Prior to the commencement of the meeting, apologies were made due to some misunderstandings which resulted in exchanges of e-mails between members of the pacinet-2010 mailing list. It was confirmed that Daryl is still member of the committee.
Agenda:

1. Minutes of Last Meeting

It was moved, seconded and agreed that this is the true minute of last meeting.

2. Matters arising from Last meeting minute

1. Domain

Thanks to Dan for completing the work on the website (www.pacinet-2010.org). It was agreed that Dan liaise with William Tiben about the contents of the web site. PICISOC will have a link to point to the PacINET 2010 website which will have all the information about the conference.

2. Kava Night

Chairman thanked all who have contributed to the kava night held at Emalus Campus. Chair-Lady of the Finance Committee will report later to PacINET 2010 about the Kava Night.

3. Date of PacINET 2010 Conference

PICISOC's board agreed that the date of the PacINET 2010 Conference be moved forward. The reason being that the IGF conference will be held on the week and some key speakers may not be available for either one of the two conferences. New date for the PacINET 2010 Conference will be 27 September to 01 October 2010.

We will keep our booking for USP Emalus Conference facilities but we will need to find a new venue while we continue our discussions with PICISOC and let them know about our findings.

4. Update Report

This agenda has been postponed for our next face-to-face meeting.

            Letter Head

Letter head for our local correspondences will have both the PacINET 2010 and PICISOC logo. However, for all our overseas correspondences, we only use PICISOC's logo.

For our local correspondences, letter head will change when we get confirmation of sponsorship as per our minute for our meeting dated 18 March 2010.

Once letter head is ready, we can start sending out our letters to some of our corporate sponsors.

5. Theme

ISOC asks if PacINET 2010 Committee can organize a forum on IPv6 and Paul Wilson (Head of APNIC) will be the key speaker.

It was agreed that Andrew send an e-mail about suggestions to amend the theme to cater for the IPv6 forum.

Dan has already made preliminary contacts with some possible speakers. It was agreed that Dan liaise with Maureen about the speakers for the conference

6. AOB

It was agreed that we make use Skype online meeting due to non attendance of some members of the committee because of work commitment.
