       * BS to write to Andrew Pam re: mentioning our games night at the LUV beginners' workshop.
   * Local Servers 
     * Teeworlds; OpenArena - to be running full-time so that people can connect at will. Should be set up for voting to allow people to change maps.
    Maybe run a Teeworlds (or other lower-bandwidth) server external, so people not at the meeting can join
    AF and AB to see how feasible such a server is; which machine, what network, traffic concerns for VPAC (maps, other in-game downloads that can be hosted locally)
    Ethernet, wireless or both?
    AF: Bridge between the two networks needed, or choose one only
    Did we get anywhere with DreamHost or other hosting providers? 
    Ben F. recently renewed DreamHost account, can set up an experimental host.
    BF: calculate a reasonable fee for FSM hosting

    BF and AB to work on setting up image/media hosting, report back 2013-12 via email
    Possible uses for donations of funds
    Internet hosting
    Game servers
    Pizza again this month?
    AF tentatively confirms VPAC sponsorship; good enough to announce
    Decide the meal order before the meeting; don't occupy meeting time
    Ben S. dietary requirements: anchovies
    Next ctte meeting: 2013-12-12 (AF, BS, BF)
    Adam's last meeting until Feb. 2014
    Test a server a day before the meeting (since Adam won't be around to fix it)
    Planning for BBQ the following week
    Mumble for voice chat and conferencing: was it rad?
    Thank you Adam!
    Clear sound, quick set-up
    Yay!
    Venue scouting for FSM events
    Ben F.: contacted Sven Andriske <sven_andriske@gmx.net> for feedback on Software Freedom Day 2013 venue; no response.
    Preference for visibility of venue to passers-by
