Mission

The mission of the core team is to steer Gratipay as a whole in pursuit of our overall mission: to cultivate an economy of gratitude, generosity, and love.

TIL

Thus, if you want to be neutral between free software and open source, and clear about them, the way to achieve that is to say “FLOSS,” not “FOSS.”

I renamed the legal repo to legal-tor-ekeland to scope it to our attorney-client relationship with Tor Ekeland, P.C. I did this because we have a new legal matter (related to bringing back take-what-you-want) that we should pursue with a different lawyer, and it seemed appropriate not to mix the two relationships. I've created a new legal-undefined repo, which I'll rename once I figure out who we're going to use. I'll check here before I commit to spending money. We had to pay a $2,500 retainer for Tor Ekeland. Not sure how this one will play out ...

Alright! We've got a big month this month:

• Marketing: The OpenSource.com article (submit article to OpenSource.com #551) got split into two parts. We're aiming for Part 1 next Tuesday, May 10. The PyOhio CFP deadline (go to PyOhio 2016 #574) is May 15. On the 17th, I leave for France (go to OuiShare Fest 2016 #314, Changaco and whit537 finally meet? #464)! 🇫🇷
• Product: We're aiming to land takes for Team Gratipay in Gratipay 206, next week, May 12. We don't need this before Part 1 of submit article to OpenSource.com #551, but we do really want it before France.
• Tech: !m @clone1018 and @rohitpaulk for holding down the payday fort.💃 This month is our big test! Can Gratipay survive with @whit537 offline? 😳
