Development schedule update from release manager

Invoices from contract development have caught up to fundraising.

Update on membership renewals.

Proposal for next month:

• authorize invoicing up to $50,000 between now and August, with extended payment terms
• authorize the use of the line of credit if necessary (at the end of payment term)
• recognize that development will slow for the remainder of summer due to holidays
• continue fundraising to close the gap

Elections

Mic will be coordinating Leadership Elections in the coming weeks.

2) Question: Should DSpace keep the 1 guaranteed seat for the gold members as for the previous year?

3) Request: Are any leaders willing to reach out to members at their tier level to solicit candidates?
