Agenda
discussion about maker faire event
- notes not taken
- jake: safe space ban is a de-escalation method, the ban is to only diffuse a situation. this was not discussing something in heat of the moment
- alex: current process is, safe space ban takes effect, then mediation. never really happens, the people just leave. do you want mediation?
- jake: im open to mediation. but i request in future that something like this goes through the delegates because its a cross-collective issue
wheelchair lift
- jake: nothing up there to block the way, and someone could get injured. yar said shed do it and the server, not happening. not trying to make conflict. i will draw up something more pallatable and submit it.
The proposed bylaw changes
- alex: dont have quorum so cant vote on it.
- link to changes https://github.com/sudoroom/omni-bylaws/commit/ceb2f811983173dfa5aee4843cc22e7eeca2fa85
- discussion about wanting to make the bylaws closer to what we do day-to-day. that's what seems to be what most changes are. no objections.
SR funds
- jake: i checked and through sudo humans we are getting $1200 per month. I didnt check but usually a few hundred more from the paypal. at some point we will need to reach out to people to pay more in membership
Deb Gives membership
- everyone present in approval
Any updates on our financial situation
- jake: there is someone who would be a major part of the LLC. i tried to move things forward with them and they asked a specific question, want documents from our trust as a template for their own trust. i dont know that we have this document already. MY q: does someone in omni has this document?
- alex: at face value, it implies a lack of seriousness.
- jake: hopefully it doesnt cost too much for volunteers to pipe in with answers. maybe this funding source could be used with CAST
- alex: CAST's attitude is that they need to know the funder.
- jake: yes that could happen
- jake: im focusing on this person because they have such a large portion they could contribute
request from fundraising to make a one-pager on sudo room stuff
- paige: pallavi asked us to make this. anyone want to help?
- eric: yes i can volunteer
- jake: can you post an email
- paige: yes
keycard system
- paige: there was a request to make time-restricted door access keycards [should've said web access]
- alex: that isn't too hard to do. Another question though,is it worth putting time and effort into keycard if we are going to rip it out?
- jake: this is just for web access, scripting and chron jobs, not the door jam. cgi script. not too difficult
- alex: i know because i wrote it. have you forgotten that?
- jake: no i just am clarifying its the web door access not keycard, not magstripes. of course you know how to do that stuff. it might be easy. web link. totally different system. i like having multiple because if one fails the other works. arduino is same thing activated by the beaglebone and the... if we do rfid, esp, trigger solenoid separate from arduino. total backup system. i can think of a number of ways but not volunteering. user interface portal is what i like to work on
- paige: why is it a different system?
- jake: better that way, more reliable
fire inspection for ballroom capacity increase
- we are just waiting on the updated evac maps and need to get rid of one couch that is in the entry hall
