Quick summary from the President (does Apertium have an anthem I could 
have someone play here? The GNU does have one!)

* Thank you all for your support!
* Bytemark sponsors the server. That is the cheapest one you can find!
* I think we should host "presence" stuff only, and perhaps the SVN if 
we move away from SourceFarce
* Translators could be kept in xixona, or maybe we could pay Prompsit to 
host them, or distribute them
* The problem? Who will transfer the stuff to the new machine? I think 
it is a priority!
* What's Etherpad?

Best,

Mikel
