Add July 2025 AGM minutes
Note that the registered guests list may be incomplete, I included one who notified me in IRC that they attended but need to obtain a full list from the former secretary. A TODO line has been added in the interim.

The July meeting of SPI is its Annual General Meeting. Thank you to Martin

Martin, Héctor and I have been working with our auditor to get our 2024
46+
financial statements audited. We are also working with the auditing firm on
47+
filing our New York State and Federal annual filings. We have received a 6
48+
month extension for the time to file and are confident the filings will be
49+
completed by the November 15, 2025 deadline.
50+
51+
The SPI Board is currently seeking nominations for 5 open/expiring board terms.
