Re: [SH-Discuss] Meeting Minutes 5/13/14
Andrew
About point two:
I have never sat through an interview for SYNHAK let alone a job interview
that questioned the applicant about how a place they are joining works. All
the questions I have heard and wee asked of me were: cat or dog? What makes
you happy? What's your favorite drink? Operating system of choice?
If those were not accurate enough questions then I feel all the members who
had this line of questioning should be reinterviewed as well as the from
the beginning Hackers that didn't go through interviews
On May 15, 2014 12:34 AM, a l leit...@gmail.com wrote:
Sorry for the double post. I didn't want my comments to get mistaken as
meeting minutes. I tried to put headings on things in case people didn't
want to read a lengthy email
1) Apparently I wasn't clear with my wording regarding Wills membership. I
('the secretary') did not say that 'Everything is ok, and last weeks vote
is upheld.. What I said was Last week was a fairly involved interview,
you don't need to do that again. Be sure his(and AJ9's) memberships get
brought up. Meaning his membership needs voted/consented on properly at
this meeting.
That said: no one expressed any desire to block his joining and no one
protested at the meeting.
2) While AJ9's interview was a bit hostile those are important questions
that need asked more frequently by more people. If someone has no idea how
or why we govern the way we do how can we expect them to follow the rules
and help build a better community? Perhaps you could respond to the some of
the questions via email? Particularly consensus and do-ocracy. Feel free
disagree with them! We're an organic collaboration(or at least bill
ourselves as such), we won't grow if we don't get new ideas. On that note,
I'm going to add a question of my own: You mention you're interested in
non-profit work and need a cause to work with right now. What draws you to
SynHak compared to the other non-profits in the area?
3)Regarding the Community Working Group. There is already a proposal that
a few people have contributed ideas to. I feel that since this changes the
way we govern ourselves that it does warrant a full blown proposal. If we
want the suggestions to carry any weight when they are made it needs to be
part of the operating procedures. Xander brought up the idea of formalizing
the face to face mediation style and incorporating it into the proposal.
Having a few mediation templates is a great idea. My only concern is that
we not require them to be used. Getting the disputing parties to
communicate is goal 1A. How they do it is less important so long as they
both agree to it and it occurs in a timely manner.
I'm not convinced that using fractal groups will help. We are(were?) a
community, intentionally dividing us further seems counter productive and
bureaucratic. By having more mailing lists to subscribe to it makes it far
easier for a member to be out of the loop on things that may affect them.
People are lazy.
4) The front door. The landlord has told us not to modify it. Would we be
able to convince him to change his mind if we(or a mutually approved
price-quoted-prior-to-work contractor) replaced it in such a manner that
did not prevent the easy re-installation of the original door? We need to
balance our members physical safety with their perception of safety. By
installing a door with a push bar we could still 'lock' the door so outside
entry was not possible during the odd hours but in the event of a fire you
could get out.
5) If we're going to assign blame and distribute penalties to someone for
various signs, graffiti and other unexcellent behavior I want verified
proof.
6) Last one I promise. Will's key application. You're a new member and a
new face to the community. I like your enthusiasm and apologize that this
is going to come off as an attack, it is not. You want the keys to the
castle but a couple meetings back you were concerned with not knowing
anyone. 24/7 is a lot of trust. Not only that our key holders won't strip
the warehouse for machines and copper but that they'll lock up when they
leave and be excellent hosts to visitors from the public. I don't expect
everyone to know every other member as best friends but I find it hard to
put faith in someone we've just met.
Admittedly my recent and future attendance is lackluster so I welcome
people's anecdotes to instill faith in me about this.
One last time: None of the above are meant to be personal attacks. If any
wording can be construed as such I would appreciate it if you attribute to
poor proofreading, failure to appreciate the situation, and hasty word
choice.
regards,
Andrew L

If there are flaws in the logic of the proposal, or oversights I don't see why we can't talk about them here and at a meeting solely with the intent of polishing the idea. Consider this: Lots of people come to the Tuesday Meeting. Only some of those people are actually interested in resolving conflicts. Even fewer of our entire membership cares about building a mechanism for resolving conflicts. A number would rather instead inflict punishments for minor infractions: https://synhak.org/pipermail/discuss/2014-March/007790.html Therefore, the Tuesday meeting is not the best place to find folks who care about building mechanisms to resolve conflicts.

