The motion passed unanimously. A motion (Dennis Brophy, Charles Dawson) was made to approve the minutes of the May 1, 2008 meeting. Motion passes. The motion passed unanimously. 5 Funding, Budgeting, and Financial Update Invoices have been sent out and everything is on track as far as Chair Pieper knows. 6 Editing update Shalom has opened mantis 2399 to address some minor issues that did not get fully input into the system. Mantis 1619 was not fully uploaded for Stu and the process to open a new mantis item should fix this. There was no objection for this process proposal to allow the SV-BC to address the issue this way. We will get another draft next week. There were numerous edits with many of them motivated by the AC committee changes and a detailed review by Shalom. The SV-AC additions were prolific and took more editor time than planned. There were still some references to 2008 in the draft, and Stu will search again to change all references to 2009. Most of the 2008 references were changed to 2009, but not all. Chair Pieper noted we will send a clean draft to the IEEE as we have reached one of the SA staff editorial review checkpoints. 7 Schedule Status Update Chair Pieper reviewed the schedule with the working group.
