10:38:34	 From Duncan Crowley, Lisbon (Via Dublin, with a bit of West Clare..) : C02 emissions on the weather.. asking met eireann to do it.. we could do it..

10:40:45	 From Jeff Caselden / Dublin 8 : I can’t help feeling there’s not only a need for grassroots efforts in our communities, educating and enlightening others, but also creating some sort of political action too.

10:44:49	 From Jeff Caselden / Dublin 8 : Great question, @Declan. Obviously this has to somehow  touch on the financial aspects given that’s primarily how we make decisions. It feels to me like we have to get people thinking more systemically, as all we do now is address symptoms versus the root of our problems.
10:45:51	 From Duncan Crowley, Lisbon (Via Dublin, with a bit of West Clare..) : ECOLISE was created to bridge the movements, if you wish to join, just get your group to apply, if you agree with the post-growth regenerative shared vision.

10:49:37	 From Deirdre Lane  : https://twitter.com/donaldaly Is builing an energy app awareness for communities he would be a great one to work with
10:49:37	 From Jeff Caselden / Dublin 8 : Love that, @Clare.

10:50:58	 From Clare Dillon - Dublin : Great @Jeff - there is a hot discussion in the Open Source community right now about how VC investment can work against Open Source principles - and how to change that system.
10:51:58	 From Brad Macpherson - Co. Wicklow : Wool's been languishing for 20, 30 years - unjustly - I remember the wool stockpiles in Fremantle from the 80s.

10:53:58	 From Brad Macpherson - Co. Wicklow : Funding OS development has been a sticky problem for a long time. Contributors have tended in the past to skew towards white men lucky enough to have employers willing to allow them work on "side projects". Only really started to improve recently, but slowly.

10:58:55	 From Brad Macpherson - Co. Wicklow : Discord if self-hosted could be a goer, otherwise it's tying in to one firm's IP. I'm biased towards open standards like XMPP or IRC myself.

11:02:22	 From Jeff Caselden / Dublin 8 : Loving the idea of a larger mapping exercise, a deeper session, perhaps that could even be a bit open conference style with a few breakout areas. 13th could work for me. Sadly have to drop off but great to see you all!
11:02:57	 From Irene Co. Kerry : Great to see the breadth and depth of different experiences in this meeting. I'm really excited for change in Ireland, and would be keen to join the meeting on Saturday the 13th of Feb.
11:03:17	 From Brad Macpherson - Co. Wicklow : Satruday 13th would suit me. I'm not wedded to a particular social networking tool, although I'm strongly allergic to Teams and Facebook. Happy to help on the techie nerd side for the mapping exercise too.
