MPE Community Booth has been moved to the front of the show floor, nearer
the other MPE-centric booths. An agenda for the OpenMPE meeting needs to be prepared. It should include a clear definition of our proposed budget, a mission statement and delivery of the financial report. |

B. Foster talked with the accountant and determined the path for money
for the reserve fund. Monies will be received by the accountant and 95%
will be recorded as a note payable and will be refundable if HP does not
grant OpenMPE a license or if OpenMPE does not raise sufficient reserves
to make the project viable. The $5000 donation from HP will not go into
this fund. Instead, it will be used for expenses for this year.
What budget categories are needed? "People time" will probably be the largest budget item. Also need to budget for software and systems. We need more web help especially since the web master is also the treasurer. The treasurer's job load will likely increase due to collecting membership dues. We should perhaps also consider liability insurance for the Board. |
