[Board] Amazon Smile

[Galen Charlton]

Hi Tiffany,

I agree. I've actually implemented the treasurer at evergreen-ils.org as a
group address, as that way it makes it possible for an incoming officer
after a transition to gain access to previous messages without necessarily
needing to share passwords.

If it's OK with you, I can set up a tlittle at evergreen-ils.org (or whatever
you want the address to be) account now as well as a
secretary at evergreen-ils.org group.

Regards,

Galen
