* Read off any names from the binder for the past month. Write a check on every open application.
We have members.
* Anyone up for joining this week (ie have four checks by their name + have two sponsors) should introduce themselves then leave the area in search of gifts (traditionally beer and a lime) for the rest of the group. The rest of the meeting should consense on whether they may join.

duncan has his personal desk set up on a sewing work table.  WTF?  we use that table for sewing things.  when i tried to talk to him about it he suggested i bring it up at the meeting.  i think that using public workspace for individual workstations is unexcellent. -rlh

Duncan agreed to move his stuff to the shelf. He suggested that perhaps Noisebridge was not civilized.
=== End of Meeting ===
 
* [[PGP|PGP Key Signing]] could happen now, check the [[PGP|list]] to see who wants in on the action.
We consense on our lack of civilization. Rachel blocked, saying we were fucking civilized.
* Put back the membership binder in the black desk.
 
* Save the meeting notes to the wiki.
Leif explains what Tor is again, and how we would take donations to build Tor nodes as earmarked donations to Noisebridge. Questions were asked and answered!
* Send a copy of the meeting notes to the discussion list.
 
* Copy the [[Meeting Notes Template]] for next week's agenda and update the main wiki page's link to it.
q. Are the Tor nodes running in the space? a. No.<br/>
* Enjoy a cocktail with your fellow hacker or robot.
q. Is their legal risk? a. We are doing this in part to show how limited the legal risk.<br/>
q. What about illegal pornography or other unlawful content?<br/>
a. Plenty of people here provide Tor exit nodes, and their interactions with law enforcement has been positive -- Tor is well-known, and indeed used by law enforcement. What we're trying to do here is to establish more clearly that this is the case so people don't feel so cautious, and law enforcement have a clearer more well-documented precedent to help them understand what is going on.<br/>
 
Katie -- some ISPs say to use Tor to bypass copyright in the UK. UK three strikes law might lead to a disconnection.<br/>
Shannon -- don't use BitTorrent over Tor.<br/>
Andy -- the servers won't be here, they'll be at multiple colocation facilities.<br/>
 
q. Who will be helping us legally?<br/>
a. The EFF -- but they're not our counsel. But they have indicated they would be interested, and would help us find counsel.<br/>
 
q. What happens if the FBI busts Noisebridge?<br/>
a. We have no guarantee, but then we have no guarantee that the FBI will bust us now?<br/>
 
q. What kind of capacity?<br/>
a. We're looking at a gigabit switch.<br/>
 
q. Is there any plans to have back-up money in case we go over?
a. We are designing it so that we can never spend money that we don't have.
 
Any more concerns?
 
There was a general concern about Rubin's hair color.
 
Katie said your geocache is broken. She is do-acratically fixing it.
