Vegas Team Meeting Notes FEBRUARY 20 2020:

+ NEW BUSINESS

ewyatt: - We have a ton of the old "This is what a Tor supporter looks like" shirts and a ton of OONI shirts, and not a lot of space to store them. What should we do with them? * Can we give them away at the networking event in SF and NY? Yes in SF, no in NY. * We need to figure out how to build a stock in Europe for events there so we can sell there too.

gus: - Totem project invited Tor Project to build some online courses for their platform. * Gus will follow up with them to see how we can collaborate.
