+​**Changes in the workforce!**
+
+- Taeer is leaving modus / fediversity
+- Nicolas is joining in his stead
+- Hans is also coming back
+- Jimena is leaving the project as well.
+
+  
+**Architecture document**
+
+- "Different design choices" A.K.A. shortcuts
+
+1.
+
+- Before the idea was that all you needed was a pile of hardware, and our application would take care of everything on top of that with NixOS
+- Now: use a layer in between for virtualisation, clustering, etc. that's already been invented
+
+- Kubernetes: too complicated
+- proxmox: not as complicated
+
+2.
+
+- Before: share services between organizations
+- Now: each organization has its own set of services
+
+  
+
+Question: How do you handle inter-service communication?
+Example: Matrix, authentication mechanism. Do they run together or are they separate services?
+DNS (TBD), Email (stalwart), Authentication (TBD), Backend storage (garage). 
+
+  
+
+Bogdan: unclear about the implications of using Proxmox
+
+Original question regarding kubernetes/nixops was: can we design around features that kubernetes has
+
+Is the feature of kubernetes of dynamic scaling quickly is actually something that is currently needed in fediversity architecture
+proxmos allows scaling in virtual machines, (missed a part here), and is already familiar for lots of people
+
+it also gives api to deploy that nixops can communicate with
+  
+Koen will adjust the architecture document next week to include the Proxmos, and then meet with Taeer and Nicolas on Wednesday Sept 4th at 4pm NL time
+
+  
+
+**Communication**
+Koen wants daily updates posted publicly, but this is still open for discussion
+Posting updates to our existing fediverse instances
