Hi Jan,
come to think of it... maybe the easiest would be to just create a *new*
bank account, and start with that one... I think we can get some
donations quickly. If Marc then transfers the existing funds to the new
account, it might just be easier than doing the transfer.
If we do this all through Keytrade bank (our current bank), I assume
they won't be giving us a hassle over closing down the empty bank
account. Otherwise leave €5 on it and that will be our 'hidden treasure' :)
As for the website... I have the impression that we have some people
stepping up at the moment. Who can give these persons author rights?
(and in extremis 1 person webmaster rights)
Grtz,
Jurgen.

Hi Guys,
indeed there should be a budget somewhere, but I have no idea.
Mark Vandenborre still is the only one that can access the account.
Indeed we tried to have a few IRL meetings, and it was all good, but I
have lost the energy to try and organise it.
I don't have the skills or expertise to maintain a site, and I think
maintaining a good site is key to the success of the project.
So these are my two main frustrations
a) Active members cannot access the account, so we can't do anything
when money is needed.
b) No-one is maintaining the site actively. We can't advertise who is
actively involved, who to contact for what, etc. I'm supposed to be
the LoCo contact, but how can I actively promote our group if the site
doesn't reflect this? How can I actively lobby with press or
government if I don't get a budget?
Most of the people that were at the IRL meetings, are not active
anymore, and most of the people that are active now, were never at an
IRL meeting.
If that magical someone would organise another IRL meeting, then I
will do my best to attend.
Cheers,
Jan.
