[sudo-discuss] new members

I am so excited at how many new members we've been getting! I heard that tonight there were *fifteen* new member applicants! Back in the fall, we wrote a script for new member applications: https://sudoroom.org/wiki/New_Member_Script I've been taking an extended break from Sudoroom organizing for self care reasons, but I still care a lot about the community and culture of our space. I think they are the most unique and important things about Sudoroom. That is why we added questions like: * What do you think about Sudoroom's values? * What do you know about Sudoroom's history? I notice that a couple months ago we edited the script to make these questions *optional*, and from reading the meeting notes, it's not clear that any of our new members is being asked these questions! Do most people feel like these are less important? Am I the only one?
