Minutes:

Status of group registration on libera.chat (bronsen)

• hackerspaces.org/.well-known proof is in place, waiting on libera staff
• => still WIP
• => bronsen will poke staff for an update

Promoting Spaceapi (zeno4ever)

• more hackerspaces should use and provide data for https://spaceapi.io/
• we have no idea what keeps them from using spaceapi
• How can we convince spaces to do adopt spaceapi:
• find or develop a small hardware project (microcontroller with button) to easily update a spaces open/close status
  • => interim results to be discussed at next meeting (2021-08-08)
• incorporate into the hackerspace in a box starter kit(tm)
• ask spaceapi.io people if they have propaganda material such as videos, or if they would be willing to hold a talk about spaceapi at $some_conferences
  • one such talk: https://media.ccc.de/v/cosin-27-the_spaceapi_and_why_your_hackerspace_should_implement_it
  • recent blog post https://hackaday.com/2021/06/18/do-you-spaceapi/
• some spaces do use spaceapi
• spaces on the hso wiki can set a spaceapi property, in addition to the directory of spaceapi.io
• directory list is 'curated', what are the 'rules' to get approved/denied on the directory list. Zeno4ever will ask.
