Jo: when I am here I am very productive. There is also how creative the space feels. This is the place where you are able to become productive, creative, and excellent.


== Anti-Harassment Policy & Community Standards of Excellence ==
Noisebridge has an [[Anti-Harassment Policy]] https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Anti-Harassment_Policy
Everyone is expected to follow the Anti-Harassment Policy, please familiarize yourself with it.) TWO MINUTES MAX
More approachable & specific guidelines, https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Community_Standards
https://safespace.noisebridge.net/ is one way to quickly raise issues which will be seen by people in Slack.
Amy: could we add language on ageism in there? (in other words dont call me young lady)

== Brief Kudos ==
Recent examples of excellent behavior, say 3, unless the passion moves you.

Amy: kudos to do-ocracy
= Guilds =
* '''What are [[guilds]] - briefly describe''' (much like the previous section on "Excellence")

Gotta spend money on XYZ (i.e. Gate, wiring etc.). WHO CAN SIGN THE CHECK OR LEND THE CREDIT CARD!?!?! It doesn't matter if we agree to do something and it can’t be paid for.

== Fundraising Update ==
'''How's it all going'''

= Big C Consensus Items =
Nobody likes 3 hour meetings, only explain if new people are present. https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Current_Consensus_Items
Julius: Capital M members have a veto for big C consensus items, where they can delay it for a week. It allows people some time to discuss things. 

== [[ Consensus Items ]] ==
Only for talking about Big C consensus items, small c consensus items should be discussed with people at the space at the time of the change/new item.


= Discussion Items =
== Template... [num]: [topic-short] ==
From/Raised by:
Seeking: decision/outcome/advice/[?]
On topic:

== (discussion item) 1: Lights ==
From/Raised by: Henry
Seeking: decision/outcome/advice/[?]
On topic:
    Henry: Im kind of new to nosebridge, so I dont really understand how this would work (in terms of budget, etc). These lights are very harsh, and they are an ugly color temperature. I thought it would be nice to have a number of big spheres that hang from the ceiling, and we could put warm bulbs in them. The glass globes I originally wanted are kind of expensive. There are cheaper options: paper lannterns
    
Julius: it makes sense, ultimately I am not the ultimate decider. Depending on what you are trying to do, its quite useful to have a harsh, white light. It might also be kind of hard to convince people.

Cloud: I have passed the lighting project onto henry, because3 I never got it done

Julius: do you know what the situation with the election is? JD: My understanding is that the board election is still being organized. Along those lines, our treasurer is new to the postion and overwhelmed. There are also some big ticket items( handicap access for the frontdoor, and the woodshop partition)

Julius: who is the interim treasurer?

JD: its loren. Theres a whole story, but the meeting is not the place for this.

Amy: how is the electricity paid for? 

Amy: Are you familiar with builders resource in bayview? they might do deals, and they might want to get rid of stuff. There is also craigslist, or demolition companies.

Julius:
    
JD: the fact that the upstairs hallway is dark is a safety concern

Henry: I have a motion sensor I was going to give to electronics recycling.

= Do-ocratic Task Board =
Participation also means doing stuff to contribute to the space. Propose new tasks or pick some tasks from [https://github.com/noisebridge/buildout-capp Github], from what needs to be done around you, or whatever, and see if someone will sign up to work on that task. Anyone can sign up and it's a great way to show you are contributing!
