+\begin{enumerate}
+\item The meeting was opened.
+\item \meetingchairman\ was elected meeting chairman, \meetingsecretary\ meeting secretary, and \approval\ approval.
+\item The standard agenda was confirmed.
+\item The meeting went through the minutes from \lastmeetingdate.
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item Still no minutes are available from April 21.
+ \item Leif-Jöran still needs excerpt from May 19.
+ \item Leif-Jöran's turns with \prqq\ continues. The new machine is in
+ place: \savanah\ is the new \gnuhost. The old machine had been taken by
+ the police. No user information was available on that machine. It is
+ now back in Gothenburg and need investigation.
+ \item The meeting planned for June 30 became a work meeting, attended
+ by Leif-Jöran and Guilhem.
+ \end{itemize}
+\item Reports
+ \begin{enumerate}
+ \item Economy. Five new members and one known from previously have
+ payed membership fees. In total there are 62 paying members this
+ year.
+ \item System. Quite a bit was done in the early summer.
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item The web mail is migrated to \elefant. With this new setup,
+ email headers are cached on the serving Dovecote side instead of
+ in Roundcube, which results in increased performance. There have
+ been reports about slow connections, which might be because of
+ corrupted cached indices in Dovecote. Guilhem will remove those,
+ so that they are rebuilt.
+ \item The \mx\ service is migrated to \elefant.
+ \item Some security changes are implemented:
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item Password hashing is changes to be 10 times slower. This is
+ to complicate brute force attacks.
+ \item \pgp\ keys can be uploaded to the \ldap\ directory for
+ emails to be encrypted on delivery.
+ \item Regarding password reset. Guilhem is working on a project
+ for one-time reset through a token. For this to work,
+ alternative addresses need to be added to the
+ \ldap\ directory.
+ \item The idea of sending tokens using \sms\ messages was
+ brought up. More information is needed.
+ \item The \ldap\ directory is open for all, so that the web
+ configuration tool can be used.
+ \end{itemize}
+ \end{itemize}
+ \item Other reports
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item Delphine have made an accessibility review of the website
+ and the wiki. There are some changes that she wants to
+ perform. Changes will be made in connection to the transfer to
+ the new web infrastructure. An activity day, October 18, will be
+ focused towards web accessibility.
+ \item Leif-Jöran is negotiating about a rack section at one of the
+ server halls that have been discussed before.
+ \item It has been suggested by a member to introduce the usage an
+ online voting service, Vote\textsc{it}. Members of the board
+ have looked into that service before for other purposes. For
+ Fripost we don't see the need right now: geographical distance
+ is not encouraged, and we usually do not vote much. Democracy in
+ Fripost is built around local engagement and consensus. However,
+ solutions such as Vote\textsc{it} should not be ruled out for
+ the future.
+ \end{itemize}
+ \end{enumerate}
+\item Activity days and other activities
+ \begin{enumerate}
+ \item Previous activities. There are two activities in the past to
+ report on.
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item May $\mathrm{1^{st}}$. The following can be read on Fripost's wiki
+ \begin{quote}
+ Friposts medlemmar var och delade ut flygblad om Fripost i och
+ nära första-majtågen i Göteborg. Hela 600 flygblad hade
+ skrivits ut för att delas ut och alla gick åt. Friposts aktiva
+ deltog i tre första-majtåg. Flygbladen delades ut på
+ Järntorget, Masthuggstorget och Gustav Adolfs torg.\myhalfpar
+ Responsen var bra och stämningen god. Det var inte sällsynt
+ att Fripost var känt redan sedan tidigare hos de som fick
+ flygblad. För\-mod\-li\-gen minst två medlemmar har rekryterats
+ genom aktiviteten. Förs\-ta-maj\-ak\-ti\-vi\-te\-ten är värd att delta i
+ också nästa år.
+ \end{quote}
+ \item Forum theatre activity May 21. Six persons attended the
+ session. The moral was that we (the board) should create a play
+ that can be performed. Lola has suggested to Elinor from
+ Studiefrämjandet that Fripost could perform the play to a broad
+ audience. Next meeting about this need at least four hours,
+ because otherwise people don't get up and release
+ themselves. Soon there will be more to read at the wiki.
+ \end{itemize}
+ \item Coming activities
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item Fripost will not participate in Omställningskonferensen this year.
+ \item On Kulturnatta Friday October 10, we will prepare a casual
+ hangout at omställningsverkstaden. What need to be prepared is
+ T-skirts, some banner, and posters with those news paper
+ articles that we used before. The target is to hang around and
+ encourage discussions.
+ \item Planning of activities on \fscons, need to be followed up
+ upon.
+ \end{itemize}
+ \end{enumerate}
+\end{enumerate}
+The agenda items 7, 8, and 9 were postponed because of time limitations.
+\begin{enumerate}
+\setcounter{enumi}{9}
+\item Next board meeting will take place October 8 at 18 at Språkbanken. Also note the work meeting September 22 at 18 at Spåkbanken.
+\item The meeting was closed.
