Governing Board Meeting Minutes and Notes

Yahoo! Free Conference call

            Agenda:

• 1.     The next event and whether it will be the Lexis Nexis presentation or not
• The initial interest from WPAFB contacts has waned due to incorrect conception that the software is proprietary.  Lexis must run government issues thru Nisha.  The event will be cancelled until it receives more interest.   Paul Hare will advise L/N of situation.
