## User Documentation report/feedback request (from Emily, not present):

_Quick question: Are we still working with the same set of adopters? Any new adopters, or current adopters using Hypha in new ways?_

- Main User Documentation link: [https://docs.hypha.app/gettingstarted\_overview](https://docs.hypha.app/gettingstarted_overview)
- [Roles page](https://docs.hypha.app/gettingstarted_overview/hypha_roles) now live, working on “logging in” instructions w/screenshot
- Other pages that you’d like to see soon?
  - Put another way, any questions about Hypha features/functionality that I might help clarify with documentation? (@frjo, @blah, @bernard, and others, if any issues come up that you think documentation might help please let me know)

- Have put “how to contact us” re: documentation on some pages (eventually will have on all) if you’d like clarification, corrections, or additions
- Message me on Zulip or Slack, or post here (on we.hypha.app) and **tag me** to get in touch!

**Notes**  
Intros, nice to meet Eriol on the Simply Secure team!

Run through of new features

- Big thing is additions to the Projects/Compliance space. Can follow open issues/progress [here](https://github.com/HyphaApp/hypha/labels/Theme%3A%20Finance%2FCompliance).

Security announcement

- Run through of issues discovered by Radically Open Security
- Ask @frjo for more details on issues discovered
- Open question, how best to deal with future security disclosures and announcements work
  - @kfogel is going to start a discussion here at we.hypha.app for us to dig in

What’s going to happen in the next month?

- Adding in API calls for invoicing and other finance-related tasks and a new finance role
- Have the ability to integrate other finance other systems (Sage Inaact, Salesforce, and Netsuite are on the shortlist)
- Upgrading to django 3
- Adding refinements to the workflows
- Adding in the ability for changing strings for translation or org specific terms
  - Translations section on how to contribute different languages to core hypha vs changing string terms (ie renaming determination to something else) for implementation-specific stuff

On docs workflow for new features

- making acceptance criteria a part of prs (ie not accepting a new pull request until a doc stub has been created linking to issues/pr). @eriol @emlini and @frjo will aim to gather to work out a workflow 🎆

Any new adopters or other news from adopters?

- Digital Defenders Partners is coming 🚀
- DFF just finished their second round using hypha 🥳
- ADRC is creating a new workflow! And thinking about how workflows could be created/managed within the admin interface, whoop! 💥
  - See an overview here: [Hypha Statuses - Google Slides](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/17mX7gqV5G1YdtrwV84OVdwvNdHGgWP9zUITtXmBlS7A/edit#slide=id.p)

On the big question of what goes or does not go into hypha-core

- General agreement that there is no issue with this now but that a formal criteria/workflow for determining what is accepted or not should exist
- Related section in the guide here: [https://docs.hypha.app/contributing/submittingchanges](https://docs.hypha.app/contributing/submittingchanges)
- @eriol is interested in discovering existing adopters thoughts.

This lights a fire under me to get the abstracted workflow maps Bernard started and I am working on completed, so we can get them up on the docs and discuss workflows more with adopters.

I might also see if @rosy is willing to meet again to review the workflows they’re thinking about, so I can see if they fit within the abstracted workflows we’re generating.

I have it in my to-do list to ask @rosy or @chelsea for time to meet so I can document that. If I can do that, I’ll let you know @emlini

@bernard I think I remember you saying you had this meeting, yes? Could you link notes/summary of your discussion if so? I see that it’s an Agenda Item for the [October 27th Adopter’s meeting](https://we.hypha.app/t/monthly-adopters-meeting-2021-oct-27th/154)–are you providing that update or is @rosy or @zubakskees?