This written request MUST include information regarding: - the parties involved, - Concise explanation of the dispute - actions already taken to resolve the dispute - if no action has been taken, justification for inaction - desired method of resolution - preferred method of contact - schedule of availability Duties: After being petitioned the CWG will contact all parties involved within 14 business days via e-mail. This email will contain a summary of the complaint as well as suggested courses of action. For complex issues mediation will be arranged using a medium agreeable by both parties. Resolution: Depending on the nature of the issue the following actions may be taken to return to an inviting atmosphere. 1) The parties involved discuss their differences on their own. 2) The parties involved request a CWG representative to serve as moderator to ensure civil discourse and document resolution. 3) The parties involved request one or more CWG representatives to serve as mediators and provide active guidance and actively aid in resolution 4) The parties involved agree to non-binding arbitration wherein each party is given a chance to voice their concerns and the arbiter(s) suggest a course of action to the parties involved 5) The membership requests intervention on the behalf of one or more parties. CWG representatives establish context for the conflict and make suggestions to the Board of Directors and/or membership whom make a final binding ruling on the conflict. The CWG will make reccommendations for courses of action to the parties involved, the Board of directors, or the Membership of SynHak, as the situation merits. - The CWG cannot be used to exercise punative measures. This power lies with the Board of Directors and the Membership. - It is not the role of the CWG to initiate contact with law enforcement officials based on petitions brought to the CWG. - CWG volunteers reserve the right to decline their services on the grounds of conflict of interest or if they believe their involvement would expose them to risk. - Proxies may not be established for any of the parties involved.

Re: [SH-Discuss] [SYNHAK-Announce] Board meeting 5/5/2014 7pm
I'm sorry I was trying to stay out of this conversation because I feel like my points are always misconstrued over the mailing lists but I have to say something now. SYNHAK does not live and die by Torrie Fischer. We are not trying to get rid of her through removing her from her office. I can't speak for all of us but I know that most respect Torrie for her major contributions to SYNHAK. This board meeting was called because some of the membership are very VERY upset in how she is treating her office she hasn't been removed yet and we can not guarantee that she will be removed. But there are quite a few unhappy members. SYNHAK is having some internal problems right now. I was saying that we are going through some growing pains and like a child growing into an adult there are some painful moments where the body must stretch and change to accommodate as such. But the pains we are suffering now are not growing pains they are pains from a cancerous growth. (I never thought I would say something like this because I like Torrie I think for the most part Torrie has great ideas , is a very creative person, and a fun person to hang out with.) There obviously is a problem. She is perceiving hatred and judgment about personal issues when the majority of the time there isn't any judgment. The only judgment now is people judging her on her over reactions. The only fires at SYNHAK are a result of Torrie hold a magnifying glass over problems until the combust. If Torrie does get voted out of office there are people who are willing to step up and fill the void . if Torrie does decide to leave and burn SYNHAK down as she goes We will survive we will rebuild.

Re: [SH-Discuss] Proposal: Keys and Dues
The issue of the family discount and keys was consensed on and passed on Tuesday. As it reads in the minutes the policy is what we agreed on at the sub committee meeting except that Robert Walter was grandfathered in with the ability to apply for a key. We then went through the proper steps of his application where in after discussion with the membership, himself, his mother and grandfather the membership consensed and he received a key. He will never be in the space with put his mother or father or other responsible guardian present. He also understands that the key is his and he can not share it with anyone else. no one at the meeting blocked the idea of Robert having a key. The student discount and senior discount were not included in Torrie's proposal. Why?I'm not sure I remember discussing it at the meeting but honestly it slipped my mind during the weekly meeting. if you so wish you can write up a proposal and we will go through the measures of consensus. ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@synhak.org https://synhak.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Patnode ppatn...@gmail.comwrote: TWIMC at SH, Since I have been isolated on my private island for the past week or so, I may have missed some details. If anybody is interested, here is my position and thoughts on several of the points under discussion about membership, dues, and key access. dues * regular rate of $35 per month for anybody over age 18 * discount rate for families - $35 per month for first adult, plus $15 per month for each additional person over age 18, plus $5 per month for kids under age 18 * discount rate for high school and college students - $15 per month * discount of 10% off the monthly amount for pre-payment of 3 or more months for any membership, paid in advance What happened to the long-discussed senior discount? I brought up the issue way back in Oct or Nov at one of the first weekly meetings I ever attended, but no definitive action has ever been taken. *I suggest that a senior discount be established at the rate of $25 per month. * *membership* * should be open to all, with exceptions, subject to approval by the existing membership * should be denied to illegal immigrants, convicted felons, known drug users, and anybody on the Ohio/any other state sex offenders list * should be suspended for members who have not paid their dues after 30days and rescinded permanently if the dues are not paid after 90days. *key access* * should be available to all active members (over age 18) in good standing, on written request and after a discussion of the request at a weekly meeting, with an open vote or consensus by members present (unanimous vote required) * should be available to one or both of the parents/guardians of an active member under age 18 in good standing - the member can have the key, but can only use it when accompanied by their parent or guardian * should be immediately rescinded and the key recovered from any member who fails to lock the building (front door and/or garage door) on exit, if they are the person responsible for closing the space * should be immediately rescinded and the key recovered from any member who shares the key with anybody else not authorized to have key access --- I am in full agreement with the comment by Andrew about minors and their parents/guardians while at the building. A minor should never, ever be left alone in any area of the space (except the bathroom), but must be under constant supervision by the parent or guardian or a member (as chosen or approved by the parent or guardian). Members present should not be expected or encouraged to babysit the younger members while the parent is outside smoking/chatting/stargazing or engaged in their own project, ignoring the kid. For example, if Robert (age 7) would like to have a 2x4 sawed in half on the chop saw, I would be happy to do it for him, subject to approval by Rob or Jenny. If Robert wants to help paint a wall, I would be happy to have him on the painting team while Rob or Jenny is off doing something else. Feel free to reply or comment in person.

