We had a Prav mini meetup in yesterday featuring @badrihippo, @ravi, @kishy, and @disaster2life

We worked on getting Prav's financial records organised in a single place, so we can refer to it easily. This will make work easier for the Treasury Team and also enable greater transparency in our reporting

Our original meeting place, Chaayos in Connaught Place, turned out to be too crowded. We instead sat at Andhra Canteen for a couple of hours to kick off the session

After an ice cream break, we went to Café Coffee Day but they were not welcoming and wanted us to order more just for the privilege of sitting down. So we left the place and wrapped up at the bench outside in the infamous Delhi heat

Note to self: bring fully charged laptops next time!

Four people—Badri, Ravi, Disaster, and Kishy—sitting around a table with coffee and laptops. The colourful, decorated walls of Andhra Canteen are visible in the background. The same scene as before, but as a badly angled selfie.

@prav @badrihippo @ravi @disaster2life @kishy Such places expect people to order food as they sit. Food court at a Mall may be more relaxed as the tables are shared by all shopes. I think Center Square Mall at Kochi was fine for us. Last year at Lulu Mall was fine too I think.

@prav @badrihippo @kishy @disaster2life @ravi so cool! all power and support to yall ❤️ I would have loved to be sitting there, it seems like a crazy gang of people.

wanted to share the setup we use at @ntns as well (made by @noteness !). it uses hledger under the hood and a gitops model to manage expenses (people file new issues using an issue template to mark expenses) and theyre automatically added to hledger + validated + the website is updated by a CI action
a screenshot of finances.ntns.in, showing a net position, a transaction count, #members, #receipts. a list of per-member positions and a recent transaction to social.coop is visible.

@xrisk oh thats really cool, weve just started out with standard ledger currently, @badrihippo might be worth looking into?

@disaster2life @xrisk yep if it's ledger backed then that's great!

@badrihippo @disaster2life @xrisk if we can automate this process, that could help reduce the manual effort to keep track of stuff.

@ravi l had asked @xrisk

@codewizard I don't see any mention of Gitea?

The place we were originally planning to meet at is Chaayos, which I assume is a reference to the word "chai' which means "tea"

@ravi @xrisk @kishy @disaster2life @ntns @noteness @prav

@badrihippo we interact more often on Jabber :)))

@codewizard unfortunately, that comes with reduced chances of chai 🙁

@badrihippo you know me in your Jabber groups.........
