1. Last week review
write down some words or a paragraph about stuff you did related to the project
2. Up this week
write down what you want to do for the project in the next days
take care that emails keep working (Tilmann)
actually fix the remaining bugs from the Quasar upgrade (Tilmann)
get user feedback from Nijmegen (Janina)
discuss on the vision pull request (Tilmann, Janina, Bruno)
3. Discussion
project-related topics that you’d like to discuss with other participants. Positions and outcomes should be noted down
How to go forward with email sending?
maybe Sparkpost sponsors us
if not, then fall back to Mailgun with 10.000 free emails per month (but needs some fiddling with status webhooks)
if 10.000 emails/month is not enough anymore:
ask other providers for sponsorship
pay some money
roll out our own email sending thing, possibly benefitting other projects too
try to reduce number of emails
make people use the app and don’t send emails to them anymore
generally send less emails → better notification settings!
Sandro wrote in #karrot-dev if he could do his master’s thesis on the Karrot trust system
In which direction should the trust system evolve? More hierarchy, more flat…? What’s the lowest common denominator of group hierarchies?
Talks about conflict resolution feature: seems “heavy” because it seems so final; but could also be just removing them temporarily

1. Last week review
write down some words or a paragraph about stuff you did related to the project
set up postal.karrot.world and replace SparkPost with it (Tilmann)
split VISION.md into vision and roadmap part and merged it (Tilmann, Janina)
trust graph analysis (John, Tilmann)
2. Up this week
write down what you want to do for the project in the next days
make some statistics about which kind of emails get sent out frequently and which notification settings are enabled (Tilmann)
go through our hypotheses and talk with John; also check his research scripts (Tilmann)
document current email setup (Tilmann)
progress with remaining Quasar upgrade bugs (Tilmann)
ask some people in Solikyl why and how they use the trust system (Bruno)
3. Discussion
project-related topics that you’d like to discuss with other participants. Positions and outcomes should be noted down
There is some good data about trust but no hypothesis was used to analyse it. Some of the ideas we discussed:
People who are more active in Karrot (and in the physical world) get more trust?
Are people with lots of trust anxious if people with less trust get the same rights as them?
Are people with lots of trust more likely to receive even more trust, especially from newcomers?
Reciprocity is strong: those who give trust expect trust back, and those who get trust feel they should give it back?
Invite by e-mail vs application
it should be more visible if the person was invited by e-mail or applied to the group. But not really many people use the invitation feature (mostly when starting a group?)

3. Discussion
project-related topics that you’d like to discuss with other participants. Positions and outcomes should be noted down
Sandro’s masters thesis
he really likes django and has worked with python a lot over the last years
would be great if he could find something to contribute to karrot because he finds it useful
doesn’t have to be about the trust system
hopefully Karrot is suitable for a CS masters program since it’s not super challenging from a technical POV
UX/UI stuff is tricky and uni Ulm apparently has a focus on psychology as well, but those things are painful…
Sandro would like to have a walkthrough for the backend to know better what he could work on
Bruno suggests public places for Sandro to work on - the detailed concept is still unclear

could use BrowserStack or Saucelabs to test Karrot in virtual iPhones
How to use “Karrot money”?
Nick wants to work out some ideas on how to use it, based on solidarity

3. Discussion
think about a more streamlined foodsaving worldwide onboarding process
make it more welcoming for people who are looking for “foodsharing”
merge resources (foodsaving.world, foodsaving.today, community forum, foodsharing.de international working group)
design a step-by-step process, e.g.
join community forum
create Karrot group
gather some people
save food!
save all other stuff
idea: make a Karrot promontional video with contributions from all groups
things like “We’re saving food in Warszawa with Karrot”
idea: a monthly foodsaving worldwide call; more people might be interested than in a Karrot call

foodsaving worldwide emails
not really getting answered right now
idea to setup an autoresponder to tell them to go to community.karrot.world #introductions

*@foodsaving.world
foodsaving@yunity.org
international-foodsharing@foodsharing.network (maybe? also harder to setup autoresponder for…)
January hack/meet-time? When? (nick)
tilmann/janina - whole of january,
sandro - 3rd week of january
bruno - talk to partner… bring franz or not? quite flexible, worst case a friday->monday block
nick - 3rd or 4th week
Kanthaus has a building week from 12th to 19th, might be a bit busier then: Wuppweek | Kanthaus
maybe 18th - 26th (with last weekend as “main” weekend if only arriving there)

3. Discussion
Hackweek?
Do we need/want to keep Github?
using github is indirectly supporting fascism · Issue #1043 · yunity/karrot-frontend · GitHub
Do we need to switch? This touches the big topic of ‘what to do make the world a better place?’… Our mission is not to avoid every dubious product or company, but to build software and promote sharing.
[Tilmann] Maybe we should write down in the Karrot readme the tradeoffs we are choosing, e.g. using proprietary, centralized platforms
[Bruno] It could also be in the “about” section on the website
