= IRC Meeting to be held Sunday, June 22, 2008 =

== Agenda ==

Our most critical issue is setting up a better email infrastructure.  Along with this question, we should put together some longer-term plan about allocating our cabinet resources at Peer 1.  There are some secondary agenda items that we should address when we convene.

=== Primary Agenda Item: Adding a new Mail Server ===

There seems to a be a consensus among board and admins that we need to allocate a new machine to be a mail server.  There are different options available to us:

 * Use Xanadu - machine is currently not utilized and in our cabinet
   * Pro: Inexpensive
   * Con: weak hardware that will consume a scarce resource (rack space).  a hard drive or drives still have to be bought and configured, and the RAID card, which might or might not work, has to be installed.
 * Purchase a robust server and run Xen.  Allocate one slice to mail, another for shell, and other slices to members
    * Pro: Better long-term solution that allows us to make better resource of our rented space
    * Cons: May take longer to set up, and would be expensive
    * Additional resources:
      * Justin's email about expanding and virtualization: http://justin.phq.org/hcoop/expansion_virtualization.txt
      * Possible configuration for the kind of server that we would need to purchase for this plan: http://justin.phq.org/hcoop/virtual_server.pdf

=== Secondary Items ===

 * Add a secondary MX at hcoop.net: https://bugzilla.hcoop.net/show_bug.cgi?id=369
 * Give JustinLeitgeb sudo access, and shell on all machines, since he already has on-site access
