+What we’ve been up to:
+
+- metadata and proxy responses stored on ipfs
+- json (ipld-ish) representations of versions and packages
+- upgraded to latest js-ipfs releases
+- various bug fixes
+- [released v0.0.17](https://github.com/foragepm/forage/releases/tag/v0.0.17)
+
+This week’s activities:
+
+- share metadata+responses over pubsub
+- export metadata+responses along with archives
+- investigate signing and trusting instances
+    - can we reuse ipfs pub/priv keys?

+### Discussion topics
+
+#### 🔥 Lotus / Filecoin RPC and Library Audit
+
+https://github.com/protocol/w3dt-sudo/issues?q=label%3Afilecoin-rpc-audit
+
+* Vasco & Rod finishing it up - other eyes would be welcome - renedered @ https://github.com/protocol/w3dt-sudo/blob/rvagg/project-filecoin-js/projects/filjs-audit/README.md
+
+#### 🔥 TypeScript Definitions for core libraries
+
+* Releases! So many releases...
+
+#### Gateway++ / IPFS Reimagined
+
+IPFS Reimagined workstream proposal: https://www.notion.so/protocollabs/IPFS-Reimagined-2054b59bd8af4c9794486c7726021aa1#526727af2d934a4aa1c6c408aa8ccd51 *(private link)*
+
+* https://github.com/olizilla/ipfs-get
+* now do the reverse!
+* ipfs-unixfs* - trim them down? new dag-pb stack (fewer dependencies), make mfs and rabin optional?
+* RV: suggest we just make little, independent tools for now, work on integrating into something more modular later - focus on patterns, size, simplicity, dependency depth for now, experiment. Make tools easily testable - how?
+
+**Large provider DHT** (2nd-level DHT)
+
+* https://www.notion.so/protocollabs/IPFS-for-NFT-DApps-d9a60743ae3e459ca6f7c9e22508d862#c0be9e9f2a774d288ff965159dd714e8  *(private link)*
+* Has buy-in from Adin
+* Need to scope it out, how much work is there in this?
+
+**Other**
+
+* Pinning API discussions
+    - lidel and others warming to CAR import ([e.g.](https://github.com/ipfs/pinning-services-api-spec/issues/73#issuecomment-837546271))
+    - Pinning API to cluster - Build Your Own Pinning Service (as a Service)
