Please Note The Board typically approves the minutes of the previous meeting at the beginning of every Board meeting; therefore, the list below does not normally contain details from the minutes of the most recent Board meeting. ASF Members may have access to a private draft of these still-unapproved minutes.

WARNING: these pages may omit some original contents of the minutes.
This is due to changes in the layout of the source minutes over the years. Fixes are being worked on.

 We have discussed whether the board has formally set aside the funds
 associated with the Pineapple donation. No restrictions were
 attached to that money when donated.

 We also discussed whether we have (or need) a common expectation
 regarding the size of our operating reserve, with respect to other
 non-profit organizations, and how that could feed into future
 budget discussions.

 There is board consensus that the funds will be recognized as a
 one-time donation.
