The goal of this meeting is to make at least two decisions so that the teams can continue to work as hard as they did in the past weeks. If there is remaining time, we may share some information.

== Agenda ==
1. Preliminaries
1. Chair opens the Committee Meeting
1. Who is making minutes?
1. Is there a time limit? Who is time keeper?
1. Chair asks whether [[https://lists.cacert.org/wws/arc/cacert-board-private|cacert-board-private]] or [[https://lists.cacert.org/wws/arc/cacert-board|cacert-board]] maillist includes any items that need to be disclosed to Members.
1.#2 Business
{{{#!wiki caution
Acceptance of Businesses 48 Hours before beginning of Committee Meeting latest!
}}}
1. Most pressing subjects
1. CCA change. (who is in charge?/state)
1. Treasurer (discussion; formal decision?)
1. Financial team (who, tasks): information about elections (Bret did not accept his election. Maybe we should change the focus, instead look for a treasurer, look for an volunteer-accountant - not board member and a 7th board member. One of the board members, called "treasurer", will only be the contact to the accountant (the rest of the time, he can do other things).) Details see here: [[Brain/CAcertInc/Committee/MeetingAgendasAndMinutes/2021-01-07/FinancialTeam]]
1. ABC: Ted would like to know if board is comfortable with the idea that the Background Check itself will not be any kind of test anymore, but more some kind of "risk mitigation advisory session". If this direction of action is OK, he'd like to announce some workshop on policy mailing list for end of next week, which should try to create the checklist of topics to discuss during that session... Unless he hears any protest during this meeting, he will write some invitation and publish it on the policy list. Does anyone think that a wider publication (like on the cacert mailing list or by a blog post) would make any sense?
1. [[https://bugs.cacert.org/view.php?id=1499|Bug 1499]] Re-Sign-Signer-Class-3-Certificate-processus: invite ... to start and critical admin to take over when it is time.

=== ABC Conference ===
Resumee of the voice conference at Blue Button:
It was a good constructive and efficient meting. We are on our way to propose a new procedure for the ABC in the coming weeks. The new procedure is a guidance both about what should be the content of the interview and the way to accept or not the applicant after the interview completed.
On point #1: what we should pay attention at during the interview, which items should we take care to collect.
On point #2: how should we use further what we got on point #1, how to keep it, how to decide formally about our trust in the new comer.
Great work from Bernhard. Looks like CAcert was fun again to deal with for him! :-)
