= Agenda =

* how to do online hackweek!
** https://codi.kanthaus.online/hackweek?edit
** Visual studio code sharing might be a good tool
*** https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/services/live-share/
** use a audio chat: mumble? discord?
*** Give discord a try
** having a schedule or agenda for the hackweek -&gt; create wiki page for agenda (@Abel)
** engagement of volunteers / newcomers
*** Setting up a welcome session for newcomers
** set goals for the hackweek
*** filter out from hackweek pad, and send another message to new volunteers with these goals
*** have 1 or more people that can be contacted about the goals to get more info
** shared working sessions (before hackweek, about hackweek, etc...)
*** late morning of 31st march? -&gt; slack
* translations (mrkvon)
** https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/trustroots -&gt; there are already some transtaltions being done -&gt; ask Michal
** Clarify who is managing that weblate instance
** Other technologies can be OK
** We should find a translation monitor / coordinator
** Note: translations can be difficult to mantain and coordinate in the long-term. It can be energy taking and that energy could go to somewhere else.
** fresh update: Weblate just said is up and we are ready to go!
* survey findings (Abel)
** References is a highly demanded feature
** other demands:
*** better comunication in tribes
*** better meeting feature
*** reply directly from email to messages
* References
** More inventive approach than classical networks
** let people know that references is not a clear mark of safety.
** idea of making network from contacts (e.g. showing contacts of contacts - https://github.com/Trustroots/trustroots/issues/805)
** (the mega issue https://github.com/Trustroots/trustroots/issues/718)
** Abel will try to sum up all the input before the hackweek and present a session about it in the hackweek.
** Maybe, Mikael could try to write down the reference idea?
* open-source chat? -&gt; alternative to Slack
** Make a list / roadmap of tools we are using -&gt; Nick
** Consider privacy-invaders services and closed source tools we are using
** maybe can write an answer at https://www.trustroots.org/faq/technology
** Slack might be a bad showcase and we can't know that some ppl might be willing to contribute but get desmotivated when they see they need to use Slack to join
** Ask Mikael's opinion on this
** Abel offers himself to see if we could have a hosted RocketChat by RocketChat and try it out.
* blog updating
** Note: survey respondants didn't find it very important. It might be because there's already not much content though
** Would be nice to add more content on it
** Mariano would like to help.
** Tackle it on the hackweek. Maybe even only philosophical talks
* shadowan feature
** it's partly done but it needs some fixes.
** https://github.com/Trustroots/trustroots/issues/1184
* Kanban github for triaging issues
** Use it for the hackweek. (also great to visualize progress)
