Notes

Funding

  • Note that Cloudron.io has referral links that give people "free credits" for installing on Linode, DigitalOcean, netcup, UpCloud, and Vultr. Might be worth investigating for Sandstorm.
  • Dan Krol can take point on contacting companies
  • Will need entity before they're interested in paying
  • Should probably put this off until we have development going

Org structure

  • SFC is probably a no go short term; acquiring stuff from a business is complicated.
  • Need to check in with Lyre re: opencollective.

What people are working on

Adam

  • will look into GitHub actions thing
    • try to get app key and or current SPK for GitWeb Pages from Asheesh
    • post status update to list by Wednesday
  • Would love to be given some structured time/project to hack on

Jacob

  • trying to port Datasette
    • Will email the list with his error message
  • play with TinyTinyRSS update

Ian

  • Cron PR still going, questions re: testing for Kenton
  • Working on OAuth demo

Kenton

What’s your sandstorm itch?

  • Adam and Ian think it might be neat to run Perkeep in sandstorm.
  • Adam: RSS (with rssbridge or something)
  • Ian: public Calendars
  • Dan K: Wekan imports

Platform enhancement ideas

  • Standard file manager app
  • "Stateless" grains that don't need to be created, just part of the app
  • "Subordinate" that are owned by other grains
    • Relatedly: grains creating other sandboxes.
