II. Reports

General Manager

Devin reports that nothing's really happened since last week.
The webpage continues to be worked on, and there's a new logo
on the front page.  Contact gm@ocf if any staff is interested
in helping out with the webpage or publicity.  The CSUA has 
some hardware that they can donate to us.  Devin will get 
more concrete details next time.
Ken reports that a DailyCal writer asked for information
about the OCF and that we may soon appear in a DailyCal article.
Regarding the Ultra10 donations, we should know something by
the end of the month.

Site Manager

Kat reports that Luns brought up the new disks on death, and
so quotas were increased accordingly.  New quota allocation
(as approved last week):
     8MB home
     8MB web
    10MB mail

III. Staff Hours

Devin encouraged all staff to hold at least 1 hour of staff
hours to accommodate all the users that may be coming in for
rereg.  Rereg will hopefully start in the next couple weeks.
Tabling on Sproul was extremely successful for us last Wednesday,
(we passed out flyers and got about 40 new user signups from
the table).  Thus, we should continue to do so, at least 1 day 
a week.  Staff who would like to hold staff hours and/or table 
can contact Kat or Ken.  There was also talk about possibly
tabling at other areas, such as Northgate, Wurster, etc.

IV. Budget

We discussed possible ideas for this year's purchases.  We
have about $13,000 available to spend.
High priority items:
    Printers (HP LaserJet?)     $2,500
    New Disks + Boxes (more quota!) $5,000
    Publicity (flyers, t-shirts, etc)   $2,000
    Security (lock-down kits, etc)  $1,000
    Scanner/CDR (we already have these!)    $0
We'd have about $2,500 left.  Purchasing ideas which were 
tossed out:
    PCs/Macs/other cool projects
    neon sign (if/when we get a 24 hour lab space)
    big umbrella (for tabling)
    web-cam(s)
    digital camera(s)

V. Publicity

Ken is looking into the possibility of purchasing a large
vinyl banner, the kind you see hanging from the balcony of
the student union.  Ken also asked for help in making and
distributing flyers.  He mentioned the reshalls and campus
buildings as places to distribute.

VI. Advisor

Kat went to speak with Brian Harvey, who agreed to be our
faculty advisor.

VII. Web-serving policy

Brian Buchanan from the group 2MarsBy2012 requested that the
OCF colocate their server according to our colocation
policy.  He provided written answers to the questions listed
on our policy, and Devin read them aloud.  The Board asked
a few follow-up questions, and then passed his colocation 
request 6-0-0.

The web-serving policy discussion was tabled for the next
BoD meeting.  Due to a scheduling conflict, the next meeting 
will take place on Wednesday (instead of Monday), 
September 22, 1999 at 5pm.  Location TBA.  We will also
decide on the permanent day of the week to meet.

The meeting was closed at 6:15pm.
