Paul Gibson, N1TUP at 10:05 am at the Newington Hamfest on Sunday
June 13, called the meeting to order.

The minutes and the Treasurers report was read and accepted.

John Ahle, W1JMA, informed the group that he had sent out to areas
coordinators the CSMA standards, Bylaws, Database and invitation
to sign a memorandum of understanding to recognize CSMA and the
Cross Coordinating bodies.  To date there has been no response to
the memorandum.  He did not that UNYREPCO asked for assistance in
obtaining their 501c3 status.  CSMA has sent information to UNYREPCO
to facilitate their obtaining this IRS status.

Tom Frenaye was in attendance and there was a discussion about NFCC.
There has been no change in its status for the past six months.

John Spigel submitted the domain invoice for our website in the
amount of $32 for reimbursement.

Bruce Marcus discussed the 3/14/04 technical meeting held to
discuss various repeater issues.

James Delaney discussed activities on 220 coordination.  He suggests
we have all our forms in PDF format.  This issue of form style was
discussed and the group agreed to a PDF standard rather than the
current text format.

After extensive discussion, it was decided to hold another technical
meeting on Sunday 7/17/04 at 10am in Southington to discuss the
current standards v.1 and other technical issues.  John Ahle will
distribute to those in attendance the standards that were sent to
coordinating bodies.

It was decided by those present that the Secretary would be the
keeper of the official standards as adopted and modified.  The
Webmaster will modify the distribution of all applications so the
President, band coordinator and Frequency Coordinator are receiving
all inquiries.

Bruce Marcus made the following motion:  All Coordination will
go to the board of directors for review and comment before the board
votes on coordination.  A simple majority of the board will constitute
a complete coordination. James WJ1D seconded motion. Upon discussion
this motion was tabled till the 7/17 meeting.

All existing officers have volunteered to be nominated for another
term.  There were no nominations from the floor.
President:  Paul Gibson
