Minutes of executive committe meeting 2007-10-02 ************************************************* Present: Falk, Fredrik, Jon EU Funding ********** Jon has been looking at EU funding. Initial study of the program indiactes that it could fit the EJA well. However making the application is a really big job. For that reason we might try to apply next year and then use the 2007 financials as a basis for the application. In parallel Daan has been looking at another EU program. It would be good to get Daan to go ahead with the application through that program. The meeting decided that Daan should be given the go-ahead to apply on behalf of EJA for the program at which Daan has been looking. Financials ********** We would really need to get an indication on how EJC2007 in Athens did financially in order to understand the current state of EJA liaibilities. We need to know when they can repay the loan and if the guarantee needs to be used. The current outstanding loan is EUR 23000 and the guarantee is up to EUR 20000. Falk will investigate if EJA can afford a meeting in November if we do not need to use the guarantee for Athens. Newsletter ********** The intention is to put out the newsletter this coming weekend. Fredrik will send an email to the list to ask for any input. Promotion ********* It was discussed if we should start a subgroup for promotion and if we could ask Jules to be the coordinator of that subgroup. It was decided that we should do so and ask Jules to produce an action plan and a budget for review. Minutes taken by Fredrik Almgren Minutes approved Falk Hante Jon Skjerning-Rasmussen
