Agenda

• Node notes:

  • NodeBrunner -- swapped in a fixed up Linksys E8450 with a corrected, modern bootloader for ap3

  • NodePatch -- ditto for ap1

  • NodeKlickitat -- ditto for ap floor1

  • NodeAnnapurna -- Ole Ersson hasn't answered email about Umpqua Bank grant. Give up on application this round?

• The two vulnerable E8450 devices spontaneously OKD'd (OpenWrt Kiss of Death) after being swapped out, so the replacement was timely.

• Russell rejiggers paypal to connect to OnPointCU account, rather than defunct US Bank account, moved $8.82 of PTP donations into OnPointCU account.
• We may be receiving Futel Patreon funds into our paypal account, we need to be diligent about allocating those funds properly
• There was also some secondary conversation about using our donation link, with a tag to annotation Futel donations, not today's problem.

• ChrisBushick might visit to talk about City of Portland drone policy and the like.

• Talked about uses of donated 1Gbps radio link at 60GHz. Reach out to Ole? Wait for StreetRoots to get back to us?

• Russell bought some PoE splitters to play with.

Notes

• Provided W9 and EIN to AfroVillage for tax purposes

• Node notes:
  • swapped out multiple E8450 nodes with fixed OpenWRT, are there other locations with shelves that would support this

• Paypal page for deposit, annotate for FuTel posts (copy our posts to FuTel site)

  • also we need to take out 5% fiscal sponsorship when we transfer their funds to OnPoint

• FuTel Patreon funds also will be transferred via Paypal, not urgent, unsure about process/automation

• Russell bought 3 PoE splitters (barrel connector power breakout)
