1. Strategy One is shaping up. We are now moving to the automated email system. We are negotiating with a potential new Strategy One partner. Florida Vision Technologies. They are interested in providing the WCAG scans of sites and sponsoring at least 100 Communications Waves a month to begin with.

2. We are collecting stuff for the Grand Collections online store and now have the shelving needed to set it up. The space that was donated will not work so it is all in storage at a cost of $98.00 a month charged to ARS until we find a location.

3. We think we have found a new Web Master and developer, but the deal is not done yet.

4. We are still negotiating a consulting contract between ARS and OrCam LLC. They want us to investigate how OrCam might be utilized in government settings like elections.
