| | | | |
| | === Minutes === | | === Minutes === |
| | + | ==== Review ==== |
| | + | ===== Sat-Dish ===== |
| | + | Issue is still cables that need to go in and out of the building, nobody present was really in the know about that issue. |
| | + | Also, we don't know who should have asked the commune to drill the hole. |
| | | | |
| − | == May 7 == | + | ===== Circles ===== |
| − | === Minutes === | + | Circles are done, pins are there, all that needs to be done is to paint the wall. |
| − | There were no topics planned but several people had some points to bring up
| + | [[User:Lala|Lala]] will see if they still have some white paint left. |
| | + | We also need to apply some paste first for the screws and joints. |
| | | | |
| − | * There are not many people registered to the Strossen Wibbelt event on 15 may (i.e. next sunday). There we will build throwies on our provided booth and do geocaching activities. Spontaneously several more people registered right away so that this activity can be run nicely.
| + | ===== Internet Connection ===== |
| | + | The locker wasn't checked for the the letter that ought to be sent. [[User:Sim0n|Sim0n]] checked during the meeting. |
| | + | A copy of the letter has gone over the office mailing list. [[User:Mich|Mich]] will check whether he will find the letter on his disk. |
| | + | The letter needs to be signed and sent away. |
| | | | |
| − | * Note that next sunday the access to syn<sub>2</sub>cat headquarters may be difficult because of "Strossen Wibbelt" the road will be closed.
| + | ===== SSL-Cert letter ===== |
| | + | Though [[User:Trollchen|Trollchen]] announced to write that letter in two weeks from last Bootstrap, but no letter was written. |
| | + | [[User:Kwisatz|Kwisatz]] has thus taken up the task. |
| | | | |
| − | * CCC camp: Marc has organized a camping van. There are 2 sports left. THose were taken by fellow attendees of the meeting. Van is full now.
| + | ===== Calendar ===== |
| − | The camp theme will be OASIS. On the way there some other hackerspaces will be visited. Trip goes from 8 - 15 august.
| + | [[User:Gunstick|Gunstick]] brought a wooden pane where the calendar could be glued to. |
| − | ** Pleas bring up ideas for stuff to present at the camp!
| + | We will do that tonight. |
| | | | |
| − | * From a TED talk came the idea to have noise free hours in the lab. The need to have some silence when working in lab is there, but there was no consensus of how to implement this.
| + | The same restrictions as for the circles apply, ie. the wall should be painted first. |
| − | In general it would be nice to try not to annoy people with useless noise (yelling, music ...)
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * What about cyberpunk fridays? Those should be set up spontaneously by anyone who is present at the space. Just watch a movie if you feel like it.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * cleanspace day: the last cleaning day was a full clean, moving furniture out to wipe the floor. This should be done every 4 months. In between there can be classical cleanings for vacuuming, cleaning kitchen and toilets.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | And please don't schedule those days on holidays as several people won''t be able to attend.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The lab room got new cabling and there was an idea to have extractable lan cables. The idea was rejected as we would have to buy them whereas we get as many LAN cables as we want for free.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * The ubuntu release party was not well publicized to the press. This should be better handled in the future. Send press kits out before the event. Just twitter and facebook does not work for normal press channels.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * talks and workshops:
| + | |
| − | ** annound them on the mailinglist
| + | |
| − | ** reach out to general public to gather attendees
| + | |
| − | ** don't restrict on technical subjects, but other themes are interesting too like cooking, plants, music.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * remeber that the soldering workshop will be happening in 2 weeks time...
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * there is a new money box on the soldering table. This is when you use items from the electronics stock for you own use that you put some money back. Soon there will be prices fixed to the drawers so you know how muck that couple of elkos costs.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * some items are needed
| + | |
| − | ** a classic drill
| + | |
| − | ** an hot air gun
| + | |
| − | ** a hair dryer (hot air is for some actions too hot)
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * the harware wishlist should be rearranges and made more easily readable for non members if people want to donate stuff. An idea to categorize is a needed / nice to have separation, as well as a section for more technology oriented items and one for general household items.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * next hackids is on 7th june about solar bots. If you have or know kids interested, register them! The last hackids had no attendees...
