			For the Ham Radio club, we have started our YouTube video series on amateur radio topics. We are planning our participation in the DC MS walk this month. We have guest speakers at our club meeting. Our repeater is up and functional as well, and our remote access to our radio station is working out well.

Secretary's Report: last minute adding my report -tom

	=== Secretary's Report ===		=== Secretary's Report ===

			Hi, I'm back from India. I announced the outgoing pile two weeks ago and it's there for perusal tonight if anyone wants to have a look at it before we send it off.

			There are some outstanding issues about our standing rules that need to be addressed; I don't see a recorded vote on Article V (Materiel); and there have been a couple of votes to redefine quorum in the standing rules, but quorum is defined in the bylaws. Article IV (regarding meetings) is also lacking recorded votes for several sections. We can vote on approval of the rules as written unless people want time to read them and come with any suggestions.

			Nobody wrote me any comments on my changes to the document, so I'm not sure if everybody thought it was fine or if nobody read it or some read it and had no issues, while others did not read it.

			Looking over the Wiki it often appears out of date; I'd like to bring it up to date and others are welcome to put their effort into doing that as well, especially if they're familiar with the out of date projects and can provide some historical context for the wiki.

			That's all I've had the time to address this month.

	~~Expecting to have the~~ funds to personally buy and donate one array of four 6TB WD Green WD60EZRX disks. WD Green disks have unusually high wear/lifecycle ratings when 'intellipark' frequency is reduced. Each such array can provide >10TB RAID6 storage and >1TB SSD-like RAID0 storage, upgradeable to include >20TB RAID6. Planning to use this to provide exceptionally robust on-site Shell/VPS/NAS services, available at least to members ~~and~~ for purposes relevant to the space (eg. backup). A thorough explanation as to why this deployment is needed and appropriate would be rather long to include here. Please consult with senior members of the admin team for technical details, justifications, and commentary.		Have funds to personally buy and donate one array of four 6TB WD Green WD60EZRX disks.
