5. 5 WGs Finance Availabilities o Indication of financial assistance available to WGs from the DySPAN-SC account, should they require it. Calculated to 25 August 2013 according to the procedure passed by motion at the 2012 Osaka General Meeting Available to 1900.1 = $715.59 Available to 1900.4 = $19,993.41 Available to 1900.5 = $1,401.35 Available to 1900.6 = $1,768.48 Available to 1900.7 = $1,669.70 Available to DySPAN-SC = $31,157.11 8 th IEEE DySPAN-SC General Meeting – Arlington, VA, USA, August 2013

6. 6 WGs Losses in Some Recent Meetings o A reminder that 1900.4, 1900.5, 1900.6 and 1900.7 incurred losses in mid-2012 meetings o Reminder that the following solution was chosen in Washington, DC Jan 2013 meeting 1900.4 has a lot in the bank, and the loss was small, hence, loss should come from 1900.4 available finances The incurred losses of other WGs would wipe out all of their available finances. DySPAN-SC will step in and incur the losses of 1900.5, 1900.6 and 1900.7 o Emphasize that WGs and meeting hosts should coordinate with the Treasurer before holding meetingsTreasurer/leadership have no issue with losses for a good cause, but they should be planned 8 th IEEE DySPAN-SC General Meeting – Arlington, VA, USA, August 2013

7. 7 We (Still) Have Too Much Money o Losses, if planned for a good cause and anticipated, are good! o Because, WE HAVE TOO MUCH MONEY! o Something like $20k-$30k is a good buffer against losses at meetings, we are current hovering around $50k. Treasurer believes we should approximately halve what we have in bank o We need to consider how we can spend our money, to the benefit of DySPAN-SC and the 1900 groups. Issue has been touched on in the past, however, we have not spent o What can we do? Slick promotional campaign? Deliberately run losses at more meetings, e.g., inviting additional prominent attendees (expenses paid) to express expertise? Publications fees Additional GoToMeeting Licenses to facilitate meetings ( - done…!) 8 th IEEE DySPAN-SC General Meeting – Arlington, VA, USA, August 2013
