** Motion passed
=== AGM debriefing ===
* Covered at the townhall meeting at the day after the AGM+
* 434 views on YouTube already
* We consider it successful as the first online/virtual AGM
* Angelos made suggestion: we should consider running such a meeting each year
* Suggestion Michael: if in person, we have more of an AGM discussion forum, but the main report is virtual
* ACTION: Victoria to help with the news article
* ACTION: Angelos to make a ticket to collect ideas for the next AGM / FOSS4G discussions (Done)
=== FOSS4G 2021 update status ===
* Maria and Malena report
* Argentina still quarantined
* LOC is close to open the ticket sales and sponsorship hunting
* Team is close to finishing touches in CFPs
* Pending issue #2511 (Mail accounts (no alias) for FOSS4G domain) https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/2511
** foss4g.org domain for mail accounts (and then reuse those mail accounts for future LOCs)
** The final solution we found is one that would be cheap, using Amazon SES, and fixes any privacy issues, as no email history is being stored on the server. So one LOC will get a clean email from the previous LOC but people will still have the reference email to contact
** not sure if this falls on SAC or Board to approve this
** The estimated amount is hilarous (US$2/month?) but as it is a foss4g.org domain we as LOC don't want to make the decision
** SAC made a temporary solution creating forwarding mail accounts with general names with no year
** But the forwarding doesn't allow us to send emails, which is needed to sell tickets
** discussion was started about moving the mailing service away from mailchimp, to a cheaper one, but given the time frame, we will have to continue using mailchimp
** discussion on marketing to move or not to something different from mailchimp, but that will arrive too late for us.

* Around here the second discussion: https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/marketing/2020-September/004813.html
=== OSGeo Virtual Code Sprint planning ===
* virtual code sprint this year, perhaps along with OGC
* virtual code sprint could also create some sponsoring opportunities

=== ISO/TC211 - Liaison to ISO/TC 211 from OSGeo ===
