News from the Membership Committee

We noticed many issues were found during latest elections within 
committee's workflow and procedures. One of them is strictly related 
to membership's renewals notifications being sent with huge delays or 
even not being sent at all. 

Tobias fixed up the broken script and everything seems to be OK again 
now looking at the good bunch of requests we received lately. [1]

The script will run monthly and will automatically notify any 
Foundation member who needs to renew his membership. 

That said, I would like everyone to know that we have several 
important topics to discuss on our next meeting (TBD but it should 
happen within this month though) and I definitely invite everyone to 
join us to propose new ideas or discuss the existing ones. You can 
find our Agenda at [2].

Have a great day everyone!

cheers,

Andrea
