Notes

SOTM-US

Organizing committee should be responsible of most planning.
Every topic have a owner - doesn’t mean they have to do all the work, but should know what the updates are

Taxes

A few issues that need to be resolved
Non-Profit taxes due date May 15th
@Ian - Email craigslist - letting them we were not a nonprofit last year SOTM US
@Ian - E-mail Mark Diskin about decisions regarding how to file previous year taxes. Retroactive Taxes - Assume non-profit status or pay as a cooperation.
Think about hiring someone to help with book keeping

Law Clinic (wrapping up in 2 weeks)

Update from Alyssa - Things are going well. Both students are really smart and good writer. Interviewing a handful of people.
Students shared an initial draft with Alyssa and Mikel who provided some feedback going forward.
Thinking of presenting their results in different ways including a Town Hall or SOTM US
Will get a final draft in the next two weeks.

Open Map Camps

At the UN this summer. July 9th - 250 people.
Full day - open map day
Need to think of ways to engage the audience.
Current estimated budget $7000 covering food and location
OSM US will be a partner but will not be paying. Money would come from other organizing groups.
Invite to other organizations. Telenav, Missing Maps etc.
