was supposed to not work on mmt this week but ended up having to spend some time on payments and wallet setup

### Comms Check-in
*We said we wanted to check in on how comms is working for us each week.*

Alanna: I'm just checking the ssb #mmt channel... don't know if I'm missing other stuff

Kieran: just been using ssb some, have been traveling. Haven't looked at keybase in quite a while. Things seem ok.

Peg: I think at the moment we have to assume if we didn't put it on ssb, then people might not have read it. But I get email notifications for the other things.

Phonebox: Is reading 1/2 times a week. not comfortable speaking there (in public channels). It's mainly about control about who follows me and anonymity being out of their hands.

Mix:
- all going well
- you can right click on messages to get a link if you'd like to reference it in a private message

## Agenda Items

### 0. Phonebox

phonebox reporting back about their time and possible future

original loomio: https://www.loomio.org/d/kO3LiMcD/founders-of-the-workers-coop/46

phonebox:
- has been taking the role of communicating things which feel uncomfortable or might bear critical engagement
- Noticed others in group stepping in on many practical points that come. Perhaps it would be good to review that role.
- seeks input on how that could go

mix:
- sounds like it could be interesting to capture some reflections about what that hat is
- perhaps we could all learn from wearing that hat, and I wonder if you're interested in wearing other hats too

alanna:
- I'd love to hear what you're excited about doing

kieran:
- what would you like to contribute / what skills would you like to bring to this space

danh:
- have really appreciated your input
- are you interested in coming along for more of the journey?

phonebox:
- to go away and write up some thoughts
- to evaluate challenges and think abut ways could help clarify direction

mix:
- feels like you add a set of experiences which I haven't experienced would like to know that better.

dan:
- where should we send thoughts?

phonebox:
- private msg on ssb or keybase
