Treasurer's report (or lack thereof)

[Ian Jackson]

No.  But previously there was just a heading `Treasurer's Report' with
some facts.  This time we have things like `Bdale Garbee suggests that
the Treasurer's report delivered is not a real Treasurer's report'
which clearly states that a report was delivered and implies it was
just Bdale who criticised it.

I agree with you (having seen Jimmy's mail now).  But I still think
the minutes should be corrected.  Do you have an objection to my
revised wording, which I think is more accurate ?

Indeed so.

Yes, please, if that's not too inconvenient.

Ideally I would prefer the reports to be posted to spi-general with
the serial numbers etc. filed off, but if other board members want to
see the full details then it would be unreasonable to ask Jimmy and
Branden to prepare two versions of the report.
