- 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
- https://www.sprint.com/en/shop/hotspots/coolpad-surf-hotspot.html?ensembleId=CP332ABLK&contractName=0-yr-ib&deviceQuantity=1
- 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

- 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
- @mai jenny had more info after the fact
- 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
