Ping Paula re. this. By Martin.
** /teams might be good
Hlib thinks it’s a good idea to have a volunteer info page
Further development of /teams might be good
There’s a donation page (https://www.trustroots.org/donate) that is linked to at the bottom of any given page. Seeing as we don’t accept donations we should probably remove it as well as the links. /Martin A.


Anyone feeling like taking it? Otherwise open an issue for it on GitHub and leave it for now? /Martin A.
*Trustroots Donation page: It needs to be updated seeing as we don't currently accept donations
There are references like Namecheap and DigitalOcean though, so perhaps restructuring rather than deleting? /Martin A.
** Nikki will explore rearranging and condensing the information on the page.  
There’s also https://www.trustroots.org/donate/help and https://www.trustroots.org/donate/policy
** Should the donation page be renamed possibly?  
References are being worked on. I’m writing here to communicate it… maybe there more info on Monday /Loberto


One idea to promote good reference usage is to have a proper campaign educating people:
*Styleguide for Trustroots: Is there one (Nikki K)
** Will ping Mikael about it and to explore possibly creating one.


start with a good blog post about it, shared on all social media
*Idea: If we do accept donations, they could go to funding a Trustroots hackathon somewhere and support travel expenses for those coming.
mention it in our next newsletter
write in the FAQ “References good practices”
write a wiki article about references, why giving a negative reference is not a bad thing
Additional topics/questions


Pick facilitator for next meeting
*There is momentum in working on the reference based system (Now known as "Experiences") on the slack. For those interested to participate in the conversation and development, look at the #experiencedesign channel. Shawn is working on a blogpost to explain and announce the rollout.