[SH-Discuss] Silent auction
I plan on sharing my ideas for the silent auction at the meeting tomorrow. It would be really beneficial to the planning of this event if my fellow hakkers came up with lists of companies local and otherwise to solicit donations from. I have letters to send to these companies after I verify the location and finalize the date of the event. Things to keep in mind for donations: 1.tangible gifts bring in more money then vouchers I.e. a basket containing a bottle of wine and glasses from a local winery would fetch more cash then a voucher for a free tour of the same winery. 2. Any small donation can be combined with others to make bigger gifts I.e. a gift card to a hotel , a restaurant and a bottle of wine can be put on a basket to make a date night basket. 3. We will have a variety of guests so we should have a variety of gifts fun gifts for single folks as well as families 4. Also I would like to request donations from members I.e I would donate a skirt or piece of jewelry , g could donate a boat ride and picnic on the lake etc. This is a huge endeavor and I can't plan it alone.

If a piece of equipment is tagged with a vinyl Noisebridge sticker, the general assumption is that it means This particular thing is the property of Noisebridge and you should really take care of it for everyone! Different concept from DNH, but thats the background behind purchasing stickers. For an example of one such Noisebridge sticker, check the back of my laptop or phone. No need to pay an outside vendor for something you can do yourself on your computer or one of the many computers at SH or the Main library. It is cheaper and easier to make stickers or signs by yourself, as needed. If you want sticky, print the sticker/sign on full-adhesive paper. If you want the rainbow effect, print the sign/sticker in color.

Included are shots of Tim S, Andrew L, Martin P, Chris N, and a guy named Warren. There are three photos of the three-wheeled, battery-powered, remote-controlled Rover made by Martin P. Because of his medical training and experience, there is a rumor that he might try to convert it into a mini-ambulance for dogs and cats needing remote controlled transportation to the vet. The Rover would go to the accident site, pick up the injured animal, and scoot down the sidewalks and back alleys to the animal hospital - with all the movements being controlled by Martin as he relaxes in his leather Lazy-Boy. There are a few shots of the GARC robot on a table and some of it in action on a movie screen. Tim was kind enough to take the time to discuss the robot with me and show me two movies from the competition it was part of. Also, there are two photos of the air-powered robot owned by Andy B. Feel free to view, copy, share, or print any of the photos, as long as you are doing so in a personal, non-commercial way.

Re: [SH-Discuss] SYNHAK Drug Policy
I don't see a problem with asking people not to do things. I don't see why before this weeks meeting we send out a message saying something along the lines of if you are going to have a beer out two save it for after the meeting . and if you choose to drink during the meeting that is un excellent to the rest of the hakkers in the meeting. Hopefully people respect that. Which I feel like most of our regulars will.

