Lex showed some logo designs. Skyler will photograph t-shirt design and send to Lex.

Lucas will send out the poll to massmesh riseup list. JamesO will signal boost in weekly email/matrix.

James followed up on incorporation. Will drop by friend's house this week.

Compared Open Collective with Action Network. Poked around and decided on Action Network. Skyler will work on expanding it and will send out the first announcement email.

Trolls disrupted our video chat. Moved to another Jitsi room and enabled lobby. Will need to turn on security at the start of the session or find something else.
