+May 15 15:05:48 <dabbott>	I don't see anything else
+May 15 15:06:01 <dabbott>	on the tracker that needs attention
+May 15 15:06:01 <robbat2>	i need to check on the trademark submission
+May 15 15:06:12 <robbat2>	i did submit it, but didn't get any confirmation yet
+May 15 15:06:27 <robbat2>	dabbott: did you get any confirmation from the IRS re tax extension
+May 15 15:06:38 <dabbott>	no nothing
+May 15 15:07:16 <dabbott>	we may never have filed before and may not be in the system, not sure
+May 15 15:07:38 <robbat2>	if we've never filed taxes before, that's a major problem
+May 15 15:07:46 <robbat2>	or did you mean the ext?
+May 15 15:07:58 <dabbott>	the taxes
+May 15 15:08:31 <NeddySeagoon>	Me raise a hand and asks the chairmans permission to join
+May 15 15:08:48 <dabbott>	yessir howdy
+May 15 15:08:55 <SwifT>	just close the door after you :P
+May 15 15:09:54 <robbat2>	that covers activity tracker
+May 15 15:10:10 <NeddySeagoon>	heh
+May 15 15:10:16 <dabbott>	CPA | Accountant Search
+May 15 15:10:23 <robbat2>	CPA/accountant search next, a front on which I have no good news
+May 15 15:10:34 <robbat2>	the firm that had said I should come back in may
+May 15 15:10:45 <robbat2>	has decided that they don't want to do 501c6 stuff anymore
+May 15 15:10:51 <robbat2>	so i'm back to the searching
+May 15 15:11:19 <robbat2>	i fear that we may end up needing to use a CPA in the US vs one near me
+May 15 15:11:49 <robbat2>	i'm going to phone quatumsummers this afternoon and try to get the contact details for his CPA (again)
+May 15 15:12:28 <dabbott>	I know a retired man that said he was worked for non profits before I can ask how much later
+May 15 15:12:30 <NeddySeagoon>	That has to be worth a try
+May 15 15:12:47 <dabbott>	he is an accountant
+May 15 15:12:50 <NeddySeagoon>	both opportunities
+May 15 15:12:52 <robbat2>	dabbott: yes please
+May 15 15:13:21 <dabbott>	ok I will see him again next weekend
+May 15 15:14:16 <dabbott>	Any news on the banking
+May 15 15:14:37 <robbat2>	no, i didn't do that letter yet
+May 15 15:14:41 <robbat2>	sorry
+May 15 15:14:42 <dabbott>	ok
+May 15 15:15:14 <dabbott>	ok moving on any more on the money stuff
+May 15 15:15:29 <robbat2>	one semi-related thing
+May 15 15:15:33 <NeddySeagoon>	robbat2: doen the bank have a form?
+May 15 15:15:52 <robbat2>	NeddySeagoon: that i've seen
+May 15 15:15:56 <robbat2>	*not that
+May 15 15:16:13 <robbat2>	the semi-related thing; infra is specing out a server in wake of dipper's failure
+May 15 15:16:32 <robbat2>	we will submit it for budget review early in the week
+May 15 15:16:46 <robbat2>	but probably going to be a pricey box to kill a few birds with minimal stones
+May 15 15:16:47 <NeddySeagoon>	OK.  It might save some toing and froing, if we miss some info out of the letter
+May 15 15:17:14 <robbat2>	i'll maybe try to find a human that I can ask about a form
+May 15 15:17:38 <NeddySeagoon>	IS dipper ours?
+May 15 15:17:42 <robbat2>	yes
+May 15 15:17:59 <NeddySeagoon>	and not worth fixing?
+May 15 15:18:50 <NeddySeagoon>	We need to keep it within whatever we have in Paypal ...
+May 15 15:19:07 <robbat2>	actually, the debit card can withdrawl from the bank account as well
+May 15 15:19:18 <dabbott>	nice :)
+May 15 15:19:23 <NeddySeagoon>	Ah ... that worxs then

+May 15 15:21:17 <NeddySeagoon>	(
+May 15 15:21:42 <dabbott>	ok SwifT trademark ?
+May 15 15:21:44 <robbat2>	re 'worth fixing', it's uncertain if it's the CPU or motherboard that failed, possibly both; it was purchased november 2011
+May 15 15:21:56 <SwifT>	I did not receive any blocking remarks on the draft; I'm going to draft up a patch to update the trademark info we havce on the site soon
+May 15 15:22:08 <robbat2>	not our oldest server by a long way, but still possibly $1k+ to fix
+May 15 15:22:10 <SwifT>	with some luck, it'll be done by the end of nexgt week
+May 15 15:22:23 <dabbott>	good work SwifT , thanks
+May 15 15:22:30 <NeddySeagoon>	robbat2: 5 year old ... probably not worth the investment
