** Franklin R910 or Cool Pad?
** https://www.sprint.com/en/shop/hotspots/franklin-r910-mobile-hotspot.html?ensembleId=FRKR910KIT&contractName=0-yr-ib&deviceQuantity=1&plan=pln10780002prd&protectionPlan=1100264
*** External antenna plugs
*** People have been hacking these for a while: https://github.com/logich/r910
*** We have to call mobile citizen to get a code, then access a secret menu to unlock usb tethering: https://www.reddit.com/r/Calyx/comments/7ofbjb/r910_sucks/

** https://www.sprint.com/en/shop/hotspots/coolpad-surf-hotspot.html?ensembleId=CP332ABLK&contractName=0-yr-ib&deviceQuantity=1
*** The main selling point of the Cool Pad seems to be 600 MHz support but Sprint doesn't have 600 MHz support
*** It doesn't have external antenna connectors.
*** Unknown if it does USB tethering
*** Unknown how reliable it is
* send out self-dealing resolution loomio thread @tunabananas
* fiber internet via sonic or at&t at omni? @jmg @null
** No LMI fiber, only AT&T + Sonic fiber
** We should ask other Omni collectives about getting Sonic fiber, which would cost more (from $150 -> $300)
* Quarterly reports
** @eenblam: got sidetracked with travel/work this month. I'd like to keep making progress on this, but there's also less pressure to get this done by end-of-quarter.
** Github Repo: https://github.com/sudomesh/quarterlies - for human touch, taking notes throughout the quarter
** benny: I'm happy to help dump my brain a bit about how to gather some of the info and set up a few things, but don't want to bottom line this
** mai: also down to help
** jnny: also down to help and could take a leaderly role on this one
** eenblam: thx! I'll give it another look and reach out

* juul: I started learning about wireguard. Want to get a wireguard setup for our archive.org server and start adding support to librerouter.
** eenblam - hmu
* juul: I want to set up a dialup server and client and make a link from a payphone with an acoustic coupler, who wants

**benny: i wanna be a resource for u

* jnny:

** services ideating, perhaps reigniting http://mycelia.cc

* mai: dweb camp
** promote people's open - filmmaker wants to interview us about PON
** blog post / social media posts about dweb camp
** pretty much super busy working on putting on the event
** archive mesh hack: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/all-day-hackathon-for-dweb-camp-tickets-63718679285

* tentative: does anyone wish to be compensated for work this month? Might require either scheduling a board meeting, or just you stepping down from board.
** eenblam: Jenny mentioned an issue with compensating board members that wasn't addressed at last board meeting
** mai: only is a problem is there's some significant % of board members who are being compensated so it's not a pressing issue yet
*** @mai jenny had more info after the fact
**** right, board needs to sign a self-dealing resolution for any compensation to a director. will draft and post on loomio for myself, and we can use that as a model @tunabananas
** eenblam: for whatever work needs compensation, then we need to go through a different process for approving it from the board, if they are a board member. If someone wants to get paid to many project over a certain period, then maybe they should just not be on the board?
** jenny: this only applies when you go over the independent contract limit ($600/year) in which you need to send a 1099. So for small amounts we can just sign these Self-Dealing documents for those one-off cases
** jenny: will ask jesse when he gets back about the details of this

* tom: plan is to attend more meetings and get a sense of what's happening
** down to do time-capped tasks if other people think of them

== Discussion Item: Meta Meeting Conversation ==
* Active Projects in Trello
** Good way to keep track of progress, notes, contact info etc and have some continuity
** As well as checklists!
** If there's no progress on projects in a month, it should go into Blocked column or moved to another board
** Can also add a Due Date, if it makes sense to, so that it's obvious when a card is obsolete, even if incomplete.
** there're Trello integrations for syncing cards between boards, jenny will explore
