Getting

When should we meet – brainstorm: Monday at 10:30, Evenings 5, 5:30, or 6,
Saturday, Thursday morning
- Chris: wonders about an afternoon meeting; is there another afternoon that would be better for Philip
- Philip: other than Tuesday evenings and all day Wednesday – any other afternoon, Philip would be willing to make some accomodations
- Ron: wonders about Friday; Philip is ok with Friday; Saturday might work except there are many Saturday events to work around
- Ron: wonders about leaving it on Wednesday and Thursday once a month – just changing it to evenings isn’t going to fix all of the problems; people may be able to figure out ways to change their schedules; Ron also thinks the Monday switch would be fine; a concern about the 4-5pm slot makes Ron worry that the group might dwindle but if we keep it while we are open, we might always be catching new people – feels more ocpish to do it this way
- Mark: there is no way to include everyone, the meetings during a normal ocp time with once a month Thursday seems fine
- Mike: likes the meeting on Wednesday, if working remotely works for Philip, there might be other ways for people not at ocp to be involved as well; this is working, we have people here, we are getting a quorum – this is mike’s biggest reason for keeping it as it is
- Ron: is there anyone that would like to see it on Monday?
- Philip: is fine with this video meeting plan so leaving it on Wednesday would work
- David: likes the idea of sticking with tradition, people know when this meeting is
- Ron: this might only be for this semester that Philip goes to Northern Va; if we don’t hear a proposal to change the meeting day/time, we will leave it as is
- Mark: Proposes we change this meeting to Monday at 10:30 and keep the 2nd Thursday of the month
- Michael: seconds this proposal
- Mark: likes the idea of Philip being here in person which works on Monday
- Mike: this is only for a calendar semester and we may need to change it again; issues like this come up a lot and the stability is important
- Ron: if Mike Farrand cannot be here on Monday, that would be a reason for Ron to stay with Wednesday;
- Amy, Gary Shelton, and Mike Farrand cannot be here on Monday
- Gary: Monday is a crowded day at OCP already and we close at 2 pm; Gary has to work on Monday and would like to be here, Friday – the place is shut down and the day seems open for a possibility for a meeting
- Matthew: has some reasons why he wouldn’t want to do it on Friday –
- Mike: wonders if we need to figure out how to change the thing that happens on Monday if we do decide to change this meeting
- Three voting for; seven voted against – this did not pass so we will stay with the Wednesday meeting at 10:30
- Mike: there is a list of many other things that are meaty; we could try to get to this topic but lets get to something more important
- Kris: agrees
- David: feels like a code of standards is important; thinks there should be something in place that you cant do certain things
- Philip: would like to see us move on to something else because this doesn’t seem like an exciting thing
- Mike: we will be dealing with some code of behavior of the larger ocp at some point; currently, we do all know something about good behavior and common sense
- Philip: would like to hear other people’s ideas
- Jonathan: would like to talk about how to get things on the agenda
- Mike: if we can address this quickly, mike would be behind talking about the agenda topic
- Matthew: would like to be able to explain his idea at some point
- Ron: there are a lot of ideas out there; we are trying to lay a foundation right now for how to get to these individual ideas; Heather said one day that we need a community meeting; maybe we need a second sort of meeting where people can put things on an agenda, but where is the cross-over with this meeting if we were to have a second sort of meeting;
- Deliverables: code of behavior, rules and regulations, purposes of ocp, framework for the community to govern itself; hours and access to building proposal; membership idea; revisiting teams as a way to get things done; programming and how this would work
- David: we need to get to where we are voting – maybe we should come up with a date by which we want to accomplish certain tasks – maybe we should come up with a 30 day plan
- Claude: agrees that we should try to pick one thing and work on it for 30 days
- Mike: there are two levels of discussion; one is the functioning of this group and the other is addressing the deliverables; maybe we can channel ideas under these broad categories so that as we get to the category, we have smaller ideas recorded; maybe at the beginning of each meeting we can get agenda items
- Ron: we have set out goals and we have been accomplishing them;
- Mark: has a suggestion about a community gathering
- Sadie: wants to see us talk about behavior
- Teig: what is good and bad behavior
- Ron: do we start with membership or do we start with purposes;
- Ron: seems like some energy around talking about purposes and non-negotiables; do we need specific purposes about this building that might be different than the larger ocp purposes
- Ron: next week we will start with a discussion about purposes and non-negotiables for next meeting – next Wednesday
