (i.e. this address)
=-> * rmanning@xxxxxxxxxxx (Robyn Manning)
=-> * bastill@xxxxxxxxxxx (Brian Astill)
=-> * ilox@xxxxxxxxxxxxx (Ian Loxton)
=->
=-> ...so we can make sure your point of view doesn't go unnoticed.
=->
=->
=-> David Lloyd
=-> (CSDN-SA Organiser)