This can be resolved individually with mediation (if necessary)instead of with legislation. Is this now grounds for policy creation? If so, I'd like to outline a few other points that could fall in this realm: 1: The parking lot across the street is private parking and does not belong to Synhak. People who park there but are not authorized to do so may be towed. Do we need to have a parking policy now? 2: The military recruiting office is 50ft from our door, there is no smoking within 50ft of a government building. Do we need designated smoking areas? 3: I've seen people pull out their personal laptops to show me something and in the background I see a torrent application running. They could be downloading cracked operating systems, music, movies, TV shows (all of which I've heard discussed at Synhak) which is illegal and logged on our ip address. Do we need an acceptable use policy to use our internet access? Devin, I'm not trying to side-step your suggestion, I'm not even against the idea of saying we don't condone that type of thing (because, really, I don't condone it so long as it remains against the law). What you're suggestion is indicative of the fact that there is no formal statement from Synhak on the subject. I'm trying to come up with a resolution that doesn't come off as Synhak has a substance problem (because Synhak does NOT), that protects the organization's interest, and requires little effort to implement or the need to go back and change as society changes. What I don't want is to foster a climate where if a person has a problem with something or someone, that they point their finger and say You fix it. It is the antithesis of a hackerspace. Individual responsibility and community are paramount at Synhak and using the board to address minor issues between a few individuals with general legislation is a detriment to future of how Synhak is governed/operates. The only time the police should ever be involved at Synhak is when someone refuses to leave when asked by a Champion or other officer. Since the dawn of time, we've all stressed that the board exists simply so that SYNHAK, Inc exists as a legal entity in the eyes of the State of Ohio. The Membership has always been in charge. I mean, whats the point of having weekly meetings, consensus, champions, mediation, excellence, and everything else associated with our governance process if the board feels that they're free to jump in at any time and decide what is best for us all?

Re: [SH-Discuss] Little Archimedes/Aristotles
I think it would benefit us to talk to some people with experience with summer youth programs (Suzie graham who use to run Lock 3 summer arts experience , Wendy Duke of miller south and a few others I have in mind) . Take the remainder of the year to make contacts , get comfortable in our new space,perhaps find funding set up open DNS incase the kids are on the computers , make detailed plans for the program and launch it next year. This would give us chances to come up with lesson plans and test them out on a group of volunteer kids ( children, friends and family members of synhakers) so we can see the lessons carried out like a tech rehearsal for a play . Perhaps come up with a survey to distribute to a few schools to be sent home with kids asking key questions like: 1. When in the summer would be best for your family? 2. What time during the day? 3.would you as a parent want to chaperone the program? 4. Under proper supervision would you be comfortable with your child using tools such as drills, soldering irons, computers?

He has stated an interest in renaming the program to Lil' Archimedes. The way I worded it in the minutes does not accurately reflect the announcement or conversation that followed thereafter. I apologize for the inaccurate wording causing drama. The above line item more accurately reflects what happened last night. Beth, Matt's announcement was not that he is tearing the program out from under you, throwing away the work you've done, torching the concept, and creating his own kids' program. He simply offered to help run it. I would recommend that Beth and Matt contact each other outside of the list to resolve any communications issues that aren't being solved here. To clarify on the use of the word office, I apologize for that. I misused a word that has a defined meaning within SYN/HAK's governmental structure, apparently implying to some people that the person running the program in question held some sort of elected, official position within SYN/HAK. This is not the case. The proper term to use to describe the person running the program would be maintainer, since we have a definition for that word which more accurately matches the role Beth holds in regards to Little Aristotles.

Another examle of this is the Speaker's Bureau. When SYNHAK was just getting started, the Bureau was the first project I put together. After a while, I got too busy and totally neglected it so someone else stepped up and ran it for a bit. They too abandoned it, so I jumped in again, though this time I'm trying to run it like a real project by piecing out the work to whoever steps up.

Re: [SH-Discuss] SynHak Renovations Fundraiser
What can we sell at a silent auction ? we are a fracking maker space!! there are tons of possiabilities for what we could sell. I started writing out plans for a silent auction last night after talking with Andy. This isn't an instant solution but it is defiantly one we can do a couple months down the road. examples of what could be sold are (these are all hypothetical these rant actual required donations) : - I could donate a skirt that i made ... Probably a star wars one because people seem to love it (valued at $40) -Beth could donate a necklace and ear ring set -Nicole could donate one of her metal pieces -Matt Smallwood and Steve IV could donate a free consultation plus a coupon for $100 of a service from Brewbeck IT services -using the magical interwebs i could print out a few cookie cutters on the 3d printer and make a baking gift basket that probably would in the end cost me no more then $10. -Torrie if she so desired could donate a tiny robot or something - G could offer a picnic and boat ride out on the lakes which would just cost him the picnic supplies gas and a few hours out on his own boat ( my grandmother has a pontoon and auctions the same thing off at the African Sky silent auction every year) -Omar could put together a laptop that has been donated that would be good enough to play video games on it load a copy of portal on to it and put portal related items into a basket and auction off that. - Matt Smallwood could auction of a curry dinner for 6 at the winners house where he goes to their house one night and prepares and serves dinner. ( my father use to auction off a pasta dinner for the knights of Columbus every year) - Devin could put together a paintball basket with a $5 gift card to a paint ball range,a small thing of amunition, a few monster and a camo hat. ( all this stuff we could probably get as a donation from location) -we could contact local art students from U of A, Firestone and Miller South or professional artists like PR Miller and Don Drumm and ask them to donate works of art . again these are just ideas not one person has to donate exactly what i said just brainstorming ideas to get those cogs turning. This is not an instant fundraiser it would take at least 2 months to plan and launch. the most expensive part we face is location, food, and drink we could have it at the space if we can hold off on loud hacking for a night and make the space presentable. food we can either have members make food or we can buy a frack ton of stuff from GFS like meatballs , egg rolls, little smokies we also need to serve booze we don't need a full bar but we need an open bar and two nicely dressed hackers to hand out the beer and wine. I was thinking we could go totally local and get maybe donations or discounts from the hopping frog, the thirsty dog ,the Ohio brewing company, and wineries like the red horse which is in Barberton and the winery at wolf creek also in Barberton.

