20190808 Plenum

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

• 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

Next Plenum: Thu, August 8th, at around 8PM

Stuff from the past

What was discussed at the last Plenum? What's the current status of those things? 20190728 Plenum

• Stuff on the walls: If something was removed the owner can put that up for discussion in the next plenum
• No news regarding the Laser exhaust
• Implementing something to vote online would be a good addition the the plenum $somebody wanted to evaluate some software until september
• Table saw: It's a 11 year old table saw. It's an Airfox dust collection and a Lutz (?!) cabinet saw for 350€.

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?

• No clear ruleset and especially new members would like some guidance (e.g. about storing stuff in the space)
• The trash pile at the door has been thrown away without notice
• We should improve documentation about stuff from the box, our ruleset and stuff
• If you notice something that isn't clear to you ask someone and write a sign for others
• Feeling uncomfortable with the German Kleingärtnerei and the Mindset to need a rule for every shitty thing. / people being offended by crap that isn't their own. / using the space as a coworking place. --BotoxBitch
• Awareness team should make sure that if they talk to somebody they make clear that they are on awareness team business

Drink dispenser

Aron did some measurements and it needs about 25-30€ per year in power.

Also the water from the tap had 20 degree and it cold one from the dispenser was 5 degree.

Bad vibes in the space

We've been noticing somewhat bad vibe and hostility in the space in the last few weeks, which was also brought to our attention by a number of members outside of our team. This concerns us and we would like to find a way to fix it. We would like to know who else shares these feelings, and whether there are any ideas on to how to address this? -- The Awareness Team

$people are complaining about Germans use of the space which feels like he's using the lab as a co-workingspace

Also it feels like you have to explain yourself to him when he's always here.

We voted and 12 voted for allowing co-working and 1 didn't vote.

Co-Working is ok as long as: You stick to the rules, you keep machine working spaces empty, you don't annoy others (with sounds, hour long phone calls, regular business meetings or whatever).

If you have issues with another person please talk to the awareness team of the members of the board. Mobbing will not be tolerated!

Reminder: Awareness-team has the permission to permanently ban members from the space and members from the board can ban permanently if needed.

Munich for Future

Do we want to be a public supporter ("Bündnispartner") of Munich for Future? --Tiefpunkt (talk) 08:35, 6 August 2019 (CEST)

• We don't need to do anything for it but we will be listed as a partner
• It's a statement to do something for the climate
• There is no political motivation

Two didn't vote, one is against and all others are in favor

Gear for CCCamp

We have a bunch of people going to CCCamp in two weeks and we'd like to take a bunch of stuff from the space, a little more than usual. Is that ok? There's a preliminary list at the CCCamp19 wiki page, we might need some more things. Stuff will be put into Stuff on a mission if we have it finalized. --Tiefpunkt (talk) 16:40, 7 August 2019 (CEST)

McCoffee

People are complaining that you need a password for the coffee machine.

Some people say it makes sense (because you get an introduction, you know how to clean it, ...), others say it doesn't.

We voted and most want the password to be removed. If that doesn't work out we will re-enable it. Jan will do it.

Things to Buy

Things to buy for projects related to the space.

• 15,50€ for earth nails for our CCCamp19 - Approved!
