Auditors’ Report and Discharge of Liability
amdj and kline presented the auditors’ report.
Both agreed that they’d not seen any behaviour they consider malicious, but did point out that several 2023 MGM minutes were late, though they did not consider this to have been done maliciously and have worked with the board to put a plan of action in place.
They recommended the meeting to grant the board discharge of liability for the past fiscal year.
Annual Board Elections
Like last year, prior to the MGM, the organisation ran a month-long poll of the entire organisation to allow all members to make a recommendation on how the meeting should vote in the election of the chair, treasurer, and auditors.
The vice chair was elected during the meeting by nominating candidates, casting yes/no/abstain votes for each of them, and then selecting the candidate with the largest proportion of “yes” votes.

Other Questions
MGM minutes deadlines
Continuing discussion the auditors raised to the board potential solutions for the late MGM minutes both internally and externally were discussed. The main takeaway was to trial the position of general secretary for 6 months, as a non-board position, with the main responsibility of ensuring the minutes timelines are met whilst not necessarily always being the meeting secretary. If the position turns out well the meeting recommended codifying it into the bylaws after the trial period.
Plans for April fool’s
The meeting decided to work on trying to realise these ideas:
- Change our logo for the day to a cat-ified version, catering to the french.
- Make a clone of our website using the libera.cat domain, with the cat-ified logo and all words replaced with “meows”.
- Load the atheme module CatServ for the day.
- Enable our upcoming auto-cloaking feature but with the
meow/prefix rather thanuser/for the day, and then launch it properly on April 2.
Disabling hide_tkdline_duration
Discussion on whether or not to disable hide_tkdline_duration was held but the meeting didn’t reach a conclusion. It was decided to continue discussion outside of the meeting.
