Dissolving core
James still working on a new draft.
DjangoCons
Email received on 2019-01-28 inquiring about DjangoCon AU; have we been in contact with them? License to use the name approved; Frank will email Richard.
Django Fellows
Paperwork is done to renew Carlton and onboard Marius. As we’ve done in the past, renewal brings slight increase in compensation. DSF is also now in agreement to provide assistance with travel when needed to ensure a Fellow is in attendance at each DjangoCon (US, EU, AU).
Malcolm Tredinnick Award
The 2018 Board has voted. Kojo Idrissa is the winner of the 2018 Malcolm Tredinnick Award.
Meeting minutes
James started drafting code for an app to do this; aiming to have it written by March meeting, and get 2019 minutes up once it’s in place.
New business
Django certification
Anna received a message from an entity asking if we about Django training and certification.
Would the Board consider officially recognizing certification/training entities? Resolved: no, not at this time.
