Operations

AGM

We discussed potential AGM dates and have considered a Monday evening slot in October to allow for enough notice to be called. This will hopefully enable more members to potentially join compared to a mid-day event on a weekend. We need to announce this by 5th of September.

Financial and Membership Report

The financial report was shared by Jon via email and tallies up with civicrm.

We currently have 105 full members.

Thank you to Freegle for renewing their corporate membership.

Loomio

We are still getting a lot of suspect accounts attempting to join this forum, and those who are permitted tend to not use the forum much.

Gareth has tabled a motion to add the retirement of Loomio to the future AGM and it was passed.

Projects

QP3

This is about stale data. The wiki page is up here https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UK_Quarterly_Project/2024/2024_Q3_Project:_Stale_Data and it was discussed at the OSM UK chat in July.

Reports from events

OSM UK chat

Gareth hosted another event with CJ in July which was about the quarterly project where we talked about subcategories of data to focus on.

Future Events

OSM UK Chat

This is scheduled on the 19th of August.

AOB

On the community forum there was a post from someone who was working with local govt and Robert has reached out to see if they can assist.
