			Hey Sudoers,

			I'd like to submit a proposal in advance of a meeting next *Wednesday,
			January 11th at 8 PM:*

			The proposal: I propose we organize working groups for membership,
			facilities, finances, promotion, and general administration.

			The goals: I think we should focus in 2023 on bringing in new people.
			Hosting more events. Finding new sources of revenue like grants. Organizing
			the tools, repairing the roof, and installing a mezzanine. I think all of
			these would be more attainable if we had a bit of structure that makes it
			easier for new people -- and old! -- to find similarly minded collaborators
			and organize and communicate to do these things collaboratively.

			The details: I see three elements to this proposal, which I'm listing to
			make it easier to offer suggestions or alterations:

			1) I think we should define a set of core functions which require
			coordination: membership, facilities, finances, promotion, and
			administration (miscellaneous general operation).

			2) I think we should promote coordination by establishing working groups,
			primarily consisting of an email list and a wiki page, but with broad
			leeway in how each group wants to organize and communicate. The facilities
			working group could decide to set up a Discord channel. The building group
			could choose to have regular in person meetings. The admin group could
			operate mostly on Signal. These don't have to be dictated in this proposal,
			as long as everyone knows how to get in touch with these working groups.

			3) I propose that participation and role assignment be presumed open, but
			managed by the groups themselves. I am actively choosing not to propose
			that they groups have a leader or a minimum number of participants, or a
			qualification to join. As proposed, I imagine anyone who likes fixing 3D
			printers when they clog can sign up for the facilities working group and
			now they're an equal member to everyone else. But if the membership working
			group is just one person answering new member questions, that's fine. The
			finance group and promotion group will presumably set guidelines on who has
			login credentials for accounts. Under this proposal, anyone can join any
			group and no member of a group has elevated privileges unless they
			establish them by consensus separate from this proposal.

			What do you all think? Would you like to join any of these groups? I'd like
			to get lots of feedback and then discuss this next Wednesday to incorporate
			the feedback received over email.

			Cheers,
			Andy
