"Old" businesses
Bureau Farm (Proxmox cluster)
- Updates: CNM Bureau Farm, Jitsi/Odoo/HumHub, DNS, Educaship pfSense, monitoring -- Telegraf + InfluxDB + Grafana, Uptime Kuma, Passbolt, mail server, LDAP, DNS zone, IPv4, what else to do? HA test, alpha testing, DNS

WSO2 IS
- Updates: Natalia to install WSO2 IS on the CNM Lab Farm and try to plug to Opplet, "A" record
- Discussions:
- Plans: After Educaship WordPress integration, we will look for contractors to plug in other applications.
Lab Farm (non-HA Proxmox)
- Wiki.js, XWiki, docuwiki
Kenya launch
- Gary: Team, because of a few changes, updates and plan changes are as follows:
- Meetings of CNMCyber Community Board are postponed. It looks like Kevin stopped attending our boards, so let's postpone the Community Board until better times come.
- Educaship pitch is now in beta testing. My https://wiki.cnmcyber.com/en/Educaship_pitch sprint is complete. I haven't decided what I will work on next, but whatever it will be, it will be on a new wiki.
- New Wiki. Natalia installed new wiki engines. DocuWiki looks like mobile-friendly MediaWiki. XWiki acts like Confluence, but I couldn't find how to plug it into Educaship GitLab. Wiki.js seems like the application our school students will enjoy the most. Natalia -- may we try to integrate it into Educaship LDAP and migrate our MediaWiki database to our Wiki.js instance?
- New LMS. Natalia, are there any updates on the CanvasLMS project? I plan to use Moodle for the third course, but the first two sound better on another LMS. OpenEdX is, probably, too complex for us for now.
- Dry run for iDosvid is cancelled. My funds are depleting faster than I expected. Thus, I propose to skip the dry run and look at every expense in the nearest future.
- Educaship WordPress. Because of changes in the visa process, I cannot predict when my upcoming trip will be. Since we don't do a dry run, most likely, I have time to work on something. I am thinking about our websites -- at least, they will help our educaship marketing. During our tech board, I propose to discuss that.
- Break through the wall. Natalia enabled experiments with OpenVPN. However, I found at least one place where VPN is blocked, so, technically, encrypted VPN can be recognized and blocked. I would like to play with the Tor browser. Also, Natalia, may you take a look at Shadowsocks? It is regarded as the best solution to our needs at least here -- https://www.howtogeek.com/802198/vpn-alternatives-what-can-you-use-besides-a-vpn/
