    • VPN
      • There has been two requests recently for remote access to SKTW network (access spacefiles, rpi or IoT here, etc)
        • Currently we have a openvpn-as server running for admin purposes. If we license it we can give out access to the membership. ~$20 per user/year with a minimum of 10 user purchase. The suggestion is to charge members $20/year for VPN access to SKTW network.
          • Taylor suggested we table this for the time being and put up a sign up sheet to see what the interest would be.
            • Al motioned to accept Taylor's suggestion, was seconded and accepted unanimously
