[NCSG-PC] [NCSG-FC] Fwd: [council] FY20 Supporting Organization & Advisory Committee (SO/AC) ABR Kickoff

Sun Nov 18 13:05:56 EET 2018

[Observer ]

I held a webinar and asked the members for ideas for ABRl. FC was not
active back then, but they can now ask the mailing list and hold a webinar
and see what members need. Sometimes it is better to see what other
community groups have gotten approved and if those aligned with NCSG vision
and mission you can submit similar ones.

We are looking after the managed hosting with the tech team and James
Gannon is looking into options. we normally receive 9000 USD each year for
technical management of NCSG which we have spent this year on CIVI and
hosting.

You need to also put NCSG EC in the loop.

Thanks

Farzaneh
