 Most remaining providers have confirmed their status. Demian was unable to get responses from CINECA (Italy) or Scanbit (Spain). Scanbit's website still actively references VuFind-related services; CINECA's does not.
+Oliver might be able to find a CINECA contact to get clarification.

 What about a "membership drive" -- timing? Communication types?

-Ere raised the point that “Project” sounds like something that has an end date, and “Product” might be a better term for our name -- Product Management Committee. Is it worth changing? (Subsequent research reveaeled that "Project" seems to be more commonly used, so Ere withdrew the suggestion).
+Craig suggested that a better understanding of the user base would be helpful in figuring out how to approach fundraising.
+He also suggested that once a year is sufficient, and linking it to the Summit makes sense strategically.
+Demian pointed out that the installation list offers some insight on the community; Ere pointed out that GitHub forks are also interesting.

 David Maus has volunteered to fill in for Hajo starting in December, though he does not feel comfortable taking over Treasurer duties. Craig has volunteered for Treasurer, so he can fill that role if the necessity arises. Scott from OLF is helping in the near term while we wait for news.
+Galen asked about the status of accessibility auditing for VuFind; Demian mentioned that many institutions have done audits and contributed findings back to the project, though the core project itself has not been directly audited. Doing a project-initiated accessibility audit may be a good thing to consider as part of the development of the next theme. This could be something that fundraising could work toward.
