** Chagai expressed that things are a bit stagnant now, in terms of volunteering and community engagement.
***Hlib said he was working on internationalization features for the site, including translation.  
***As an experiment, we will create a general WhatsApp group that Chagai will moderate and get more "noise" happening. Shawn will begin to publish on the social channels relevant content to stimulate the community and display what Trustroots is.  
***Chagai suugests more testers are needed for these features
** Locations of Members Discussion/flag (Shawn)
* Future Trustroots Hackathon was brought up. We know it can happen outside Turin, Italy hosted by Martin. Travel is restricted so while a Hackathon that brings everyone in person together may not be able to happen, Hlib suggested a hybrid version of a Hackathon, whereby some in Europe can come together and some can join virtually during the same time. Shawn can help facilitate some ideation exercises and human centered design exercises. Mid to Late December was suggested by Shawn as a potential date as people go into the holiday season off work.  
***The exact location of members displayed on the site has been brought up as a privacy issue to some potential members Shawn has evangelized
***Chagai has brought forth the issue to Github for further introspection.