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | == April 2nd ==
| + | |
| − | === Topics ===
| + | |
| − | * Faccat and Spila merger evaluation
| + | |
| − | * Donation policy: A member who brings something to the space MUST take the tim.e to find a safe and out of the way place for it.
| + | |
| − | * Acquire a ultra sonic cutter. This tool could be used for plastic cutting. You can see demo video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcA2qQvGoF8 , product page is here http://www.mmech.com/ultrasonic-cutters/honda-usw-334 (Kris)
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Minutes ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | There was no Present your Project.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * Faccat and Spila merger evaluation
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | No meeting has happened until now, so nothing new to report. Both groups should do a meeting together.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * Donation policy: A member who brings something to the space MUST take the time to find a safe and out of the way place for it.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Currently most lockers are full. To make place, everyone should only use one case. To make this easier, members should use the wooden lockers. The hardware will be stored in the steel lockers.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | First there have to be rules what can be brought to the space. See the various wish lists on [[Infrastructure]] for some ideas.
| + | |
| − | Also that page and the [[Wishlist]] should be reworked so that we have a single page to refer people to when the donation question arises.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | In final people are ok that [[Space_Infrastructure,_Library_%26_Acquisitions|Spila]] should organize this. Some ideas were brought up how to handle this:
| + | |
| − | ** have one box labeled "/tmp" or "incoming" where new items land in. SpiLa will sort it in where it belongs.
| + | |
| − | ** Unneeded items will be put onto the table in the hallway. Members can collect there items they might use for themselves or a project. Unclaimed objects will get garbage collected.
| + | |
| − | ** Pictures of new stuff arriving and old stuff scheduled for removal should be put on the mailing list for information. This is already done mostly of the time and is a good practice.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * Acquire a ultra sonic cutter.
| + | |
| − | This is going to cost almost 300€ for an item with not a so great field of application. E.g. would it be possible to cut PCBs with it? After a small vote the were 2 in favor, 4 against and 4 neutral. Some suggestions were to try building such a devide yourself or use a heated piece of metal to cut through plastic. DO NOT use a soldering iron, because this will ruin the tip.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Facilities_%26_Catering
| + | |
| − | * club mate order is delayed because of production problems. Should arrive monday. New kind of juice as trial: Fritz Limo.
| + | |
| − | * self building road signs instead of buying expensive professional ones
| + | |
| − | * We checked the roof. There is a possibility to put the sat dish and also a way to hang a banner from the roof. That banner should have in big friendly letters "hackerspace" to make the building look less like a school.
| + | |
| − | * relighting the lab: the lab, by night, is not looking as cool as the chill room. Some colorful lights are needed. Also dimmable lights would be nice.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Space_Infrastructure,_Library_%26_Acquisitions
| + | |
| − | * new books were added
| + | |
| − | * lockers rearrangement planned (see above)
| + | |
| − | * clean out unneeded items
| + | |
| − | * decorate outside (see FacCat)
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Press_%26_Public_Relations
| + | |
| − | * the first batch of stickers is a failure, they need to be redone
| + | |
| − | * there are now stats on the blog
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Future_Events_%26_Developments
| + | |
| − | * the same topics are still current (ubuntu party, idea talk ...)
| + | |
| − | * the cyberpunk friday is not happening very often. Anyone can decide what to show and invite.
| + | |
| − | * the easter holidays are arriving. Slopjong will do a workshop 22-25 april
| + | |
| − | * please come forward and do talks!
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Web_%26_Server_Management
| + | |
| − | * there is a new, better, WiFi access point set up.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Camp-Orga
| + | |
| − | * the dudelange camp site has been reserved for haxolight
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Budget,_Legal_Matters_and_Landlord_Relations
| + | |
| − | * the Office did their first public meeting. The minutes are online [[OfficeMeetings#Meeting_26_march_2011]]
| + | |
| − | * the aim of those meetings is to make the office more open and transparent
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | //////// mondays are busy days, that's the day to come to the space and meet cool people \\\\\\\\\
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | == March 12th ==
| + | |
| − | '''Attention:''' This bootstrap meeting is on '''the second Saturday of the month''' for a change because we hold our [[AGMar2011|General Assembly]] on the 1st.
| + | |
| − | === Topics ===
| + | |

| + | |
| − | * Science Festival 2011
| + | |
| − | * [[CleanSpace Days]]

| − | Meeting start at 19:15
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * Working Group progress reports and group switching (if any)
| + | |
| − | ** Pubrel
| + | |
| − | ***several members work on a grafical charta so we can have a corporate identity. There will be no requirements to members to use a specific email signature
| + | |
| − | *** facebook group or page? Decision taken to keep both, but itnation and zap will be dropped.
| + | |
| − | *** who reads space status (open close) via twitter. Seems everyone just consults the main website. So either remove those updates altogether or create a dedicated twitter account so that the syn<sub>2</sub>cat twitte page gets less cluttered and more interesting to follow. Additional idea is to improve the status page to show a short history of the last changes and maybe finally create occupational statistics.
| + | |
| − | *** the new free twitter like service itenti,ca will not be used as the users are mainly geeks and ners who know anyway about hackerspaces
| + | |
| − | *** idea to create a yearly PDF based newsletter
| + | |
| − | *** spreadshirt: trial of the premium membership (60€). Should we only show the recent designs? Decision to have old designs in the shop but only on later pages. Personal designs should go on your own spreadshirt shop.
