This is a page for hosting consensus items currently under debate, with their formal wording.

You might be looking for

  • the Draft Consensus Items page, instead? If your consensus item still drafty, in need of much revision, and not something that you think people already can more or less agree with.
  • Consensus Items History is the public record of consensus items that have been decided on in the past. Please move the records from the "Current" page to the "History" page once they've been approved/blocked.

May 23, 2023 Farley Updating blocking requirement for big C consensus items from 1 to 2 people. Currently in order to block a big C consensus Item, we need only 1 member to block.

Would like to update this number to 2 members. Perhaps the 1 member to block made sense when the community was tiny. It doesn't make sense anymore in our much larger community. If you cant convince anyone else to block with you, then maybe you just have bad ideas. The community should not have to make changes only folks with bad ideas think are good.

This change would be provisional for 3 months. Also would only apply for member proposed consensus items, non-member proposed consensus items would still be block able by a single member. Also only 1 member would be required to block new membership.

UPDATING ANTI-HARASSMENT POLICY and CODE OF CONDUCT

Noisebridge currently still uses policies from 2013. A lot has happened in the past decade that has increased awareness about creating a safe environment for all.

The alterations proposed are focused on reducing the generation of a hostile environment at Noisebridge that can negatively affect the user experience for a variety of members and visitors that are not part of the hegemonic social group.

A Google Doc containing the old and proposed wording that is open for edits is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/14BlMYh-i1CbzUGj_AaqaF-YI2sL4WNokhJxEbev0G-U/edit
