Funding
VTLUUG is currently eligible for:
- $1,500 from the SBB for the year
We could in the future be eligible for:
- $500 a semester, more with justification
- if we become a CS Affiliated Org. This is theoretically possibly doable *right now*, during the Fall '24 semester. Theoretically.
- $??? from the SEC
- if we jump through all the required hoops. these seemingly are:
- attendance to SEC ~3 meetings a semester
- >=3 hours of community service via the SEC in a *previous* semester
- signing up for some stuff
- if we jump through all the required hoops. these seemingly are:
Proposed Purchases
For each of the following, use this format.
- $PRICE <item name> (<person interested in buying it>)
- reason for proposed purchase
- link to a store page or quote with the price
- $716 8x14TB SAS Renewed HDDs (rsk)
- we can use these to turn cyberdelia into a massive NAS (~84TB with RAIDZ2 and a minimal root filesystem), which can then be used to serve public package mirrors (e.g. all ~5TB of Debian mirrors) and provide general storage for members
- https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0D5SP2487
- $165.75 300 stickers (rsk)
- assuming we can't print these at The Source, stickers are good to both give out at gobblerfest (advertising!) and haphazardly place on personal computing equipment. 300 should be enough to last us a while -- we should use HokieTux with the main website URL underneath.
