Notes:

On the morning meeting with the guys. Steve was asking where some of the projects were at... one of them is the invoice due date and an auto monitor watching for outstanding invoices and prompting for payment from the users (clients and different corporations). This would help speed up the game of chasing receivables (who owes us money). We also talked about the existing Adilas Community Funded Projects page and section and how to go in there and use that tool to help generate funding and show progress.

- We also talked about fully committing to a project. Sometimes it gets really hard if you have to start and stop a project multiple times. You lose some in the duration (how long it takes) and also in the transitions (switching between different projects).

- Add in a link for the adilas community funded projects to the main website and top header navigation.

- We also need to add a drill-down link to the elements of time from the community funded projects. Use the code we just finished for the developer's notebook. It allows for elements of time to be shown outside of the secured environment.

- Talking about dedicated servers and specs. We had Steve, Brandon, Alan, and Bryan all on the call. We went over older specs of the servers and options of going up to more processors, more RAM memory, and moving things to solid state drives. Having said that, we still need to do some server tuning to make them super fast.

- If we make these changes, what do we gain? Could we put more clients on the same box? What is the user (users within a world or corporations) to cost ratio?

- We need to do some research on ColdFusion and MySQL and how they work with different clock speeds, how many core processors do they use, and what versions of those products should we use? The newest versions, as of now, are ColdFusion 2018 and MySQL 8.

- It is amazing how things (technology and such) keep changing and increasing. We have to keep playing the game.

- Short list - dual quad core processors, 32 GB RAM, 2 solid state hard drives (one for files and one for database stuff), newest versions of ColdFusion 2018 and MySQL 8

After our meeting about servers, Eric popped in and Alan helped him get a good clean local environment so that he is ready to start working on his new projects. I went into the developer's notebook and adilas community funded projects, and put in some new navigation and opened up the adilas community funded projects so that they could do a time drill-down to the underlying details. That should help us create a better path to start helping people and outside parties help us.

- As a side note, we may want to add some funding options from the individual drill-downs (elements of time) for the adilas community funded project. Basically, if they are deep enough and actually on the item (the project and/or exact element of time), it might be nice to show an option to help fund that project right from that page.
