Treasurer's report

I am continuing to work with zobel on streamlining our reporting and
hope to have the remaining outstanding reports released soon. We plan
on having the reports released in the next 4 weeks, if not sooner.

Secretary's report

Things are in motion for the by-laws vote. Working on the wording of
the vote information to input to the system and hopefully Snow-Man
helping out to generate the first round of member notification
emails. Vote proposed to run from sometime this week to March 15th
(approximately).

The 2018 annual report is in a pretty good shape. I've been collecting

the Treasury report but otherwise it's ready for publication. I hope
we can publish it right after the treasurer sprint.
