In what's being called an "incident of provocation" sudoers cathartically purged their souls of paranoid fears, and imbibed a Class-C schedule Drug - Vitamin C in lethal amounts. 3 pinneapples, 12 bananas, 25 apples, 60 pears, and clod of celery.

- We were recommended for a grant ;)
- but requires W-9 forms, do we have that?
- for the w-9 we need the board of directors (true? - unknown)
- apparently there are still options
- not 100% we would get it, but quite likely
- everyone at a previous meeting agreed it was a good idea to pursue it further
- its more difficult to buy, business mortgages apparently need 30-50% of 1.9million. lease at $13,000 per month for two years
- Marc is getting more info from owner before he can propose a consensus item.
-
leasing triple-net means you are more responsible than a regular tennant.

- categorizing the wiki into events/projects/stubs'

to inform beloved room that faust will not be accepting nomination at

presents itself again in the future. she also expects to be there,
albeit late, with cake.

- Must pay for frequent debit transactions
- Most services take charges.
- Do get a Patelco Federal Credit Union account (use for debit, bills)
- People's Federal Credit Union
- Cooperative Federal Credit Union

that with credit unions you can often do transactions at a credit union
not yours and have them post to yours, they are in cahoots as credit
unions" - faust

2. Articles of Incorporation
- not approving board of directors (see above)
3. Finances
- all our new cash == standing funds. hands off, act normal.
- no exchequer? no bank balance info?
- current
exchequer team does not currently have access to online bank account
(can't wait to move to patelco!). check from soex on its way after
completion of contract, w-9, signatures, which will be presented to the
group at the next meeting.
4. conflict resolution
-
Timon
- constable/conflict steward. The conflict that neither of the two
parties wanted to bring t o us. Elliot and Shake. Timon noted them, both
of them declined to meet officially.
- Shake is showing good faith by sharing some perspective.
- the private portion is proceeding.
- Shake
speaks - he likes sudo room - he helped dj. at some point he was just
working and elliot asked questions about an occupy oakland. he felt like
he did explain to elliot, they even went outside. he felt like he
wasn't welcome any more. then he found out he had a conflict on the
agenda. "keep in mind that i do not want anyone to be uncomfortable
because of me". says that because he is a political figure that there
will always be oppoonents. now feels uncomfortable because he doesn't
understand that why elliot. gives a message that he wants to be here
and help
- Eventually,
sudo came around to realize that our actions during the meeting are not
the best execution and interpretation of our Conflict Resolution
procedure of the Articles of Association, ending the conversation about
the details of any specific conflicts.
- tl;dr shake tried his best but we can't do anything because the other person never showed up
- If
anyone has a conflict or wants to resolve things they may have heard or
speculate with other members, reach out to the person in question, or
find another sudoer to act as a mediator.
