=== Discussion Item 2 === Membership, capital M and otherwise, hiatus (https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Membership/Hiatus), "good standing", etc. lxpk: recapping their take on this, and excellent retelling their example of being in a similar situation and starting the membership process from scratch to re-become a member. jade: has some thoughts, and thinks not being able to meet people in the space to get to the know them a reason to put a hold on this. chat: thanX lxpk I'd like to highlight a couple key points and let the community discuss this over the next week also per the current coversation, we are both either members or philanthropists and known by at least some in person already lxpk: just occured to them (not reading chat), something about Gabriel, and they have been in the space already. Would consider not blocking people that they haven't met so long as enough people have. jade: wants to say exactly the same thing. what if I want to become a member now, what now? bfb: completely agrees. It would be extradinary if someone who only new noisebridge thru the pandemic became a member. Observation, could be hard for me to get to know Gabriel chat: Dan and I can train y'all to be peer buddies for the move X: BLAH BLAH BLAH sorta pretty much what I wrote here.... The Hiatus information linked was written without Consensus by a former Member who may also have been a treasurer and these read more like policy and proposed best practices. I think these are well worth considering and would leave it to our current treasurer and secretary, as an acting secretary I stand aside in re-writing or interpriting said policies. If these feel valid for current Membership and Philanthropists (successor of Associate Membership), I would be using this as an oppurtunity to inform all Members and Philanthropists that they would be highly advised to send an email to treasurer@noisebridge.net & secretary@noisebridge.net stating explicitly that they believe they are a Member/Philanthropist in good standing, or they are on Hiatus along with when that became effective and when they expect to return with a given time frame. If you are hearing this or reading this "WE ARE NOISEBRIDGE" it is excellent to give us money. If you are Member or Philanthropist please bring your accounts up to date and verify your payment methods are current and acting as desired. zach: sharing some thoughts on policy, talk about when they became member. Something about how it was a fairly grueling process when he became one. [would be great if someone linked some wiki meeting notes of this process when it was happening] mice: we are > 0 X: I personnally reminded Kinnard today there was a meeting, they didn't express a particular interest in attending or have any particular issues to pass along. to the best of my recolection. zach: laying out some interesting in tricky thoughts that relate to how this isn't an ideal process. lxpk: idea of people becoming members, and we continued discussing it. make it easy for me to say current candidates should be considered, X included (Me) who I said I would sponsor. Asking about Gabriel and if I can connect with who the heck are you. Gabriel: (Camera on) talking about history and being a Philanthropist for 2'ish or 3 years now and come and gone during and before. Having thoughts about being more involved on weighing in. lxpk: Talks about you can always weigh in. do you have any sponsors yet? (...not so much) jade: X: I've digitally dropped my application on to the computer in the sparkle forge <pre> electro@electro.noisebridge>cat /etc/motd β © HEY NOISEBRIDGE I'M APPLYING TO BE A MEMBER. As of June 23rd 2020 it's been discussed at one weekly meeting. I have one sponsor, lxpk It is an ongoing discussion about whether or not there will be new members. </pre> zach: we are still figuring this out, if you are interested it's worth going thru the process and getitng some sponsors. Dan: points out there is an existing consensus that applications are thrown away after sitting in the binder for 12 weeks or more. So may need to include that relative to a consensus to current membership process. np ;+)
