== Call to Order ==
 
Board members present: Ralph, Eddie, Matthew, Peter, Arc
 
== Returning Business ==
 
=== IETF MIMI WG / MLS / DMA ===
 
* finding common ground with Matrix might not work out in practice
* Matrix protocol requirements are different from anything else
* federation with two competing s2s protocols would be difficult
* gateways would be ncessary if we don't have a common s2s protocol
* would be either XMPP or Matrix (or define a new protocol * silly!)
 
=== MLS ===
 
* we need to define an MLS profile for XMPP
* some work has been happening
  * people from the Dino team (Rafael, etc.)
  * Daniel has said he can assist, too
  * Matthew is in touch with them
  * Peter volunteers to help
  * AI: Matthew to start email thread with the relevant parties
* one requirement in DMA is that if there's e2e then it should not be degraded
* but it should be optional
 
=== Editor Team update ===
 
* Kev has processed some issues and worked on some tooling
* scripts to review PRs and publish
* can be run locally
* publish to Docker registry
* bulk of the work now is doing all the triage (also a script for that)
* just doing the triage makes the other tasks trivial
* Peter has more cycles now to help
 
== New Business ==
 
=== Infrastructure Team ===
 
* Jonathan is working on mailman etc.
* Edwin can restore DNS
 
=== sponsorships ===
 
* we've always worked on a small budget
* haven't been assertive about seeking sponsors
* most past sponsors have been software vendors in the XMPP space
* we could also seek out grants from large organizations
  * example: https://sovereigntechfund.de/en/
  * Eddie created brainstorming pad at https://pad.nixnet.services/K-DVXLFUSxaF4liewf0Smw#
* what would we need / want to spend money on?
 
=== marketing ===
 
* Facebook account?
* Reddit account?
* Ludovic created those
* we could create our own accounts
 
=== license for website content ===
 
* https://github.com/xsf/xmpp.org/issues/407
* should be straightforward
 
=== Inlaws podcast ===
 
* Ralph or Matthew should do it
 
=== Meetings ===
 
* Eddie and Peter to coordinate
 
=== SCAM ===
 
* The team has budget
* Board approval not needed for expenses within that budget
