• ed thinks consensus minus one is a high bar, but the purpose of this proposal is to lower the bar a little
• to clarify this is consensus - 1 of the delegates, meaning that right now it would be 2 out of 7 who
• yar will say yes tomorrow

• most recent version: https://omnicommons.org/pipermail/consensus/2019-August/001822.html
• juul: seems reasonable
• yar: i see this as an automatic process that kicks in when there's an unresolvable impasse. so the limbo doesn't go on forever in the lack of consensus
• dante: good to try something different, the status quo wasn't working
• yar will say yes tomorrow

spaz

• dante: sudo sponsors spaz parties, including last friday night. lucas was point person for friday night but wasn't there.
• message from sudoroom to spaz: we love spaz parties but we cannot keep sponsoring those events unless you figure out how to keep control over your parties, in particular respecting the noise concerns and not disturbing the neighbors, avoiding alcohol without license & insurance (this includes BYOB), cleaning up for other events the next day, doing outside sound checks with a proper sound meter througout the evening and keeping a log of them that is then shared with sudo room, limiting attendance by counting in and out guests, and in general respecting and protecting the building from risk. Please do whatever communication you need in order to make this happen. Also, the working group should coordinate with SPAZ to have their meetings when SPAZ representatives have time to show up (e.g. not 5 pm when people are just getting off work). Please coordinate with each-other to ensure that a meeting happens before the next SPAZ event. People should be kept out of non-party areas (e.g. the ballroom, sudo/ccl area and upstairs). There can never be amplified music anywhere other than the basement after 11 pm on friday/saturday.
• marc: a hard limit on attendance would probably curtail most of these problems
• yar will send an email