You can pay a structural engineer to design something if you want, but if that wall were to come down too many lawyers would be involved. Please do not do that. We can talk about it at a later date. Also I have not received notice that the utilities have been changed into your name. This is a violation of your lease. Please handle that right away. Any bills from this point forward send to me will be your responsibility. If I have to pay them I will have to charge a processing fee. Please get this done ASAP. Please send any other question to me when you have them.

Summit st. questions. Hello Pat, As we get further along with the renovations I would like to get your input on several projects we have coming up. First off we have removed the wall that divides the lunch room from the main office area as per your approval. We are now looking at removing the wall and adjoining closet that separate the small office from the rest of the now larger lunch room. I do not wish to hurt the resale value or usefulness of the property in the event SYNHAK Inc. does not purchase this property. Please advise. We are also in talks about adding windows to the top half of the south facing wall (the long wall). My concern is the wall movement that is centered on the exhaust vent becoming amplified. Also please advise. I have asked Mr. and Mrs. Herman to edit their sublease to reflect Blue Crab Ventures as the land owner. I will forward you the final copy as soon as I receive it. Thanks for your attention, Devin Wolfe.

Re: [SH-Discuss] SynHak Renovations Fundraiser

I started writing out plans for a silent auction last night after talking with Andy. This isn't an instant solution but it is defiantly one we can do a couple months down the road. examples of what could be sold are (these are all hypothetical these rant actual required donations) : - I could donate a skirt that i made ... Probably a star wars one because people seem to love it (valued at $40) -Beth could donate a necklace and ear ring set -Nicole could donate one of her metal pieces -Matt Smallwood and Steve IV could donate a free consultation plus a coupon for $100 of a service from Brewbeck IT services -using the magical interwebs i could print out a few cookie cutters on the 3d printer and make a baking gift basket that probably would in the end cost me no more then $10. -Torrie if she so desired could donate a tiny robot or something - G could offer a picnic and boat ride out on the lakes which would just cost him the picnic supplies gas and a few hours out on his own boat ( my grandmother has a pontoon and auctions the same thing off at the African Sky silent auction every year) -Omar could put together a laptop that has been donated that would be good enough to play video games on it load a copy of portal on to it and put portal related items into a basket and auction off that. - Matt Smallwood could auction of a curry dinner for 6 at the winners house where he goes to their house one night and prepares and serves dinner. ( my father use to auction off a pasta dinner for the knights of Columbus every year) - Devin could put together a paintball basket with a $5 gift card to a paint ball range,a small thing of amunition, a few monster and a camo hat. ( all this stuff we could probably get as a donation from location) -we could contact local art students from U of A, Firestone and Miller South or professional artists like PR Miller and Don Drumm and ask them to donate works of art . again these are just ideas not one person has to donate exactly what i said just brainstorming ideas to get those cogs turning. This is not an instant fundraiser it would take at least 2 months to plan and launch. the most

I may have two more machines available in the near future. It just depends. However, there are a couple of things I would like to do with some of the parts I have removed. Each machine has 3 small stepper motors, just like the ones on the 3-D printer. Each printer takes 4. The machines also have 4 out runner motors which are the size that 600 size RC helicopters are using. The first thing I would like to do is make a 3-D printer. The second thing I would like to do is make a quad copter with the out runner motors. I am curious if any one else might be interested in also building a 3-D printer as maybe a group project; meaning, each person in the group is actually building a 3-D printer. So if there are 4 of us in this group, there will be four 3-D printer completed and running at the end of the project. And the same would be true of the Quad copter project group. Is there any interest in something like this??? -- Take Care and Have Fun Always.
