nrcernaHello Everyone! :-)16:00
AndreiHello!16:00
jelknerGooood morning!16:00
lelkneralfarohi16:00
SITarabutaHellos.16:00
abuchholzGood day!16:00
nrcerna:-)16:01
nrcernaOkay, let's start!16:01
nrcernafirst item: Managing accounts for US Tech Worker Coops16:01
SITarabutaAlright so:16:01
SITarabutaWe have spam account on US Tech Worker Coops; not good16:01
jelknerWe need a process to keep spammers out.16:02
jelknerSo let's think about that.16:02
SITarabutaOne of them being Official_KMSpico - tool used for pirating Windows16:02
jelknerThat could be one topic for discussion at Show-and-Tell this week.16:02
SITarabutaUnfortunately (and fortunately) anyone can register on the website16:02
jelknerYeah, simple solution is to require approval16:03
SITarabutaSo unless we manually manage the accounts, I am not sure of a different way.16:03
SITarabutaOr that16:03
SITarabutaIf the system allows it16:03
abuchholzI think the approval of accounts makes sense16:03
jelknerLet's look into it.16:03
abuchholzor a Captcha though that's not really a solution16:03
jelknermore discussion after in BBB16:03
SITarabutareCAPTCHA by Google ;-)16:03
abuchholzThey came out with version 316:04
abuchholzits really cool16:04
SITarabutaACTION done?16:04
nrcernaGood16:04
SITarabutaACTION thinks he's done.16:04
nrcernanext item: What is going on with Freenode? 16:04
SITarabutaWell this discussion could not be compressed into an IRC chat16:04
jelknerAnyone who hasn't read ubuntourist's emails should16:05
SITarabutaBut basically Freenode is privately owned and the new owner is doing "interesting" stuff16:05
jelkneri talked with SITarabuta in our pre-meeting discussion16:05
SITarabutaWe should probably move to OFTC (Libera.chat is also an option - just putting it out there)16:05
jelkneri would like to propose that, *if* ubuntourist and SITarabuta are in agreement16:05
SITarabutaBut OFTC is used by Debian16:05
SITarabutaand Debian is cool16:05
jelknerwe move to OFTC16:05
abuchholzLibera.chat is also newer16:06
abuchholzand was rushed to be set up16:06
jelknerubuntourist already registered #novawebdev there16:06
abuchholzso maybe we want to go with something that has been around for a little while16:06
jelkner+116:06
nrcernaOk16:06
SITarabutaWell it seems like people like OFTC. Can others weigh in? I know it is a bit of a blind-choice16:06
abuchholzwe also would have to discuss what do with with novawebdev_learn16:06
SITarabutabut it would be good to know16:06
SITarabutaabuchholz It will move as well after the school year ends16:07
SITarabutaand it will become #novawebdev-learn16:07
SITarabuta(notice the dash)16:07
jelknerabuchholz: for the rest of the school year, *leave it be*!16:07
jelknerthen we can take it down16:07
jelknerACTION done16:07
abuchholzmakes sense16:07

SITarabutagood to know16:10
SITarabutaAlright16:10
SITarabutaso this is one is not as important as it sounds16:10
SITarabutaBut I made this spreadsheet which members could use to see if we can generate enough revenue in a month16:10

jelkneri'll sign us on16:12
jelkner+116:12
nrcerna+116:13
jelknerany questions, SITarabuta?16:13
SITarabutaIf I understand correctly, in order to get a small business loan from SBA someone with more than 20% of ownership would have to guarantee16:13
SITarabutaIf this goes through, that would change?16:13
jelknernot sure16:13
jelkneror two people16:13
jelknerregardless of the details, the fact that we get legislation with "cooperative" in the title is good for us16:14
SITarabutaQuote: "In the case of cooperatives, the one member, one vote structure of cooperatives precludes them from accessing this money (at least without a single individual, with a small ownership share, volunteering to put up the collateral)."16:14
SITarabutaSounds like a good thing to me16:15
jelknerindeed16:15
jelknerboth the USFWC and NCBA are asking coops to sign on16:15
jelknerACTION done16:16
SITarabutaWell16:16
SITarabuta"Within 180 days of the bill signed into law, requires SBA to amend criteria for cooperative businesses to qualify for loan guarantees."16:16
SITarabuta+116:16
jelknerCool16:16
jelknermore on this in later meetings16:16
nrcerna+116:16
