Summary

Payment Processing and Roadmap Discussion
Wendy and Jon discussed issues related to payment processing and the need to find a new way to manage it. They decided to start using the American side of Hubspot to resolve the payment issue, with Jared's assistance. Darren had downloaded all necessary files to rebuild if needed. They also discussed the need to update internal links and identify moved documents. Lastly, Wendy presented a draft roadmap for the upcoming year, which would be updated online for priorities, timelines, and modifications.

Project Timelines and Database Import
The team discussed the roadmap timeline requirements for the CDI project, with Arofan's funding request for $9,000 (setting up the pipeline was part of the request and will be prioritized by the CDI group). The Achim is back on September 11th, and is a key component for this work. The CDI timeline included submitting a package for voting by September 20th, with a webinar planned for October 3rd.

Oliver and Darren discussed the process of importing a database and considered transferring the last two to three years of news into Hubspot. The CV update involved a request for DNS change expected to be functional within 48 hours. Darren planned to make changes to the home page after the redirection from the control recoveries Page was complete.

TC's Roadmap and Prioritization Discussion
Wendy presented a roadmap for TC work and asked for input on what needs to be expanded, changed, or prioritized. Wendy noted that the last cycle of certain product developments would be completed this year. Wendy also mentioned the need to shift focus to tools for assisting with usage and production management. Wendy asked for feedback on prioritizing tasks for this year and identifying any projects that can't be dropped.

updates regarding web site, Hubspot, and docs site.

Wendy and Darren discussed the ongoing work on the Hubspot and the need to reset it with the US side due to address-related issues. Darren confirmed that he had captured all the content to prevent loss. An issue with the docs site was raised by Dan, as the DNS still hadn't been added to the site. (Note this has now been accomplished). Lastly, Wendy brought up the product section, which she and Darren had been working on, and proposed to discuss its progress and vision in the next meeting.

Website Content Organization and Layout
Wendy and Dan discussed the organization and layout of content on their website and Hubspot pages. Wendy expressed a need for a clearer understanding of the flow from website pages to the options set up on the other side (docs and github content). Dan explained that the site would be for people wanting to learn more or technically implement one of the products, and suggested using icons to indicate different types of content. They also discussed the need to wait for a new DNS entry before making links, and the possibility of adding a page with all the versions of a product. The group also needed to decide what content needed to be included and where.

CDI Project Progress and Roadmap
Wendy emphasized the importance of managing ongoing tasks and the potential acceleration of the CDI project. A polished proposal for Eddie was requested, with feedback on the presentation also sought. The team discussed the CDI's roadmap plans, including automation funding and pipeline setup. Issues with CDI 1.0 and 1.1 versions were addressed, with Jeremy advising against releasing multiple incompatible schemas (CDI-101). The conversation ended without any significant decisions or action items, with Darren, Dan, and Oliver offering their availability for future communication.
