Thanks Pedro!
We were planning to use EtherPad on Disroot as they have a plugin for
the table of content (but it does not show automatically, you have to
activate it each time you open the pad, so it is not very user friendly).

So, using Hedgedoc on your server sounds like a very good idea :)

Link?

Cryptpad also would work, but we don't need all the crypto-features for
public meetings.

On a parallel topic:
the main Jitsi Meet server started asking for authentication of at least
one participant in the meeting. This would be more than ok, if it wasn't
that they only accept authentication via Google, Facebook or Github.

So maybe, additionally to the usual server in Argentina, we can start
using meet.guifi.net as fallback server?

Technically is possible, we have donations money, we can use them for
paying people to attend meetings.

It sounds weird to me, but can be done. Rather, I would see logical that
Altermundi (I suppose that is Altermundi the association managing the
grants used for funding the developers) pays them for attending the
project meetings, participate in the Matrix/Element chat and mailing list.

Does anyone have experience in other open source projects which had to
deal with a mix of waged and volunteer work? How is that managed?

Sure, I can also join meetings at dinner time in Europe during weekdays
(e.g. from 20:30 to 21:30-22:00 European time), which in the Americas
would be late afternoon. For people in Asia it would be difficult to
attend, but additional meetings can be organized at different times.

We did a Framadate survey in October-November 2022, and Saturdays at
13UTC were the winning option, but I cannot recall whether we included
European after-dinner time between the options. So we can run another of
such surveys.
Pedro, are you up for running a new survey with some alternatives out of
the weekend?

Ciao!
