[12:43] <@mildbeard> Well, I accidentally missed the PNC last night because my calendar reminder expired at the end of 2012!!! [12:43] <@mildbeard> But they were going to vote on Oklahoma's probationary status. [12:44] <@mildbeard> There's a requirement for all states to ratify the PNC constitution by this sunday. [12:44] <@mildbeard> Massachusetts was the first to ratify. [12:44] <@mildbeard> I really don't have anything else to report, sorry. [12:44] <@jokeefe> who hasn't ratified it? [12:44] <@mildbeard> I heard that NY, WI and OR had ratified. I'm not aware of anyone else. [12:45] <@mildbeard> California had objections and has conspicuously not ratified it yet. Last I had heard. [12:45] <@mildbeard> CA proposed an amendment to the constitution and then never showed up to vote on it. [12:47] <@jokeefe> k [12:47] <@jokeefe> what was the amendment? [12:48] <@jokeefe> thanks, srevilak ! [12:48] <+black_van> any update on liquid feedback [12:49] <@mildbeard> the amendment was to basically have social programs that benefit the most vulnerable people in society. [12:49] <@mildbeard> I think it would have passed if they had showed up to promote it. [12:49] <@jokeefe> <hangs head> no besides we need to move it elsewhere, mildbeard hasn't been able to get help to fix the issues. [12:50] <@mildbeard> yeah they haven't responded. [12:50] <@mildbeard> I'm still working on an alternative and making progress, but it will take a couple months. [12:50] <@jokeefe> lets put liquidfeedback on the agenda for sunday as well as web hosting. [12:51] <@jokeefe> thanks, mildbeard [12:51] <@mildbeard> k [12:51] <@jokeefe> anything else for Sunday's agenda? [12:51] <@mildbeard> do we have a lot of survey results to go over? [12:54] <@jokeefe> no [12:54] <@mildbeard> hmm. [12:56] <@jokeefe> more than ten, but not statistically significant [12:58] <@mildbeard> well that's not so bad. [12:58] <@mildbeard> We should get some kind of web survey up. [12:58] <@mildbeard> Maybe a thing to discuss. [12:58] <@jokeefe> i think that goes with the web site. reluctant to go the cloudservice route [13:01] <@mildbeard> ok I see. [13:03] <@jokeefe> anything else folks want to discuss?
