The Plenum is a regular meeting of all people involved with the space to talk about things, and decide stuff.

If you have stuff to add, go right ahead! Please sign your points with your name (by adding a "--~~~~" after your text).

Preamble

  • The Plenum is an institution to decide on what the space should look like, physically and in other ways, such as virtually.
  • Things concerning the space should be discussed at a plenum.
  • Everyone who's there can participate in that process, member or otherwise.
  • Everyone can head a plenum, no need for board members to do that.
  • Topics should ideally be announced on the Plenum wiki page beforehand
  • The Plenum should be held in a language that everyone participating understands.
  • Scheduling: second Thursday of the month at 8pm and last Sunday after the cleanup (which starts at 11am)

Next Plenum: Sunday, October 25th at 12pm-ish.

Topics for the Plenum

Disclaimer online plenum

Holding an online plenum is no new process and we will only do this do try it out during the time the space is closed. Doing online plenums in the future needs plenum approval. In case we decide to do online plenums in the future this acts as a proof of concept.

Anything you don't feel comfortable within the space? What would you like to change or to be changed?

Is there anything that's bothering you?


Someone brought a scroll saw and set it up in the workshop. There was no Plenum discussion about this. It is unclear if the saw is free to use. Meier (talk)

Personal project stuff and tools is/are popping up all over the space in drawers, on work benches and hidden in shelves. There is a clear intend of hiding it, which can only be can be interpreted as malicious behaviour. Meier (talk)

Someone attempted to repair the old boiler, even though we did stated no self-repair attempts in the last plenum. In addition, it was being left on the workshop workbench all week. --C22 (talk) 11:40, 25 October 2020 (CET)

Precious plastic bandsaw: This item is sitting in the workshop beeing not or rarely used for quite some time. A bandsaw like this one would be very useful in the shop but currently it is marked as do not use. I would like to make this tool available to the Lab. I propose to make it usable with approval (eg power plug lock or open unit state) to the space or to buy a similar machine owned by the lab (implying the current machine would have to go) Meier (talk)

Things for Newsletter, Social Media & Website News

  • Stuff that Georg built that was already posted

Things to Buy

Preview: We want to spend money on a new air compressor with higher capacity and that is more silent. With the new pressure pipe installation, compressed air is used much more than before. This means that the compressor is running much more often, causing noise pollution in the workshop.
