Treasurer's Report

Here is the financial summary spreadsheet for January 2014: File:HacDC Financials 2014 01.pdf. In the past month we received resignations from At-Large Director Shawn Nock, long-time contributor Martin Rothfield, Ken Chalk, Richard Pournelle, Zach Walls, Jarett DeAngelis, Erica Kane, and Robert King. We have one new member, Abe. Including dues-paying, dues-waived, and behind-on-dues-but-repaying members, we have 57 members.

Project Awesome

Here is the Project Awesome spreadsheet for January: File:HacDC PA Projects-2014 01.pdf. Since we have a negative surplus for the first time since December 2012, I cannot justify declaring a Project Awesome dividend for the month.

Secretary's Report

Calendar of non-HacDC events. http://jbwa.net/HacDC.php <ITG Comments>If people like, I'll move it over to the HacDC site. Also other calendars can be added from sites like Meet-up (Maybe NOVA Labs?).</ITG Comments>
Increasing cross-talk between spaces in the region. Looking for help.
GE Garages? We were propositioned to "work with them"... deadline for response is Friday, don't know what this really is.
Don't leave empty food containers in the space.

Nothing new to report. Kitbuild continues to plan for a way to combine resources with another initiative. Recent talk about running an ongoing basic microcontroller curriculum on Mondays may offer an opportunity to have a kit build before the advent of the HacDC Summer School 2014 session.
