Decisions

Alessia introduced her potential SIG, touching on aspects such as the events that they plan to organise, and the kind of relationship that they would wish to have with CompSoc. She was also keen to learn how CompSoc runs - specifically SIG wise. It would seem like their idea of a trading-related SIG would be quite in line with what we would expect from a SIG, but further discussion is clearly required on many topics. Everyone agreed that we should meet their other team members, too.
Elspeth asked our opinion on signing up for accountancy software – everyone agreed.
Ryan confirmed we can now edit the Sponsorship PDF. Alexandra and Ryan will handle the editing: fonts, new pictures etc. We should aim to send it to potential sponsors by late July.

TODO

Have another meeting with more members to discuss:
- Donation response
- HackJunction event
- Potential SIG
For Alexandra and Ryan: finish up sponsorship doc by late July
