* Infrastructure
** RL reported that the backup script failed to dump the database for the B8MB wiki, apparently due to a directory being deleted. TM said he had mistakenly removed the directory. RL re-created directory.
** RL reported intermittent downtime alerts for the big-8.org website, no clear cause and usually only for a few minutes at a time.
** RL reported that 70% of requests to wiki seem to be from Amazon bots; RL to investigate blocking the associated user-agent in robots.txt.
** The Board received its annual Panix invoice, which should be automatically paid from the card on file.
** RL observed that our Open Collective account is low on funds and should be topped up. Agreed to defer discussion of this to a meeting where MM is also present, and also to inform JE of whatever is decided.
