It's always interesting to see how different communities structure their meetings and strategic plans. Speaking of structure and keeping things organized, I've found myself getting really into a puzzle game lately - Block Blast. There's something incredibly satisfying about the way pieces fit together, clearing rows, and strategizing to keep the board from filling up. It's a great way to unwind and focus for a bit. On the topic of strategic necessity, how do you think the "system integrator to contributor pathway" will impact the long-term growth of the Mojaloop ecosystem?
@ bad time simulator: Thank you for sharing these meeting minutes. It's great to see the discussions and decisions documented so clearly, as this helps keep the community informed and encourages transparency.
