The last preparations for the information of the community are under way (by the secretary).

Information on the availability of the new Class-3 Root certificate should be communicated to members through our discussion lists and blog. The new signed certificate should have been made available before that date.
==== New background Check by Community procedure ====
An explicit communication is going to be delivered to members through our mailing lists about the reasons and the modalities for moving from ABC to BCC: inactivity of Arbitration in ABC cases, necessity to staff our teams, necessity to make the background of new comers scrutinised.
==== Staffing our teams ====
Support team
Dirk is going to create the relevant new accounts in OTRS for new comers and to extend access rights to Aleš Kastner (his nomination was accepted as a Support Engineer) in OTRS; Dirk committed to do so no later than Sunday the 9th of May, 2021.
'''Finance Team'''
Emmanuel who was an applicant to the finance team, and a high profile candidate (entrepreneur), resigned, because of starting a new business. Both Waclaw Schiller (PL) and Michael (CA) wants to join the finance team. Michael wants to apply as a treasurer, too. Frederic proposes to join the team, too.
Motion to nominate Michael Richardson, Waclaw Schiller and Frederic Dumas to be members of the Finance Team.
Votes: 3 Ayes, no Naye, no Abstain
The secretary welcomes the new finance team with a glass of virtual wine from CAcert's new home ([[https://eu-browse.startpage.com/av/anon-image?piurl=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.mycity.travel%2Fmanage%2Fuploads%2F6%2F13%2F91961%2F1%2Fles-2-verres-jomini-dans-la-vigne-1_2000.JPG&sp=1620335917T91939c6816efb85bcad411816a23695dae0af6b9baf3c057e774eee7ec8f8d23|Lake Geneva region]]).
Motion to nominate Michael Richardson as the treasurer of CAcert and as a consequence, a member of its committee of directors, too.
Votes: 3 Ayes, no Naye, no Abstain
==== Grant application ====
Frederic would like our Finance Team:
to work efficiently on the Linux Foundation. It looks like a good vehicle to drain funds from crowd, and not only from major donors;
to get in closer contact with those "higher profile donors", who proposed us the help of their companies to support CAcert in 2019, and who we barely never contacted back since.
Our chair, Brian, closed the meeting at 21:52 UTC.
Next meeting - 6. May, 3. June, 1. July, 5. August
