The yunity heartbeat - what has each team done, what are they doing and what do they need help with.
...
Just to make it clear: We don't plan on abandoning the train station in Bad Dürrenberg! It's actually the contrary, because since we are so many people with different skills, interests and dreams, we think we now can do more than one project at once! Spain would be only temporary anyways - and as part of the FSINT/FSWW tours it's not even new... - and it could replenish the energy of the people wupping in the first ever acquired WuppHaus with all the nice sunshine and Mediterranean flair it would provide. Wurzen is just as far from Leipzig as Badue is, just on the east instead of the west and could thus serve as a base for the people working on rebuilding the train station, too. Berlin WuppDays are always great opportunities to recruit people who are not too far away to also lend a hand in Badue... 
...
Wurzen: Since Badue obviously is a long-term construction project and some of us feel the great urge to have a more functional, ready and - let's face it - clean WuppHouse at hand soon, the quest for other buildings had never stopped. Now we found a great possibility in Wurzen, where two houses are for sale. A handful of us are seriously considering using money to buy them and gift them to the movement. This would require setting up a legal entity like a Verein and set out in writing how we want to live together. Preparations are already underway, stay tuned for more updates on this topic!
WuppDays XXL: In late April we have to the opportunity to use a huge compound in eastern Berlin for an assembly of people who are interested in yunity and the general kind of change yunity stands for. The planning just started, so it's not too late for you to join in! Just write us an email, if you're interested!

- Password reset: you can now get a new temporary password if you forgot yours. It will be sent to your verified mail address (
GitHub) - Mail verification: to make sure that you enter the right mail address and can receive mails from the tool, we send you a verification code after creating a new account
- Password change: you can change your password on your user profile page, by clicking the edit button (the pencil)
- Groups can be protected via password. If someone wants to enter a protected group, they have to prove their secret knowledge first
- Groups have a public and an internal description. The public description is shown before joining the group and could contain a link to a community website, whereas the internal description should provide members with the most up-to-date information (GitHub)
- Show a (big) loading bar when the page is exchanging data with the server (GitHub)
- Some hotfixes

There have been first meetings and talks about how to use Taiga and a core group of Taiga users assembled around Paul Free to organize the tasks popping up in Badue as well as the revision of the onboarding process in yunity via Taiga. More on the topic of onboarding can be read in the newfound chapter of the same name.

Taiga is in the process of being implemented as an organizational tool in yunity. This task requires quite some creativity, since we need to figure out how to make use of its modules and features to fit the whole range of different tasks and topic present in yunity at the moment. Taiga makes extensive use of Scrum language and we still don't know to which extent we want to keep it or what to change it to, but hey... it's all learning by doing, isn't it?
...
- An initial meeting was held in Bad Dürrenberg restarting the important topic of how to integrate interested people into the project.
- Paul Free, Janina Abels, Philip Engelbutzeder and Arno Döpper have commited to be accountable for this task.
- Big differences between online and offline onboarding/wiki/spaces/ARCHIVE/pages/86966402 have been pointed out.
- An epic (that's like a main topic) has been created on Taiga.
- A team page/wiki/spaces/ARCHIVE/pages/86016141 has been created on this wiki.
In Progress
- The automated mails will be updated, revised and the whole process improved.
- The existing information will be restructured to make it easier accessible. This is mainly about the wiki.
...
- How to set up automatically sent out mails with links, that somehow let us know if and which of the links got clicked?
- More people feeling responsible in this regard make it easier to not let anybody fall through the cracks... (Also for holiday replacements and the likes... )

Our team member Joachim Thome has published his Syscon full manual, version 0.1. It already consists of 36 pages, full of examples and how-tos on group decision making and resistance voting. And the sub-zero version number indicates that he intends to add more!
