I do like the format of one general meeting a month (to discuss all sudo
room goings on) and then the other three meetings can be working/learning
meetings. Maybe with a 15-30 min talk of something of interest so that
we're all learning and sharing.
Patrik suggested the split between general meeting and working meeting and
it's helped us to slice up our time a little bit better to dive into
different topics/subjects. I have really enjoyed Sudo rooms recent
experiments with meeting formats though (I'm finding them more interesting
and more valuable personally).

You still need to define "working on what",

to waste a lot of time defining that in the moment.
General meetings still need structure, otherwise people lose sight of them
having any purpose and they tend to expand in scope and time length
geometrically.
I still think sudo room would do fine simply splitting out Bureaucracy
and the current general meeting, which actually runs quite well most of the
time.

That's a great idea.
Or, just separate the weekly meeting into general and working time blocks
so people can come to whichever they would like.

for the biohackers is a working meeting a hacking
meeting or a meeting
where business relating to the functioning of the group gets done? because
if it means the latter, then our meeting is supposed to be that :P
Typically more of the latter, because of the stage the bio group is at,
at the moment. But as long as we're making significant progress towards
having a functioning DIYbio lab, it's all good.
We also have a "general meeting" for the East Bay DIYbio group (every
last friday - coming up tomorrow!) that is more about making introductions,
exchanging cool ideas, socializing, etc. Which is also essential for
building a community, but if we only have that kind of meetings, we'd never
get any of the boring logistics done.
"General meeting" and "working meeting" is just what I've
started
calling them, and nobody has called me on it yet ;-) For the first "working
meeting", we set it up over email among some of the key members, because we
wanted it small and focused enough to actually get anything done. But I
think as long as we advertize that this is a *working* meeting, and that
people will be expected to contribute and get something done, they will
automatically self-select accordingly.
Maybe sudoroom needs a separate "general meeting" that is more
free-form, and not focused on rules issues etc? Heck, I might even come to
those! ;-)
