* Facilitator: Nick
* Participants: Nick, Julien, Mikael, Edvard

== Agenda ==

* hellos / check-ins
* code of conduct read through (Martin/Nick)
** https://codi.kanthaus.online/trustroots-coc?edit
* Newsletter update (Julien)
** 8 people had joined newsletter group at hackweek co-ordinated by Mariano
** pad was started for work, but not much progress
** Julien has been collecting content, about 50% done :)
** too much content for a newsletter, thinking to send teasers in newsletter and full content in blog
** Mikael suggests to focus on smallest first step goal to not get paralyzed with bigger goal
** Julien feels it’s not his project, and would like to recruit Mariano back to support with work :)
** Mikael was wondering if there could have been new-volunteer issue with task ownership, Julien feels good enough to continue
** Nick will send a short recap about trustroots hackweek going online-only
** discussion about formatting, simple plain HTML is fine (or start with markdown and convert), for more complex layouts, need email clients don’t support much HTML so need to use “email-specific” templates, mailtrain has some features for this if desired, but needs some learning
** importance of having proper footer (see existing trustroots emails, or templates in mailtrain)
** need unsubscribe link (link to settings)
** mention that possible we are getting more problems with being seen as spam so have to be careful about it
* non-binary followup (Nick)
** two possible steps we discussed previously that we could do after the storm dies down (which it has by now)
*** contacting the weblate people to let them know what happened (Mikael)
*** me (Nick) personally wanted to share/warn/inform a wider set of people about this incident (contributing to the public/wider debate on such topics)
**** Nick will write personally on his mastodon, and possible a blog post in the future follows, Mikael was interested in finding out if anybody has any tips
** Weblate thread: https://hosted.weblate.org/translate/trustroots/users/nb_NO/?&amp;offset=38#comments
* meta: call structure/rhythm (Nick)
** does the timing still work, nick is wanting to have other people to help co-ordinating/facilitating the call
** … we went into discussions of the role/purpose of the board, legal responsiblities, etc…
