 a heck of a lot going on.  We have an awful lot to do, in a short amount
 of time: the 180nm tape-out is in October 2020 - only 7 months away.
 
+With this update we're doing something slightly different: a request
+has gone out [to the other team members](http://lists.libre-riscv.org/pipermail/libre-riscv-dev/2020-March/005428.html)

 # NLNet Funding announcement
 
-TODO
+An announcement went out
+[last year](https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libreplanet-discuss/2019-09/msg00170.html)
+that we'd applied for funding, and we got some great responses and
+feedback (such as "don't use patented AXI4").  The second time, we
+sent out a "we got it!" message and got some really nice private and
+public replies, as well as requests from people to join the team.
+More on that when it happens.

 # OpenPower Virtual Coffee Meetings
 
-TODO
+The "Virtual Coffee Meetings", announced
+[here](https://openpowerfoundation.org/openpower-virtual-coffee-calls/)
+are literally open to anyone interested in OpenPOWER (if you're strictly
+Libre there's a dial-in method).  These calls are not recorded, it's
+just an informal conversation.
+
+What's a really nice surprise is finding
+out that Paul Mackerras, whom I used to work with 20 years ago, is *also*
+working on OpenPOWER, specifically
+[microwatt](https://github.com/antonblanchard/microwatt), being managed
+by Anton Blanchard.
+
+A brief discussion led to learning that Paul is looking at adding TLB
+(Virtual Memory) support to microwatt, specifically the RADIX TLB.
+I therefore pointed him at the same resource
+[(power-gem5)](https://github.com/power-gem5/gem5/tree/gem5-experimental)
+that Hugh had kindly pointed me at, the week before, and did a
+[late night write-up](http://lists.libre-riscv.org/pipermail/libre-riscv-dev/2020-March/005445.html)
+
+My feeling is that these weekly round-table meetings are going to be
+really important for everyone involved in OpenPOWER.  It's a community:
+we help each other.
