crowd funding time (again)

Minutes of fossmeet '16 is here.

We are working on a campaign video to show poddery team speaking about the history, progress, achievements and challenges ahead. @praveenarimbrathod and myself we have started working on it; recorded a small part of it.

Idea is to get each one of us in poddery team to share their thoughts on the following questions. Use your webcam or digicam to record this and share in a single location. We can edit and bring it up as a single video of 5 to 10 minutes.

1. Little about what Poddery is and its past. A brief history of events.

2. Events since last funding. What poddery has achieved (better hosting, more users, better location etc).

3. Challenges poddery is facing (continue hosting with current features, rise of active users).

4. Why we think you should help.

I would suggest the team to send their videos within next 2 days. Remember not to exceed 5 minutes. Just to make it as simple and elegant as possible.

I would suggest recording a user perspective too - @arjun can you speak about how Diaspora has influenced you ?

I can but won't be able to send the video.
Connection is horrible here

I have started the campaign draft at https://www.indiegogo.com/campaigns/keep-poddery-com-live-round-2/edit (let me know if you want to help with indiegogo campaign and I'll add you to the team)

We just have 25 days, 13 hours left in our account. @manukrishnantv did we receive the remaining amount from KnightSwarm yet? Can you ask them to credit it so we can refill gandi.net.

@praveenarimbrathod I am very much occupied these days. Have talked with @anisha over phone regarding that. I have initiated a ticket sometime back and they said they can't buy Gandi credits for us, but transfer the amount to an alternate paypal account.

Someone needs to follow up on that. Meanwhile, if I remember correctly, we have some funds from the last crowdfunding campain with SMC too.

Check this: https://blog.scaleway.com/2016/03/08/c2-insanely-affordable-x64-servers/

Its a French company. I am currently running my personal servers with them. Really reliable.

@praveenarimbrathod @manukrishnantv @fayadfami

@anisha this seems 1/5th of gandi.net offer after 40% discount!! They are out of stock and needs an invite. Can you get a server if you have an account already?

I already have account and ability to spawn servers.

@manukrishnantv I have opened a ticket with KnightSwarm to credit it to @sruthi 's paypal account. We already used the amount left with SMC for last purchase with gandi.net

How about an online meet up to work on the indiegogo campaign? I suggest tomorrow night 9pm. Scaleway hosting won't start before April. I have registered with them.
