Rex took the actoin to follow up with the requestor. * Trademark guidelines: Spot is invited to the next board meeting, via telephone, to discuss any trademark guideline questions or concerns. Board members are expected to be familiar with guidelines by time of the meeting. * Agreed that in the future, we will address the Q&A portion of the meeting first, as we run out of time to address community questions or concerns in that portion of the Board meeting. * Additionally, John Rose (inode0) has volunteered to once again serve as election coordinator. Thanks, inode0! :)
