Resolve to deal with the 'Casual Vacancy' item first


Jean-michel has triggered article 12.5 of our constitution and his membership has been automatically terminated https://wiki.artifactory.org.au/doku.php?id=constitution#membership_fees

This leaves a casual vacancy on the committee that we have the option of filling.

Motion:

Appoint Lisa MCarthy to the management committee.

Small error in the attendance for the meeting before last (2020.05.23) Committee Meeting 2020.05.23

Jean-michel, who was still technically a member of the management committee at that time, was not noted in the attendance (neither as “Present”, “Apologies”, nor “Absent”). Given the circumstances, this should corrected.

Note that this change will be recorded for posterity, both in this meetings minutes, and also in the version control for that meeting's minutes page.

Motion:

Correct the minutes of the committee meeting for 2020.05.23, by adding “Jean-Michel” to the list of absent members.
