maintenance is coming! We'll start upgrading the Mastodon instance next Monday. I'll publish an announcement soon.

@ntnsndr OK to turn up a VPS in digital ocean and incur some additional cost? I'm general, could the [[twg]] get an experiment allowance? Happy to write a proposal but I'd rather go for a dynamic setup up to a threshold (e.g. 50 monthly, although this will be much less) instead of having to write them all the time :)

@edsu @protean @Matt_Noyes FYI

@flancian @ntnsndr @edsu @protean This should go to the TWG first then to a vote of the membership.

@Matt_Noyes @flancian @edsu @protean really?

This is why we should move to fixed discretionary budgets for WGs. They should not need to get membership votes for reasonable expenses like this.
Would it be temporary or permanent?

@Matt_Noyes @flancian @edsu @protean can we use this opportunity (and that riseup doc I made) to sketch out what a reasonable allowance would be for each WG?

@Matt_Noyes @ntnsndr @edsu @protean @flancian
as a long time friend of and new member of this cooperative I am so grateful for the flexibility, diligence, and thoughtful work that supports this instance.

Thanks!

Nathan Schneider

@christina @Matt_Noyes @edsu @protean @flancian Well, the influx of new members has been a welcome motivation to clean up house on some things we have not been so good on over the years:)
