This page is a to-do list for Board Members:

  • We need to take a bigger stake in the space organization. This is becoming a bigger issue by the day. I'm willing to help push some of this stuff through, if we can develop some consensus. I'll work with Mike and get this shit executed. - Laz
  • Finish 3D printer computer station, get software installed, etc.
  • Address hole in membership rules for visitors who are minors. Suggest letting them attend classes, but preventing using anything more dangerous than a computer keyboard without parental permission.
  • Come up with member and non-member pricing for machine time and consumables. - Let's rethink this. We don't want to end up being a job shop for other people. - On further thought, this would basically mean we are doing business with the public, and that's bad for us from a tax perspective. Let's just reserve this for members only. - Laz
  • Add procedure to membership rules for letting space out to third parties.


    • get set up on google maps we should be getting a postcard from google in the mail soon - Update: Seems I may need to resend this.


    • We need to come up with a thank you gift for the food donation. We probably need to come up with thank you gifts in general.
  • Group Order for t-shirts?
    • Who should run that?
    • Create a committee to select a shirt design (maybe encourage a vote for options)
    • Let's get our new creative director plugged into this option. I know that Adan and Repurposer were working on a neat shirt idea that they brainstormed during a KMBI session.
  • We need to plan ahead for the other events we want to attend as a group:
    • Example: we're registered to present at the Nashville Mini Maker Faire from way back and it's a weekend event with setup on Friday, September 20th. Are we going or should we cancel?
  • What is remaining to get done for our non-profit status?

Membership

    • check for outstanding keys
    • check for appropriate logins/access for all new members
  • Update membership mailing lists, etc
  • Review Key Situation
  • DISCUSS HOW TO DEAL WITH DELINQUENT MEMBERS

  • Also consider our newsletter to be a mailer to get in touch with the less computer-inclined folks. Direct marketing old school.
  • Webpage Updates
    • We probably need to get some sort of event registration thing integrated into drupal. Best case scenario, it even makes calendar events for us, but that's probably wishful thinking
