** E-mail from a moderator seeking a replacement (confidential): TM has already responded with some suggestions&lt;br /&gt;
** Query in {{news|news.groups}} about the lack of posts in {{news|comp.os.linux.announce}}. TM has confirmed with Salahuddin that the moderation system is still working.  Unfortunately, all submissions so far have been rejected as off-topic (spam, etc.). TM suggested to Salahuddin that perhaps the group&amp;#039;s return to functionality may need to be better publicized.  Paul Schleck, in a follow-up on {{news|news.groups}}, has provided further insights and advice; TM to direct Salahuddin&amp;#039;s attention to this post.&lt;br /&gt;
* Publicity&lt;br /&gt;
** TM: [https://media.libreplanet.org/u/libreplanet/tag/libreplanet-2023-video/ LibrePlanet 2023 video, audio, and slides] (including [https://media.libreplanet.org/u/libreplanet/m/federation-and-moderation-usenet-as-the-original-decentralized-social-network/ our talk])] now available&lt;br /&gt;
*** The video description for our talk was wrong.  TM wrote to conference organizers, who have now corrected the description.&lt;br /&gt;
*** TM has publicized the talk video on {{news|news.groups}} and social media.  TM to add an announcement on the Board&amp;#039;s web page.&lt;br /&gt;
** TM raised the possibility of new (Web)STUMP release in time for [https://www.gnu.org/gnu40/ GNU 40th Anniversary] event? (They want to have &amp;quot;40 release announcements, discussions or presentations in one day&amp;quot;.)  The meeting agreed to aim for a new release of (Web)STUMP no later than this event.&lt;br /&gt;
* Misc&lt;br /&gt;
** TM: [https://ahelwer.ca/post/2023-03-08-google-groups/ Interesting blog post on the further deterioration of Google Groups] ([https://tech.slashdot.org/story/23/03/08/172217/google-groups-has-been-left-to-die via Slashdot]).  The post discusses Google Groups in its capacity as a web forum/mailing list and doesn&amp;#039;t mention its Usenet gateway, though it&amp;#039;s interesting that even these Google-specific features are now being left to rot.&lt;br /&gt;
