## Agenda

- Breathe for a minute: Drop in, centre, acknowledge the presence of people in the call :)
- 1-2 minutes Checkins

### Current operational topics:

> (Please indicate what your goals are for each item: info share? request for input? need for next steps?)

- TheRealCommsChannel update:
- Meme-ish strategy for rollout
- Website/Gitbook
- Social media/Email rollout this week/next
- Are diagrams from Miro ready for some visual tweaks so they can be integrated into the gitbook?
- Corporate Structuring update:
- Fundraising vs operations entity
- Fundraising update (how can our approach be resilient to the whims of crypto):
- Slow-burn versus all-in-one-go approach (What seems more appropriate?)
- ICO update: smart contracts/KYC/etc.
- Map-of-maps on this url: https://miro.com/app/board/o9J_l8m-KlM=/
- Resuming NH Credits conversation
- Priorities: Delivering value-stable access to a pool of generic tools. Code contribution to commons, integration, commissioning projects
- Pegging NHC to a time-unit of work?
<Insert url to Miro board>
- DSL/Rep Interchange update?
- Missing pieces pre-fundraise?
- Showcasing widgets (eg: Elemental chat + chat)
- NH Credit paper

- Post-sync chat between pospi and Sid about 'The Hegemony of Non-violence'. Others welcome to stay on and riff.

### Wrap-up (allow 7-10min)

### Minutes and Priorities for the coming week(s)
- RealCommsChannel update:
- Adding couple features to the website: About us, User stories, Engagement options (links to SM, chat, medium etc)
- Open-sourcing the Brand guide (available as a Zip file now)
- Approaching comms through a meme-ish strategy: allowing people to fork/tweak conversations and visuals. Our role will be providing resources in a central location (not creating any official roles, or MLM style push)

- Structuring:
- Setting up Fundraising entity in BVI. To be governed by a holding company, which most likely will be non-profit. Will use simple structures right now. SC likely to continue to be operating entity, also governed by same holding co.

- Fundraising:
- Decision between 'slow-burn' versus 'all-in-one-go'. Final decision may be taken some time in September/October based on momentum. It could be anywhere between 10% to 100% of total supply being made available in credit-issuance.
- This decision unlikely to affect strategy for comms/dev/structuring too much.
- How would we decide the available supply?
- Some kind of estimation of the widgets likely to be developed?
- Leads us to discussion on NH Credits

- NH Credit design:
- Long term aim of the NH Credits is to ensure access to 'generic tools' for communities.
- NH-Credits could be pegged against a unit of time, like 'one human hour'.
- Success would look like a constant 'replenishment of code bases' which means innovation in widget design and maintenance is flourishing
- This is possible since Widgets likely to be blocks of code that can be plugged in with minimal integration. 'Configuration more than integration'
- Market forces could ensure people are constantly coming up with new designs
- We could aid this with a reputation currency that nudges people to 'retire' or 'elder' their code bases to a pool of commons. Reputation currency allows for negative spending limits, so widget-devs could take on more innovative projects
- We could also create a usage-limit on all code-bases which retires them after certain user numbers or time limits are hit.
- Communities of devs could explore using NH Credits to reward contributors. Would bring up important discussions internally about the value of work

## Next steps
- Comms to work on Architecture diagrams + features mentioned above
- Time to piece together the NH Credit paper: once a coherent outline created circulate to 20-30 people?
- Chat about what kind of widgets we would like to showcase for the fundraise?
