Chief Exec report

See weekly reports on office, including:

SOPA and the media

We had very little notice and the ferocity of the press interest took up a little by surprise. I called round the broadhseets on the TUesay afternoon and got our message over as well as possible and on Wednesday was lucky that David G and Roger were avilable most of the day with Martin and Steve in the afternoon and Mike as back-up.

Lessons? Communicate better with the readers and community. We need a fast news service on our pages and blogs. This is something for our comms person to look at.

QRpedia

On hold while Roger and Terence walk the red carpets.

Recruitment

Good interview day with Fae and Mike being super. We found a candidate we could all support.

The Comms post attracting a lot of interest. Fae and Marek69 for the panel.

Financial

Almost finished with the protocols - already using them which is good. The budget is also agreed by deadline last Friday.

Bank account being organised but getting signatures a drag.

Richard on brink of accountancy package being sorted.

Planning

Planning for next year. I have circulated a gdoc called Detail for 2012 where board members can add their ambitions, ownership of projects etc. This is urgent so I can get good planning going.

Fundraising debate

Would welcome feedback on WMDE paper. We need to know if we can support them.
