Sarah emailed Joe, waiting for confirmation sufficient power available in the server room
Joe indicated we may need to pay for technician to attend when we install, we can cover that.
Solarpunk Meetups
Third Weds of every month
Jade’s Neighbourhood First Software talk (for the Everything Open event in Canberra) would make a good option for the kick off meeting, followed by something interactive
The Adaptation Game: there are funds available, at a later stage
18 Feb will be the first one. At Balam Balam.

Jade and Wade will set something up
Setting up LoRes nodes
The assumption has been new participants with nodes will have Linux but not everyone is running Linux
Wade suggests a techie and non-techie sit down and work through the documentation. Wade and Maggie to address through that together
Updating Wikipedia in future – pass around thumbdrives instead of downloading Zims; as a first step, a blank thumbdrive can work, but QWix will be empty.
LoRes node set up at Balam Balam: Jade envisages that the node should run on a VPS on the server for now.
Down the track, we can look at a RPi to run from radio instead of via Internet
Website updates
Expression of interest form on the website doesn’t work - Simon will fix that
