Samuel has not sent the emails yet to potential XDC 2022 organizers. However,
they have a template email already done, so it is just a matter of finding time
to send it.

ITEM: HDMI 2.1
Harry hasn't received any responses from the rest of the board to their email
with the HDMI 2.1 email draft yet
ACTIONS: Lyude to send response today
STATUS: Pending

ITEM: Elections
The nomination period is open and we've received 3 nominations so far, and I
expect to see 2 more. Additionally, we found out that apparently some of the
emails with membership reminders have been getting filtered out as spam email on
Gmail. Lyude is talking with a community member who works at Google to see what
can be done to fix that.
ACTIONS: Harry to try resending email to each different mailing list at a time,
to see if that gets things to move through
STATUS: Pending

ITEM: GSoC/Outreachy
Unfortunately we weren't able to find anyone to mentor for GSoC, so we didn't
submit an application. Haven't heard back from mfilion about outreachy yet.
ACTIONS:
STATUS: Pending

ITEM: XDC2022 sponsors
Intel signed on as platinum, no other updates yet.
