# VSO Meeting Final Checklist
|
||||
## Before 9:30 AM Meeting - February 11, 2026
|
||||
|
||||
### 🔐 CRITICAL: Gitea Access for VSO
|
||||
|
||||
**Issue:** All your VA documents are in Gitea at `http://10.0.10.2:3000/fred/obsidian-vault`
|
||||
|
||||
**This is a LOCAL IP - VSO cannot access from outside your network!**
|
||||
|
||||
**Options to share documents with VSO:**
|
||||
|
||||
#### Option 1: VPN Access (if VSO has VPN)
|
||||
- VSO connects to your WireGuard VPN (10.0.9.0/24)
|
||||
- Can then access Gitea at http://10.0.10.2:3000
|
||||
- **Action:** Send VSO your WireGuard config (if appropriate)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Option 2: Export to USB/Email
|
||||
- Export key documents to USB drive or email
|
||||
- **Files to export:**
|
||||
- VA-STRATEGY-100-PERCENT-ROADMAP.md (print or PDF)
|
||||
- VSO-MEETING-QUICK-GUIDE.md (print)
|
||||
- va-updated-nexus-with-hypersomnia.md
|
||||
- book, frederek_sleep.pdf
|
||||
- **Action:** Copy files to USB or attach to email
|
||||
|
||||
#### Option 3: Print Key Documents
|
||||
- Print the essentials for VSO to review
|
||||
- **Print:**
|
||||
- VSO-MEETING-QUICK-GUIDE.md (1 page)
|
||||
- Relevant sections of roadmap
|
||||
- Sleep study PDF
|
||||
|
||||
#### Option 4: Screen Share During Meeting
|
||||
- Use Zoom/Teams/Discord to share screen
|
||||
- Walk through Gitea documents together
|
||||
- **Action:** Have meeting link ready
|
||||
|
||||
#### Option 5: Temporary External Access (Advanced)
|
||||
- Use Caddy reverse proxy via VPS (vps.nianticbooks.com)
|
||||
- Create temporary subdomain: git.nianticbooks.com
|
||||
- **Risk:** Exposes Gitea to internet (use with caution)
