21:21 <~jokeefe> Platform
21:21 <~jokeefe> We were last working on
        https://etherpad.pp-international.net/p/MAPPCryptoNFT
21:24 <~jokeefe> haven’t had a chance to update it in light of
        srevilak’s suggestion
21:27 < Joe> I made some updates at the end, you like?
21:29 <~jokeefe> nice change
21:31 < Joe> Ty
21:33 < Joe> It looks good to me.  Motion to accept?
21:34 <~jokeefe> Still focuses more on what we are against than what we
        are for
21:34 < srevilak> I'd like to propose a change: Blockchain technologies
        are fraud futures.  Change "blockchain tech" -> cryptocurrency
21:35 < srevilak> (Had a very long night of deliberations and votes on
        a town board last night.  Brain is still slightly mushy.)
21:36 <~jokeefe> that sounds find, srevilak, though we have three
        paragraphs that start with Cryptocurrencies/y
21:36 <~jokeefe> s/find/fine/g
21:37 < srevilak> Good point - merged that into one of the other
        paragraphs
21:43 <~jokeefe> thanks
21:44 <~jokeefe> do the changes address your concerns srevilak?
21:45 < srevilak> I think that's good
21:46 <~jokeefe> any other changes needed?
21:46 < Joe> I like it.
21:47 <~jokeefe> malt?
21:48 <~jokeefe> Changed the first sentence of the last paragraph to:
        By decentralizing technologies, the focus can be on autonomy, resilience,
        protocols over products, and exercising our ability to tinker and improve>
21:50 <~jokeefe> Actually: By decentralizing technologies, the focus can
        be on autonomy, resilience, protocols over products, and exercising our
        ability to tinker and create.
21:50 < srevilak> That's good
21:52 <~jokeefe> All in favor of adopting this text?
