Preliminaries

At 20:10 UTC the president took chair and opened the meeting. The secretary will make the minutes. The committee accept he minutes from July, 26th with two ayes and one abstain (by the minute taker).

Business

AGM: As some members talked about a dissolution, it is proposed to start a large (including the community) and deep discussion about the need and the future of CAcert with no vote at this AGM. If that discussion is overwhelmingly negative, then an SGM can be called in 2019. The treasurer should make a cash flow overview. It is pointed out that our members should be aware, that there are only two Web of Trust: GnuPGP (using the keyservers) and CAcert... (due to GDPR about half of the keyservers are on hold on the moment).

Linux Australia: As there is no mandate to dissolve inc, our endeavor must be to continue. President and Vice President will bring foreward the Grant Application the next days. The secretary draws attention to the possibility of becoming a member of Linux-Australia. They are pretty active and CAcert is Australian to. https://linux.org.au/get-involved

The President briefly reports on CAcert activities in North Carolina.
