hi everyone, we had a totally different kind of meeting tonight! it was simultaneous with dinner, with all of us loosely sitting and/or standing around the table, with informal facilitation, a rarely consulted agenda with a final check over the agenda to fill in notes and see if we missed any items. unfortunately, we still didn't have the financials included in the meeting, and a few things had not been followed up on from last time, but that's okay. we're getting better ;) so here are the rough rough notes!: *Check out the Meeting archives here: ** https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Meeting_Minutes*<https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mee… ''June 19 2013 Attending: [List Attendees] Len, Jenny, Max, Jordan, Bill, Ray, Timon, Marina, Jamie, Alex, Morten, Troy, Sarah, Sam *==Introductions==* ''*Let's get to know each other!*'' Co-Facilitator: [List Co-Facilitator] * Introduction to purpose and format of this meeting *Brief personal intros (< 20 sec per person)* * [Go-around topic] performed 1/3 of the way in once we had a lot of people and enough people who didn't already know each other. *Icebreaker (10 min)* * [Pair/small group discussion on a topic.] eating dinner. *==Announcements (Consent Agenda)==* *''Use this section to briefly announce and consent to items that need no more details or discussion''* Co-Facilitator: [List Co-Facilitator] (< 8 minutes) performed haphazardly throughout the night! :( :\ - This Sat/Sun: Workshop Weekend! workshopweekend.net - Patrick - clay.
