• Grant request for Gold Coast tech space from Steve Dalton.
  Clinton to report.
  Waiting for final version of the request?

• Grant request from Paul Wayper for video gear.
  After discussion, the council has decided to not grant the request. LCA liaison will discuss the decision with requester and suggest alternatives; ie: since the geat is to be used for LCA, put the gear on the LCA2013 budget and have CLUG keep using it after LCA rather than put it into storage unused.

• The council sends Stewart Smith its love.

• James is going to arrange for a SLUG subcommittee election to be held.
