	Two and half years ago marked my tenth year in academia. Couldn't stand the wage-slavery. We founded Corvid college, an anarchic college, not a hassle-castle. No fees, no tuition. We practice radical tolerance. You can charge anything. We don't hate money. We don't love it either. We use reverse-bribery. We charge $10 for the first class, $100 for the second class, and then students get paid $10 for coming back.		Two and half years ago marked my tenth year in academia.

	~~Jay~~.		We talked about Jorgen's behavior. A lot.

			There aren't any detailed notes for this bit, because I asked about stopping taking them during the description of the incidents for privacy reasons, and didn't retake them up during the loong discussion afterwards.

			I'm not sure I can summarize too precisely, so please feel free to add or correct.

			There was a number of incidents discussed (Rachel, Ramon, Zach, and Erica all talked about incidents). Jorgen was very sorry. Many at the meeting felt that a simple commitment not to do them again would not be credible, primarily because there was a number of events, and they had all taken place while Jorgen was under the influence of alcohol. Some felt that Jorgen's many fine contributions to Noisebridge should be taken into account; others felt that good behaviour does not justify or trump bad. Rob and Zephyr were concerned that Jorgen was being highlighted for criticism and action when there were others who exhibited worse behavior.

			Jake suggested that Jorgen take some time away from Noisebridge; Jorgen said he was planning to do so. Jorgen said that he would not sleep at Noisebridge, and not drink, but some repeated that this was felt to be something that right now he could not honestly commit to. Catherine proposed that Jorgen agree not to come to Noisebridge between 8PM and 8AM. It was felt that this would allow Jorgen to come to Noisebridge while he was sorting himself out, but also allow others to feel safer.

			Danny noted that while this wasn't a consensus item, nor a rule that Noisebridge was making, members in the past had worried about unbounded agreements. He offered that we publicly revisit the matter in the near future (after Christmas).

			We almost came to a conclusion, than Danny freaked that 8PM and 8AM was a weird and arbitrary provision and Leif co-freaked. Creative alternatives were sought. Everyone got a bit frazzled. In the end, Jorgen said "I won't be drunk at Noisebridge again, not sleep here, and not visit Noisebridge between 8PM and 8AM except meetings, until further notice."

Pick a moderator, and a note-taker. The note-taker should:

* write notes in this page, put them back up online when they're done,
* edit the [[Current_Consensus_Items|Current Consensus Items]] if anything is decided to be up for consensus next week (stuff raised for consensus this week should be publicised for a final decision next week)
* edit the [[Consensus_Items_History|Consensus Items History]] if anything was consensed or failed to consense this week.
* tell treasurer@noisebridge.net and secretary@noisebridge.net if there are new members.

Moderator should:
* make sure everyone gets a chance to speak
* speak minimally themselves
* keep the meeting moving! you're in charge of summarising the consensus, and/or suggesting things that need to be done!
* get the membership binders and ensure they are returned to the black desk
