1.  Call to order at 6:32 PM

2.  Approved Agenda with addition of item 3e) on motion by John 
Chiles, seconded by Rajiv Seth.

3.  Review of Project Applications:

    a) Held over from May
We discussed the application from Nancy McWilliams on behalf of 
Boy Scout Troop 466 requesting a shell account.  We approved by 
consensus 1 Simple Site instead of a shell.

    b) We approved by consensus the application from Michelle 
Reardon on behalf of 'Israel Matters' of Congregation Bet Haverim of 
Davis [moved by John Chiles, seconded by Alan Bodenhorn] as 
follows:
	1 Simple Site
	2 Mailman Lists
	An Organization Web Calendar
	Calendar Training?

    c) Could not consider the application from Everett Schwartz on 
behalf of DHS Madrigal Choir for
	1 Simple site,
	Web Team help/training
 because the applicant did not appear.

    d) We ratified an email-vote approval of a request from Sarah 
Boone & Michelle Reardon on behalf of DHS Symphony Orchestra 
Boosters for a
	short term (3 months) email account

    e) We discussed with Bob Milbrodt an application from Dan 
Berman on behalf of the Coalition for Local Power. The request 
originally asked for
	4 dialup accounts
	1 nonprofit dialup account
	Training in HTML, PHP, MySQL and help to create a website
	using an open source content management system (CMS).
It transpired that the group probably only needed a shell and (in 
conversation at the end of the meeting with Dan) a Mailman List.

Richard Lowenberg will have a conversation with the applicants Dan 
and Bob and clarify their needs so that they can submit the RAC 
application form.

4. Discussion
         a)	We discussed adjusting the online application form to 
deal with requests from minor (underage) applicants. An additional 
field will be added:
  Are you an adult aged 18 or older?

Adjourned at 7:25PM

Next meeting: Wednesday September 1, 2004
