=Announcements=
?
= Conflict updates =
==Rayc==
* Ryan (mediator between rayc): rayc has not contacted Ryan.
==Nic==
*Elliot does not want to share space with him, non-engagement with
st.nic, would like the SSP to be enforced w/ the language he's used and
people he's hurt in the space
* juul: you are willing to do mediation as long as you don't have to
meet with him in person?
* elliot: yes, and with the temporary band that that mediation is done
offsite,
* matt: both people off-site?
* elliot: it's my understandin that he's banned pending mediation
* matt: it's not ambiguous, it's exactly what's happening, they're
banned during mediation
* rachel: here here
==Doc==
*Rachel: Doc has not contacted and did not show up last time, but I was
15m late, though I notified people. I think it's worth calling, but the
longer the more time there is to process and grow before going through
with mediation. I will call again
*elliot.....
*matt: i think this is heresay and we should discuss it at the
appropriate time
*rachel: agreed
*juul: okay
* Does Doc have a Conflict Steward? We really need to have both roles
filled. The Steward ensures conflict mediation meetings happen and that
they're documented, and helps give updates
* Not yet, does anyone volunteer?

** this is being rerouted to a preliminary conversation between
Welcoming Committee and La Commune. it has been removed from the pad as
it was not consensed to be there by Welcoming WG. - jenny
**okay, everyone in welcoming seemed all behind do-acratically doing it,
Niki at first, but then she alerted me to la commune's concerns
** i for one am totally behind it, that's not the point. we should
operate by full consensus whenever possible, and bring things to
delegates for consensus once it's fully vetted.
**to work with la commune before posting it to the meeting?
** yeah! i just sent an email with your proposal to welcoming and la
commune folks <3
**yeah, i wanted to send it to delegates for that reason, but you're
totes right, this is smooter and specifically respectful
** btw i love that you made a fucking sketchup model ;)
**thanks :)
