 * Still waiting on Financial Statement - Matt G says the bookkeepers are willing to put in 1 hour / day. This will take several weeks. They're willing to prioritize it if we can pay them.
 * Still waiting on Dragon's bio [jenny sent another reminder 10/5 and another 10/16] Thank you Jenny!
 * Subleases & Fiscal Sponsorship Agreeements: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B4_Q7DQvNFT-b0dPVnhOUHRWMmM&usp=sharing
 * Still need subleases from: MPM (Did they sign it yet?) & FNB (signature, Jenny will acquire)
 * Fiscal Sponsorship agreements from: Liberated Lens & Sudo Mesh. LL is meeting tomorrow to discuss. Jenny submitted a delegates proposal for sudo mesh last week but it wasn't discussed.
 * Laura: Does fiscal sponsorship require a proposal? Maybe there should be a proposal that is more general, like to agree to criteria for the finance or fundrasing working group to accept fiscal sponsrship arrangements?
 * According to the agreement Jesse wrote up, fiscally-sponsored projects need to be approved by the BoD... but it's a draft agreement, we can change it!
 * Edit Charitable Activities response: https://pad.riseup.net/p/omniactivities
 * Via Jesse: "The items Jenny describes are what I would need to finish the application and in particular the financial statements. I looked at the draft of the activities and it is going in the right direction.  For line 5 I will take that information and provide some suggested language.  I will also suggest some revisions of what you've written when I send you the final application."

= Other Fundraising Efforts =
 * More legal help from Cal Business LAw students. They want to attend the next Delegates Meeting to give a short workshop on Borad member legal responsibility/liability that they say is mostly reassurance. We should invite anyone who might be a delegate to come to at lease that portionof the meeting, maybe from 7-8pm.
 * Update on Kiva app?
 * Grantwriting team potentially maybe possibly emerging?
 * Jenny attempting to organize collabazaars in the front space but no one of the 20+ people she's contacted has done anything to help :( - https://pad.riseup.net/p/collabazaar
