Phrynne, what's your bit for today? |

Phrynne |
Not much. |
| 15:03 |
Phrynne |
Spring hath sprung, and I'll be putting out flowers fairly soon -- but maybe not this week. I have been having visual problems and computer issues, so I have not been inworld much. I hope to be back more by next weekend. |
| 15:03 |
Phrynne |
and that's it. |
| 15:03 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Thank you. |

Wordsmith Jarvinen |

Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Nothing new yet on the fundraiser. |

The last fundraiser brought in 20010 lindens |
| 15:04 |

| 15:04 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
There are individuals working on a big series of events at the end of the month. |
| 15:05 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I was told a fundraiser would be included, will be finishing up the info on that this week |
| 15:05 |
Carl Metropolitan |
For the Caledon anniversary? |
| 15:05 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Yes |
| 15:05 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I am thinking of another way to help raise some funds. But I need to speak to the deans first |
| 15:06 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Will let you all know if it comes about |
| 15:06 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
all for me |
| 15:06 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Thank you, Andrea. |
| 15:07 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I have instructor stipends paid through yesterday, which leaves only tier to consider to date. |
| 15:09 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
If I start the quarter on 1 Jan with my nominal padding of 225k $L, add 39 days of tier to that and compare with our current balance, we're about 12k $L below where I'd like to be. |
| 15:10 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I think that was more like -5k $L just after the last fundraiser. So new ideas are definitely welcome. |
| 15:10 |
Carl Metropolitan |
A question about funding/fund-raising? How many people are participating as Oxbridge Patrons? And how many are paying whatever the monthly amount for ad signs? |
| 15:10 |
Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) |
Gronk Seriman gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway. |
| 15:11 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Because we do have financial padding, this isn't a crisis. |
| 15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I'm behind on that carl. |
| 15:11 |
Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) |
Phrynne gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway. |
| 15:11 |

Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I'll see about getting something together next week |
| 15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

Tealcie Annibles (tealcie) |
Who do I speak to about ad boards after this meeting? |
| 15:12 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Or Libre Office would do Andrea |
| 15:12 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
hi kara |

| 15:13 |

| 15:13 |
Carl Metropolitan |
How much is an adboard currently? |
| 15:13 |
Kara2016 |
Smiles brightly. |
| 15:13 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Last I recall, 2500 per quarter |
| 15:14 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Thank you. |
| 15:15 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Although, I'm also using ads to reward and promote community building activities, like Elfbiter's writing workshop |
| 15:15 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
:-) |
| 15:15 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Things easily earned by sweat labor. |
| 15:17 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I've also been working on project documentation for projects I've put in a Git repository under Atlassian's Bitbucket. |
| 15:18 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
This is an example: http://www.caledonoxbridge.org/oxdocs/Doc_ClassStats.html |
| 15:19 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
The actual documentation is part of the repository as a "Markdown" file. |
| 15:19 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
With that, open for questions in general |
| 15:21 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
I have seen the train off the rails at least couple of times. like the mini-sub used to do. |
| 15:21 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
So that may need some adjustments. |
| 15:21 |
Phrynne |
I thought that was a lag problem. |
| 15:21 |
|
Larky (larkylouz) assumed drunk engineers. |
| 15:22 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Yes, have ghost trains appear behind the lecture hall has long been a feature of the world. They disappear when clicked on. |
| 15:22 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Someone asked me about the carriage that used to run between Oxbridge and Oxbridge Village. I told them that the last I knew, the old one had been accidentally returned during a griefing attack, and the creator was no longer in world, and that Wordsmith and Rainy were working on a replacement. Is that still correct? |
| 15:22 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
This one went behind me, did not vanish and then went to the railway station. |
| 15:23 |
Cychwynn |
I have also been unable to sit down on the train in Stormhold |
| 15:24 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
That's still correct, Carl. At the moment, Rainy has a temp-rez ridable horse "done" but still evolving. |
| 15:24 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
rode one the other day. rides good |
| 15:24 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Thank you. |
| 15:25 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Sometimes, that can be an angle problem, Cychwynn. Being almost vertical to the place you want to sit often solves it. |
| 15:25 |
Carl Metropolitan |
On a related note, does anyone remember who made the gargoyles that used to be here and had to be returned when the sim went from an full size sim to an homestead sim? |
| 15:26 |
Cychwynn |
I did try a few times at all sorts of angles. may still just have been me though |
| 15:26 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I'd assume Martini, but new versions of those are also on Rainy's to do list. |
| 15:27 |
Carl Metropolitan |
No. I'm pretty sure those were not Martini's |
| 15:27 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Since now we have animesh for creation. |
| 15:29 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
We should be able to recreate them at lower LI. |
| 15:29 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
More questions? |
| 15:30 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Confusions? Consternations? Comas? |
| 15:31 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Seeing nothing more, |
| 15:31 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
.... |
| 15:32 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
We are adjourned. |
| 15:32 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Thank you all for coming and participating. |
| 15:32 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Bedtime and so on |
| 15:32 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
