= Excellence =
=[[Excellence]]=
'''Our One Rule is to Be Excellent to Each Other.'''
Excelence is drinking club matetrying to co exist and thrive with people with different ideas of how the space should be used. there is the golden rule, but its more nebulous than that.

we have an anti harrasment policy, and deescalation. We try to hear everyone's thoughts. We use do-ocracy. but these can lead to conflict, especially if people do un excelent things.

= Discussion =

== Discussion Item 1 ==
Bob's sign question
Looking for a keyboard-input marquee sign.

the kitchen sisters is a podcast, todays was about the --- mabuhay gardens, which is an important cultural part of san francisco

mark-Can I get some clarity on where your at and what you need?

bob-There are signs available that have the IR remote input, but I would like to modify one so it can just take a keyboard input instead

elan- if you take one of your signs to circuit hacking mondays, it doesn't sound like the most dificult thing to hack together. I'll help you search the internet after the meeting for such a thing if it already exists

== Discussion Item 2 ==
proposed robotics meetup

kat- I have a colleague who works on all the open source drone controllers and stuff. We want to work together on a thing. We are looking for space to host an event on the rough order of ~50 people. Looking at after-work hours (6 or 7pm) on Aug 10th or 11th?

TJ - sounds cool, I can be there.

loren- are you asking for exclusive use of some area?

TJ- Do you need AV?
kat - projector would be good, although not necessary

kat- is there some where online you can talk?

loren- are you comfortable with discord?

mark- can we use the #event support channel?

TJ- you can contact me im @culteejen on discord

kat- we've been thinking about making this a regular thing but space is such a premium

TJ- I really want to see this happen, contact me

== Discussion Item 3 ==
music event

(Jul 30th) The New Farm @bayview (a venue) wants to do an ambient music mellow vibes event, going through the NB wiki, we are wondering if you are interested in supporting that, we are looking for a venue. We will donate the procedings. We have a decibel reader. thenewfarmsf is the website, we have a staff and a sound system. July 30th

what is the cutoff time?

mark- its kind of dependant on your member support and who is willing to stay and help you

how many people are generally @ events @ the new farm?

generally 50 ppl @ a time during the new farm?

TJ -context very few people new what was happening, there was a massive mess.

Tea- with the punk show, they tagged the neighbors. with the breakcore show they were extremely loud (110 db)

Leon - explains the recent discussion vis a vis "having a member(s) help with event hosting"

TJ- You are currently doing everything that is required, in terms of coming to the meeting

Mark- thats a big part of it, getting the word out early and getting community input

TJ- are there any hard nos?

mark- not from anybody who is here

== Discussion Item 3 ==
amplifier- we tested, the speakers need a 600w amplifier

== Discussion Item 4 ==
editing the template for meeting notes to have associate member instead of philanthropist- small c consensus

== Discussion item 5 ==
Keeping the space clean and organized

Elan- I want to become more stringent with the parking tickets

LX- I want to have a tray, and a shelf for stacking trays, and if people leave shit they are doing their project tray gets put away
My proposal is that we get multiple containers with nametags, and we keep projects in them

TJ there are two things that contribute to messiness, projects that are out and filling up the table.

2 things that contribute to mess - 1 is pojects laid out for being worked on then simply not put back. 2 - things that have enetered the space that arent used at all and are just taking up space

its very evident in the upper floor that if the table is too cluttered, people dont clean up.

Elan- do we have a parking ticket template available on the wiki?

Mark - yes https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/File:NB_ParkingTicket.pdf

Asha - cleaning guild possibly?

Mark - let's talk about that at Metaguild meeting

= 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!
