- We are currently revising the VIVO budget and have questions for the group before we submit the revisions to LYRASIS.
- We don’t have an updated version to share with the group yet.
- Would like to discuss future potential expenses and revenue for next year. (Thanks, Hannah, for joining the call for this discussion.)
- VIVO voting process (Julia, 30 minutes)
- The Leadership Group Processes page outlines our current voting process. It’s based on the Apache voting process which states that any -1 vote is considered a veto. Please read both of these short pages before the meeting.
- Do we want to make changes in our voting process?
- We have postponed the vote to add the DCSP as a voting member, so that’s not under discussion.

Notes
- Budget questions with Hannah Sommers
- No updated budget available yet.
- Hannah, current budget preliminary budget 2019, last update June. This is what working from for LYRASIS.

- LYRASIS budget year doesn't line up with DURASPACE looking to use Jan-June 2020 in the near term.
- Begin discussion about VIVO camps

- Hannah, starts discussion about travel in first half of 2020.
- is there a formal process for prioritize travel?
- ensure we can track cost for camps, etc.
- we do need to define a travel cost number / revisit travel policy
- more discussion about architectural fly in Andrew has pros from last year possibly this year. Leave it open.
- What about what used to be VIVO at DuraSpace summit. Will there be opportunity for VIVO at LYRASIS summit?? Some other venue?
- VIVO voting process
- Julia reviews process
- has worked well in the process
- Leadership usually votes only on "procedural process" only
- seems to be based on https://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html
- Mike reviews some of the background of previous votes
- Julia asks for input from group. Leadership group solicits input from everyone what does consensus mean? Should 1 vote have the ability to veto a process, etc. A lot of various perspectives.
- Pros / Cons for "Procedural" just being majority vote to pass.
- How can we change the voting process if needed.
- More talking / clarification about voting and conference. Agenda to re-do vote and re-send form.
