Suggestion from joy -- Helping fundraising by donating to the community through STORE (Community thtrift, takes in second hand goods). (Appears to be website for easily taking donations by registering with Community Thrift store, we could generate additional funds by having people choose to donate money to Noisebridge through the sale of second hand items.).

Noisebridge rebase, reboot IEEE working group has had it's first meeting today, and will recur at Noisebridge every tuesday at 6:00 PM. Would enjoy people coming to it and bringint therir ideas. We should have a mailing list and a wiki, working under a consensus based process and will respond to the meeting (tis group) with a document outline the plans and restrictions of moving  rebuilding noisebridge. We will hear more.

James has a differnet understanding of the topic, "We are braingstorming and laying out a rebased concept of remaking noisebridge". Encourages people to show up at the 6:00 PM meeting (On Tuesdays) with an end goal of submitting a proposal to the Noisebridge meeting. "If we can't agree amongst ourselves, it doesn't make sense to seek consensus".

Rhodies: Agrees in principle and agrees with the difficulty of identifying ongoing electronics component usage patterns, we should keep anongoing ledger. Wants to minimize waiting time for components for a given user. Agrees with the idea that we should stock our basic materials such as Solder, belives it to be within our non-broke budget.

Carlos goes into a story of how Noisebridge came to be the way it is. People are going to ask for resources, but they are hard to find. Still contends that we should get an idea of what we have so we can make better assessments. Knows the story of the long and protracted blocks on buying things, explains that stuff still gets donated (Solder Stations and Irons for example). M

Johnny says he put a list on the wall, found some peoples things. Requiring documentation is tough (this is true), borders on unreasonable. Believes that if all of the people are in agreement that if we agree to use these electronics then if we are short on 100mf capacitors we should get some more, we are not going to require you to document everything here to save 5$.

Johnny has spent many hours cataloguing what we have, admits it is a huge effort, Thinks that there are ongoing day to day activities doing electronics that are held up by the lack of these components. Would like this to be done independently of a complete revampl.

Monad comments that the spac, with all the organization that people do, the problem is the chaos of the space. Things are not already nice so that are not accessible. Can't find tools (This is indeed a real problem), it's like coming off the street. You have to conduct strip mining in order to find anything.

Noisebridge rebase, reboot IEEE working group has had it's first meeting today, and will recur at Noisebridge every tuesday at 6:00 PM. Would enjoy people coming to it and bringint therir ideas. We should have a mailing list and a wiki, working under a consensus based process and will respond to the meeting (tis group) with a document outline the plans and restrictions of moving rebuilding noisebridge. We will hear more.

Also worth noting that the topic of next meetings reboot is "Culture", as well as people's ideas.

Martin says that we s"it could be decided by just a piece of paper with requests, this piece of paper could be read aloutd at a meeting for people to decide in a collective fashion". This is a recipe for complete disaster says your notetaker.


Monad discusses the inaccesability of certain shop parts.


The problem with organization is the chaotic capitalist roaders (Notetaker interjection)


Johnny wants very much to have better organization. If the condition of 10-20$/mn is not tough for noisebridge, we need a system.


JC would like to table this, maybe we should just take a box. Immediate, consensusless project could be done today.


Johnny won't put it up for consensus. Martin syas this has been discussed before, alot. Maybe we can remedy these things. There ahve been many solutions proposed such as tethering, but this has been found to be restricted. Doesn't know where he's going with this. IT ahs been talked about alot. The RFID reader could be tags on things. (Instead of just people!) . Monad says if we need to hvae a switch he doesn't even know where to look. Points out that ancient arcane knowledge is required to find anything at noisebridge. THis is problematic.


We will continue to plan an alternative solution outside the meeting, apologizes for the time consuming discussion (even though he is not at fault. good guy noiesbridge member meme)


JC has a carryover for reboot rebase, short version ahs been discussed earlier. however...

Johnny proposes an issue for discussion here.


Would like to request on background on why he was asked to come back.


Dan just hacked a fucking awesome c64 demo.


Back to Dan. Dan would like to participate, but he promises to be a more productiove member of noisebridge.




Leif -- as one of the people who told him not to spend every day here, I back this.



Ladies and Gentlemen of Noisebridge this is over. hg commit!!!
