_3. Irregular Business_  
. Community Survey  
. 134 Responses  
i. Cameo has offered to put together some reports (one for committee, one for public)  
Pat: Closed survey at the end of last month. We received 134 responses. Cameo has put her hand up to build our some reports on the responses.  
Cameo: Yep, it’s really interesting. I had a quick look. Haven’t had a chance to go through and figure out what we can get from it yet.

_a. Online General Meetings_  
. How do we run them? What platform should we use? Who can do the research and provide some suggestions? Logistics of talking and voting.  
Pat: Online general meetings, lets research best ways of doing that. Slack video?  
Caroline: – I’m happy to look into it

_b. Membership Management_  
. Update the website’s membership management.  
Pat: We do not have a clear list of members. We should from a legal perspective. We need to get a clear ability for people to join on the website aka (“not just signup to the website, but sign up to be a member”). Email out to everyone who has been to an event in the last few years, and say “if you want to be a member, click this link”  
Kieran: Could we do it in slack?  
Matt: We need to know how to get in touch with people for constitution change etc  
Pat: I feel like we should get this sorted in the next few months, membership stuff in the next month or so.  
Pat: if anyone wants to jump on this, put your hand up. I’m also happy to give it a stab and Ill run some of the web stuff past you, Matt. If anyone else wants to keep track, just watch the repo.

_i. Clarify everyone’s membership status, as based on previous event attendance lists._  
c. Meetup accounts (KA)  
Kieran: I saw this as a Trello task in our project board and wanted to talk about it.  
Pat: Yep. We could set up an admin account and name it Ruby Australia and have it join up all the meetups. We don’t want to step on anyone’s toes.  
Kieran: I can run with this.
