Vote result and/or next steps agreed upon

Point 2: Treasurer's Report

(Masoud, 10 min)

  • status of member abonnements and old debts (i.e Nebuleuse, SwissMotionTech, LemanMake)

None have yet been sent... We will do this tonight! We decided also, to let go the workshop fees from LemanMake, as they did not make as much as they hoped - (about 250chf was due for the foldscope workshops, but whatever...)

  • old debts and requirement for invoices for cotisations in general.

we need to decide about reminders and payments or lack of payments!


    • status for facturation system??

Rachel will ask Raffael which we use for Space Alliance. (? can we piggy back on that??)

  • if just one big invoice per year, maybe not soo bad?


Proposal for decision and/or help needed

  • will decide between 3 systems, cogitos, odoo, or raffael's pref.

Vote result and/or next steps agreed upon

  • Masoud has our confidence to get it together, after RA finds out from Raffael ours for coop


(before next meeting, we hope all is set)

Point 3: Events ahead

Rapport de Joël sur communication avec USL (Anne-Claude Stüder), bibliotech (Isabelle Hirschi) - potentiellement super! Is trying also for the guy (M Nicod) about the Semaine de la Santé (end of october)
Need to point lab warming info towards newsletter, not website!

     Planning for the evening: 
project demos: living instruments, foldscopes?
easy gallium modelling? Maurice chemistry demos (tornado and?) .
how to organise, to have sign ups or wandering people
(10min each demo and moving around)?? (official notice!?)

Point 4: Fund Raising

  • grant apps
  • T-shirts/Totebags (only a few of each left, as 3t-shirt and one tote were sold last Saturday, during the OpenFoodRepo DNA event)
  • ateliers à choix
  • other? services?? activities for groups???

Who is ready to commit to help and write? (for instance, for funding for the 5 year party, 5oct19, so we have a budget to invite biohackers to run ateliers!) Luc suggests Stiftung Mercateur...


Point 5: Unfinished business

Things that will be taken care of before/after the meeting... Aka the things we just need updates on, i.e. if it has been (self-)assigned to someone, documented here, and a deadline set up and shared if needed.

The PV for the General Assembly with new Board Members...
The question of whether our Association can be considered to have 'utility public'
The Urban Garden project with Pea Plant Symbiosis - wiki pages need updates
The Bioluminescence project - wiki page in progress

Other Business

  • Wiki account spamming problem!

Masoud has seen hundreds of new accounts! Rachel asked Yann to look into it. Any controls possible??

  • OpenHackuarium Events - with 5 years approaching, and the big break with the move, should we drop the numbers officially?

Vote yes, forget the numbers! (à la unanimité!) on va arriver à 5ans!

  • Wiki Hackathon!! when??

Vote all agree, try for last weds of each month. 29mai et 26juin

  • Récurrence prochains Board Meetings - d'ordinaire le 2e mercredi de chaque mois - excepte pour la réunion prochaine, le 5 juin, 18h30-19h30, pour préparer pour la pendaison de crémaillère le 12 juin.
