- Adner request: respond in voice for now, but still write notes to memory.
- Adner asked for third-party meeting recording/transcription outside Microsoft Teams for permalink notes; mentioned Recall; wants cheaper/efficient alternatives.
- Constraint: wants personal notes only, not shared, not attached to enterprise tooling; OK if not perfect; not a showstopper.
- Today must-dos mentioned: 9:30 AM SAM meeting (software asset management, likely Microsoft renewal); set up colleague's new computer (flexible). Dominique replied to Blue Prism questions; need Dominique's actual response pasted to act on it.
- AV project context received: 1745 Broadway room 2036 conference room AV upgrade request (Logitech Rally Bar to Cisco Room Bar). Contacts: Adner, Scott Grande (DK Publishing), Molly King, Maysa Dahdouli. USIS proposals 9702 and 9371. DK considering owner-furnished equipment. Governance question re cost sharing; previously paused pending leadership guidance.
- Outcome: Maysa covering full cost; asset to be 100% BINC-owned. Internal rationale not to be shared externally with Scott.
- Ops note: WSL distro name on Adner's machine is `Ubuntu-22.04` (not `Ubuntu`). Dashboard file share path uses `\\wsl.localhost\\Ubuntu-22.04\\...` and startup uses `wsl -d Ubuntu-22.04`.
- Blue Prism POC: Dominik response indicates feasible model with clients accessing servers via VPN/Cloud Connect/Bastion; only 2 servers managed by Arvato Systems; endpoints are self-hosted with compliance responsibility on BINC. Costs: ~€1.7k one-time setup, ~€1.2k monthly managed services, plus ~€0.8k Azure consumption estimate. Dominik asked whether Arvato Connect already has BGROUP users/admins; otherwise per-user monthly charges apply (BGroup Base Managed Premium User €6.40, Security Monitoring and Incident Response user €5.96). Risk: identity/technical accounts churn (BincBluestar lessons). Adner drafted email style: state policy constraint, declare plan, ask Dominik to confirm 4 items; point 2 specifies BINC creates standard BGROUP users and Arvato Systems creates technical accounts + admin rights + confirms per-user charges.
