 Start the meeting with a countdown timer on the table set for 2 hours.

Torrie is doing what she needs to do in the face of the continuing
bickering, deal making, personal agendas, ego-driven land grabs, and the
subtle obstructionism shown by some members over the floorplan.

In the face of complete chaos and a looming deadline, form a committee.

Yes, I am serious.

Following the philosophy of action as a do'ocracy, some motivated members
should assemble to discuss the floorplan and make a final decision.

Five people, with sharp pencils and blank paper, can sketch out a

start moving stuff into the designated areas.

The members will take it from there, knowing that a final floorplan exists.

If this doesn't sound like a workable solution, then just keep on bickering
and squabbling about where to put things or who gets his way about this or
that.

Of course, the opening day celebration might have to be moved to August 1st
if you keep up the noise level and refuse to cooperate with each other.

 Following the philosophy of action as a do'ocracy, some motivated members
 should assemble to discuss the floorplan and make a final decision.
 
 Five people, with sharp pencils and blank paper, can sketch out a
 compromise floorplan in under an hour.  Add another half hour for coffee
 and revisions.

This is an excellent idea. I think this could also be a wonderful experiment 
in an improved governance process for the space. Consensus is starting to fall 
apart.

There was recently a large thread on noisebridge-discuss along the very same 
lines. I will look at their discussion and see what happened.

I'm wholly in favor of such a committee producing a floorplan with this 
limited set of rules:

* The floorplan is binding on The Community until March 2nd at 00:00
* No significant modifications may be done to the floorplan after the 
floorplan is approved without majority approval from the committee members
* Any committee member may declare a modification to be significant such that 
it is required to be approved by the committee
* The floorplan shall not include anything that cannot be uninstalled, moved, 
disassembled, or otherwise modified over a two day weekend after March 3rd 
without unaminous approval from the committee members
* The committee is dissolved on March 2nd at 00:00
* Additions to the committee shall not change without majority approval from 
the committee members or a Membership proposal
* Committee discussion and voting is held on the build@ list
* The SYNHAK Secretary is responsible for maintaining the committee membership 
roster
* The roster and any other commitee records are made public to The Membership
* Only Active Members in Good Standing are permitted to be a committee member
* Committee members may resign at any time, only in writing to the committee

 
 After a decision has been made, print out a few copies to work from and
 start moving stuff into the designated areas.
 
 The members will take it from there, knowing that a final floorplan exists.
 
 If this doesn't sound like a workable solution, then just keep on bickering
 and squabbling about where to put things or who gets his way about this or
 that.
 
 Of course, the opening day celebration might have to be moved to August 1st
 if you keep up the noise level and refuse to cooperate with each other.

 There was recently a large thread on noisebridge-discuss along the

 I'm wholly in favor of such a committee producing a floorplan with this
 limited set of rules:

 * The floorplan is binding on The Community until March 2nd at 00:00
 * No significant modifications may be done to the floorplan after the
 floorplan is approved without majority approval from the committee
 members
 * Any committee member may declare a modification to be significant
 such that
 it is required to be approved by the committee
 * The floorplan shall not include anything that cannot be uninstalled,
 moved,
 disassembled, or otherwise modified over a two day weekend after March
 3rd
 without unaminous approval from the committee members
 * The committee is dissolved on March 2nd at 00:00
 * Additions to the committee shall not change without majority
 approval from
 the committee members or a Membership proposal
 * Committee discussion and voting is held on the build@ list
 * The SYNHAK Secretary is responsible for maintaining the committee
 membership
 roster
 * The roster and any other commitee records are made public to The
 Membership
 * Only Active Members in Good Standing are permitted to be a committee
 member
 * Committee members may resign at any time, only in writing to the
 committee

 
  After a decision has been made, print out a few copies to work from
 and
  start moving stuff into the designated areas.
 
  The members will take it from there, knowing that a final floorplan
 exists.
 
  If this doesn't sound like a workable solution, then just keep on
 bickering
  and squabbling about where to put things or who gets his way about
 this or
  that.
 
  Of course, the opening day celebration might have to be moved to
 August 1st
  if you keep up the noise level and refuse to cooperate with each
