			The Open Tech Fund has two options may work for us:

			* https://apply.opentech.fund/user-experience-discovery-lab/
			* https://apply.opentech.fund/internet-freedom-fund-concept-note/

			The former could be to improve accessibility for something like Sugarizer or Music/Turtle Blocks. The latter is more of a catch all.

			Devin will investigate further.

	=== AWS Update ===		=== AWS Update ===
	* Qixiang started working on FastAPI sometime this week.		.
	* There's nothing to test at the moment.
	* We're currently improving what's been added to the sugar-ai repo.
	* Once Qixiang has something basic, we can test.

	=== ~~HacktoberFest~~ ===		=== Open Tech Funding ===
	~~[How to Participate](https://hacktoberfest.com/participation/#maintainers)~~

	~~=== Cloudflare ===~~
	~~We now have Google Workspace for Sugar Labs. Bernie, Matt Lee (who is advising us re: funding, as well as tech -- former employee at FSF and creator of GNU social), and Devin have access.~~
	~~Devin set up Cloudflare in the hope that we can implement a collaborative approach to DNS updates. I hope it will also avoid single-point-of-failure.~~

	* [video discussion](https://youtu.be/DydO8QWQVP0)
	* Devin is looking for some tech help and for images and quotes.

	~~=== OLPC in Panama ===~~
	The World Bank says Panama is not doing great with their costs/benefits; they spent the largest amounts per student in the region and their education is not doing great. Maybe we can help? Claudia and Devin will speak with Lylian.

	~~=== GSoC Mentor Summit ===~~
	Devin made a lot of connections, which he will continue to follow up on; he presented our work doing video events as part of GSoC; heI participated in as many discussions as possible; shared Music Blocks with another coder doing a music learning tool; he saw Sameer; and it was a relatively inexpensive trip (which is very good). Devin also met a lot of folks at GSoC summit who were like, "I recommend students etc. to Sugar Labs, and I'm so thankful to have a face to the org." Or "oh, that's still going? Great!" and they would ask follow up questions, etc.
