* '''Invite a knowledgeable volunteer to explain''' [[Noisebridge_Vision|what Noisebridge is about]]: "Noisebridge is a 501c3 nonprofit that provides a space for creation, collaboration, and learning about technology and creative projects. Noisebridge provides space, power tools, and infrastructure to help the public learn new skills and create cool things. Noisebridge continues to exist through and depends entirely on membership fees and donations. Our code of conduct is 'Be excellent to each other'."
prospective members name's get called and if they are present the membership form gets another check mark on its way to being a major supporter of noisebridge (IE A noizemember)
* '''Invite a knowledgeable volunteer to give '''[[Consensus Process|a brief primer on consensus process]]: We agree and so should you! Only paid-up members can block consensus.
* Introduce any new or unusual moderation techniques that you may be using during the meeting like: direct responses, limited speaking time, orderless stack, &c.
* Round of introductions (remember, announcements come later):
** What's your name,
** are you a member,
** what do you do, and
** if you are new: how did you hear about Noisebridge?


== Short Announcements ==
jon-jaq brings up community thrift account opportunity...


* Cool new projects? Something you'd like people to know? Say now, but keep it short!
== ./make ==
* Any happenings at the space of which members should be made aware.
* Funds in bank:
* Noisetor has $3565.45 in savings and is spending about $787/month and burning 500Mbps
Noisetor is Noisebridge's project to accept tax-deductable donations for USA donors that go towards setting up add'l exit nodes in the USA. More nodes will be added as month to month funds increase


== New or Stale Events ==
== ./make install ==
We discuss Fiscal sponsorship for the ZiP  zine:  enabling fundraising from tax deductable and avoiding fees from paypal are benefits of fiscal sponsorship
for more info look at fiscal sponsorship (add links here) 
there is agreement to resolve to discuss this further and make sure the treasurer is present.  R.A.Y.C brings up the idea of funding from local redev grants.  Leif counters that we should not be in the habit of relying on grants -- because noisebridge is member and donation supported and grants could change the direction. deb brings up the possibility of looking for smaller grants that allow nonprofits to retain independance and member driven focus.


* Is there anything new happening at the space?
secretary-adjunct brings up the $300 funding request for electronics area improvements
* Is there anything that has stopped happening at the space?
* If this is the first meeting of the month, review all the [[Category:Events | events at the space]] and try to weed out stale events.


== [[Membership Binder]] ==
== history | less ==
* '''Invite a knowledgeable volunteer to describe''' the [[membership]] application process.
* Read off any names from the binder for the past month. Write a check on every open application.
* Anyone eligible to join this week should
** introduce themselves,
** answer any questions members may have for them, then
** leave the area in search of gifts (traditionally beer and a lime, or cookies) for the rest of the group.
* The rest of the meeting should reach consensus on whether they may join.
* Remember to applaud new members when they return.
