3. Approving minutes from previous meetings
Vote to approve the minutes of the October 14 meeting minutes:
Bruce : in favour
Drew : in favour
Ean : in favour
Ian : in favour
Mako : in favour
Wichert: in favour
The minutes are accepted with six votes in favour and none against.
4. Debian trademark Brazil
As a result of the work of the trademark committee Mako proposed resolutions
2003-11-11.bmh.1, which regulates the registration of Debian trademarks in
Brazil, and 2003-11-11.bmh.2, which regulates actions to gain control over
the debian.com.br domain.
As Wichert had already remarked in email there is no acknowledgement from
the Debian Project Leader. Ian proposed to amend 2003-11-11.bmh.1 to add
a clause to require DPL approval and add a spending limit. Nobody objected
to this amendment and a vote is called for:
Bruce : in favour
Drew : in favour
Ean : in favour
Ian : in favour
Mako : in favour
Wichert: in favour
Jimmy Kaplowitz noted that the resolution calls for trademarking the official
logo which is only used rarely and not well known. Wichert added he would
like to change that since trademarking the rarely used official logo is
in his opinion not very useful and proposed to amend the resolution to
allow the DPL to choose the logo to be trademarked. Nobody objects to the
amendment.
Drew was concerned that the proposed resolution 2003-11-11.bmh.1 was unclear
about possible expenses and could authorise a civil suite for which SPI
would be billed. Ian proposed an amendment that adds a clause that restricts
the possible expenses to $100 subject to approval of the Debian Project Leader.
Nobody objects to the amendment and a vote is called:
Bruce : in favour
Drew : in favour
Ean : in favour
Ian : in favour
Joey : in favour
Mako : in favour
Wichert : in favour
The resolution is accepted with seven votes in favour and none against.
5. Date for next meeting
The date for the next meeting is set at December 2, 19:00 UTC.
