** Liz has some feedback from the cleaning lady: Noisebridge is confusing, and she doesn't get what this place is; nobody talks to her and that's somewhat uncomfortable for her; it sometimes looks like people maybe steal things and she doesn't want to be blamed for that.

== [[:Category:Events | New or Stale Events]] ==

== Consensus items ==

=== Proposals from last week ===
* '''It is the consensus of Noisebridge Tom Lowenthal should replace Danny O'Brien as the secretary of Noisebridge'''

=== Proposals for next week ===
* Proposal from Martin: Noisebridge should purchase Gorilla Racks replacing the current selection of member shelves of the same approximate dimensions. This is estimated at approximately $1200-$1800. http://www.globalindustrial.com/g/storage/shelving/boltless/Gorilla-Rack-Shelving

== Discussion Items ==

=== Harassment ===
Context: [https://www.noisebridge.net/pipermail/noisebridge-discuss/2012-October/033099.html]. We had a wide-ranging discussion of how Noisebridge is a challenging environment for this sort of thing, and how we can deal with this.

The following were concrete suggestions as to how to resolve this problem:
* Martin proposes and extensive re-education campaign.
** Educate all members of the community and legal standards
** Define a person at NoiseBridge who has the 'ombudsman' responsibility
** Set forth a clear procedure to follow if there is sexual harassment
** Respond swiftly and clearly
* RAYC proposes to prepare and distribute useful literature about our [[Community Standards]]
* We should provide more help and guidance for people who are running events.
* Mike suggests serious and blinking signs.

=== The Door ===
The buzzer is broken. Jake might fix it, and might implement other solutions,
* The option to silence the buzzer without opening the door.
* Soon, you will need a code to open the door at the the top of the stairs (otherwise, you need to physically open the door).
* There are plans to implement another closed circuit camera in the phone, for a second view.

=== Cleaning ===
The monthly cleaning service is raising rates from $145 to $160 per month. Will would like someone else to take over from him in managing this. Danny suggests that Will just discontinue the service. Will agrees.

=== Other ===
The following were inconclusively discussed:
* hacker shelves
* a pilot program
* roles and responsibilities
