| |
| − | ## Vice Chair: We've run out of WPLUG brochures, so none could be delivered to Judi G., who volunteered to distribute them at an upcomming Sci-fi conference. Vance will research printing cost (such as the difference between full-color printing and spot-color printing) in order to get more fliers printed. Bill is to update the WPLUG wiki configuration so that .sla files can be uploaded. As Vice-chair (and the "voice of WPLUG") Vance will keep a private store of business cards and other marketing material for use as needed.

| − | ## Treasurer's report: Cash amount hasn't changed. We have $467.89 in the bank account. A deposit of $45.99 from PayPal means that the PayPal account can now be closed.

| |
| − | ## Program Committee: Tuesday, Feb 20th at 7:00 PM, WPLUG will host a site visit with Team One systems to see their High-availability technology. Team One will be providing food at the event.

There is an effort to engage in a joint TiE/WPLUG happy hour event. The WPLUG survey has been posted to the Wiki for comment. Vance and Patrick will research givaways to be used to encourage survey-takers. Patrick volunteered his installation of phpsurveyor for delivery. The study group has quited since Greg S. left the area. WPLUG is still supporting the group via the Wiki, but not promoting it.
