LAN

The Port Patch request has been sent with reply to techteam@warwickcompsoc.co.uk

Richard Wilson and Chris Boyle were tasked to check the firewall scripts on bong; tt was agreed that the techteam woud review the policy on intenet access.

The exec formally agreed that the issue of music in the LAN rooms would be put to a vote on a per room basis. Concern over the electrical power ratings of the rooms was voiced given the disparity between the numbers of people wanting to be in each room that this will cause an issue. Richarfd Wilson and the technical team are to work this out on the day. It was stated at this point that their decisions would be final.

Maximum Weasels request
Peter Ellis had already dealt with it saying that he could put Weasel down as a reserve, which was declined.

BBQ

The necessary equipment was verified to have been organised and it detailed below:
* The BBQ, from David Buckley
* HOG are providing paper plates and utensils (NOT the society)
* E-mail reminder that members bring their own food.
* We need to find a map, Nexus
* Probably also one from PlanarPlatypus, alowing a seperate one for veggie
* PP to get other BBQ and a small table for veggie. The exec as a whole noted that this was not setting a precedent for future BBQ events and was simply good fortune for this one. We need to ensure we have a fire extinguisher, alternative arrangements can be made if Nexus failed to get one.

* First Aid kit from Richard Wilson
* Extinguisher from Paul Broadbridge
