Pre-Meeting[edit | edit source]
Pre-meeting skipped.
Excellence[edit | edit source]
Our One Rule is to Be Excellent to Each Other.
(What does that mean? How does the Anti-Harassment Policy fit into this? Are we SURE we know what being Excellent is? This is an important and fundamental conversation at Noisebridge, so let's give it like 120 seconds.)
Participation[edit | edit source]
Everyone at Noisebridge is a participant at Noisebridge.
(What does that mean? How do you get a door key? Access to Slack, Discuss, etc?)

A Philanthropist at Noisebridge has earned enough trust from the community to open and close the space.
(What does that mean? What do we expect from Philanthropists? How do you become one? etc)
Membership Definition[edit | edit source]
Membership in Noisebridge entails community Trust in Consensus.
(What does that mean? What do we expect from Members? How do you become a Member? etc)

Guilds are how groups at noisebridge organize.
(What is a guild? How do you join one? etc)
Consensus[edit | edit source]
Consensus is how the Noisebridge Membership may change how Noisebridge works.
(How does Consensus work? What types of things are good for formal Consensus? What is small-c consensus? What is a "block"?)

Relay: How many people for a Guild?
Mark: 2 or more
Relay: Want to make a Library Guild. Will try to get jay query and mannequin involved.
Relay: All I need is more book scanner documentation
Mark: Do you know who was doing it last?
Relay: I made some improvements to it. Mannequin was working on categorization system for books, and using a scanner / checkout database for it. Doesn't respond to emails, though.
Mark: Just round up some people, and report back.
Relay: Where do I report?
Mark: At the Tuesday meetings, make (regular) meetings of your own.
Relay: I'll do that.
Mark: MetaGuild had a meeting, but was empty. Not much to report, except a question on guilds/org on consolidation of infrastructure. Looking for replies. Need a discussion.
TJ: What type of infra in particular?
Mark: All of them: digital infra, social infra, across platforms and mediums. What I want to do is help Noisebridge build itself and not reinvent the wheel. Pick stuff up that was dropped instead of starting from scratch.
Relay: Did Naomi give us NB domain?
Ryan: We have all the domains, it's all been fixed. Only problem is that servers are not able to run new website because they're on Debian 9, which is now deprecated. Progress is slow, AFAIK.
J: It's actually on Debian 10, but website is so custom made it never ran on EngineX
Ryan: Ohhh, that's a lot farther along.
