Rough guess from the donations is 37,324 yen which includes
Hikari's 10,000 yen personal donation.  According to Joe,
Hikari said it was okay to use the donation for either the
server parts or for JLUG.  Of the remaining 27,324 yen, 3,000 yen
is tagged specifically for JLUG.  So, we have 34,324 yen from
the April 14 meeting to buy a hard disk.  However, it was
recommended that we have JLUG a minimum of 10,000 yen.  This
leaves 

(- 37324 10000)
27324

if we donate 10,000 yen to JLUG and  (- 37324 3000)
34324 if we donate 3,000 yen to JLUG.  We also have approximately
(- 43372 20000) 
23372

in reserves from previous meetings.

Any day is fine with me.

We should probably solicit a volunteer for the kanji-san for the
May nomikai.


Joe and I were talking about the need for more volunteers to
power the spread of TLUG.   I'll list some of the volunteers
that I think have volunteered, but I'm not sure if they have
or not.  Please confirm that you have indeed volunteered.
