A. 6:25 - Approved agenda

B. 1) 	a) DISCUSSION OF IPC COMMITTEE MEMBERSHIP
	€ John Chiles <jschiles@dcn.davis.ca.us> was welcomed to IPC 
	   membership.
	€ Chair was informed that member Movius no longer lives in the area.
	€ Agreed to consider committee membership lapsed if a member misses 
	  six meetings but to welcome those ex-members back as soon as they 
	   are able to start attending regularly.	
	€ Agreed that Chair would invite leaders of recent and current IPC 
	   projects to join the committee
	b) DISCUSSION OF COMMITTEE MEETING TIME.
	€ Agreed to meet from 6:30 - 7:30pm but to schedule additional time 
	  if necessary - for example when several project applications need to 
	  be reviewed.

B. 2) 	NEW PROJECTS / NONPROFIT ACCTS / OTHER
	€ Approved Yolo Hospice Nonprofit Account
	€ Reviewed and edited the handout-page describing IPC Projects, 
	  and Nonprofit Account, guidelines and procedures
	€ Agreed to maintain a list nonprofit accounts with dates and 
	  history (derived from an IPC project or not etc.) This would assist 
	  in timing of the annual review to be done by the IPC.

B. 3) a)  REVIEWED RECENT AND CURRENT PROJECTS 
	   and agreed to the following:
	€ Retain Birch Lane on the list until DJUSD MOU is signed
	€ Amnesty International project has ended. It will be added to 
	  the Nonprofit shell account list if it adopts this option
	€ Return the Printed Matter project to the DCN Executive Director 
	  where it originated.
	€ Brownie Troop 1540 has ended. Check to see if it has relocated 
	   onto the DCN web.
	€ Leave the Dixon Weaver project on the list - expecting a renewal 
	  request for a second six months
	€ Tsnungwe project has ended. It will be added to the Nonprofit 
	  shell account list if it adopts this option.
	€ Revisit the Yolo Link status as an IPC project since it does no 
	  longer fits our guidelines

B.  3) b) DISCUSSED FUTURE DIRECTIONS that IPC needs to 
	  become actively involved in - in helping DCN and its web to evolve.
	  Decided to propose a meeting (annual or semi-annual) of the IPC, 
	  the Web Team and the Executive Director with the suggested agenda 
	  topic:
	"CURRENT AND COMING DIRECTIONS AND PROJECTS - 
	  DCN'S NEXT GENERATION AND THE IMPACTS ON THE 
	  IPC AND THE WEB TEAM."


C. 1)  We determined that we had probably not been very effective in 
	recruiting a control group of three volunteer-based non-profits 
	as to serve as controls for the CPB project evaluation. However, 
	the recent CHOC, Redbud Montessori, and Tree Davis projects 
	might qualify.

C. 2)  Chair commented on DCN Board interests and concerns

C. 3)  Chair reported that the tasks ascribed to the IPC's defunct (AdHoc) 
	Committee on Content Policy have now been accepted by the DCN 
	Board as a Board responsibility

D.  Adjourned at 7:30pm