| + | |
| − | *** there will be generic business cars without individual names created. People can get personalized ones if they pay for them. Other possibility is to have A4 sheets with the cards pre-printed which can be personalized by anyone, either by printing or simply handwriting the name or alias.
| + | |
| − | *** Keep the [http://grl.lu GRL] brand? Yes. It's a label for street art. Put link to linux software on the site.
| + | |
| − | *** Blog: it's possible to write your own posts. But please finish your posts ASAP. There are many unfinished ones on the site.
| + | |
| − | ** Evdev
| + | |
| − | *** no meeting yet
| + | |
| − | *** please remember the [https://www.hackerspace.lu/wiki/Ubuntu_11.04_Release_Party ubuntu release party]
| + | |
| − | *** what is the group about: not really to create events but more supporting you in creating your events
| + | |
| − | ** sysops
| + | |
| − | *** wordpress has been updated
| + | |
| − | *** openduino2 is a standalone project
| + | |
| − | ** camp orga
| + | |
| − | *** the contract with dudelange scouts has to be signed
| + | |
| − | ** office
| + | |
| − | *** a suggestion was made that the council should be more open towards members what's going on
| + | |
| − | *** internal office meeting is scheduled for this month
| + | |
| − | ** faccat
| + | |
| − | *** from now on please put small bags into the trashcans in the lab room, else they become very dirty
| + | |
| − | *** one cupboard will be fitted with wheels so the stock will be easier to access
| + | |
| − | *** mate order will be made next monday. Personal crates (25€+5€ deposit) can be made until sunday night
| + | |
| − | *** anyone having trays to make ice cubes, please bring them, so we have ice for Kenn's coctail workshop
| + | |
| − | ** infrastructure
| + | |
| − | *** some new books have arrived. This could be tweeted. Using the rss feed from librarything is the easiest way.
| + | |
| − | * Opinion gathering about merging faccat and spila
| + | |
| − | ** 2 of 3 members in faccat are favorable to the merging, in spila nobody did oppose the idea.
| + | |
| − | ** one advantage is that the 2 budgets of faccat and 1 from spila can be merges into 2 budgets. Less admin time, more hacker time.
| + | |
| − | ** it's possible to tranfer faccat tickets in redmine into spila
| + | |
| − | ** trial period until next bootstrap or the one after
| + | |
| − | * Introducing the FreeSpace project
| + | |
| − | ** something like [http://www.diebaeckerei.at/ Die Bäckerei] in austria
| + | |
| − | ** 500m2
| + | |
| − | ** not commercial, so nothing like carree rotondes. It will be an autonomous structure
| + | |
| − | ** shall syn<sub>2</sub>cat be part of it? there are 3 possibilities
| + | |
| − | *** not participate
| + | |
| − | *** use some working rooms for our use
| + | |
| − | *** move completely there into our own dedicated rooms
| + | |
| − | ** is syn<sub>2</sub>cat behind this, supporting the idea? Yes
| + | |
| − | ** everyone should have a look at Die Bäckerei to have an idea what it's about
| + | |
| − | * Hack in the Box Amsterdam Attendance
| + | |
| − | ** this is a business conference with a high entry fee which is held from 17 until 20 May
| + | |
| − | ** participating in the hacker challenge can get 2 syn<sub>2</sub>cat members free access
| + | |
| − | ** who of our members is interested? Ask on mailinglist for people
| + | |
| − | * Upcoming workshops ([[The_famous_Etching_and_Soldering_Workshop|Soldering]] and [[Cocktail workshop|Cocktail]])
| + | |
| − | ** slopjong: dunno if you mean my soldering workshop. If so the voice changer is soldered which sounds like [http://www.youtube.com/user/slopjong#p/a/u/1/AqWq-M-Z1nM this]. The robot voice is understable if a microphone is used as the input instead of the line-out of my macb00k
| + | |
| − | ** please sign up for the workshops!!!
| + | |
| − | ** ice cube trays needed several days before next saturday!
| + | |
| − | ** Kenn needs some helping hands to move the coctail stuff to the space
| + | |
| − | * [http://www.science-festival.lu/ Science Festival 2011]
| + | |
| − | ** the project got approved including budget for parts and remuneration for people running the workshops
| + | |
| − | ** purpose: do science workshops to teach kids. On 2 days the classes with teacher will visit the workshop to experiment with logic gates using legos
| + | |
| − | ** a big calculator using the same logic gate principles will be built by syn<sub>2</sub>cat to be put up at the festival
| + | |
| − | ** there will be around 6 people needed to build the [http://www.hackerspace.lu/blog/main/2011/02/14/after-the-black-adder-the-half-adder/ half adders] via a small mass production chain

| − | Meeting finished at 20:45
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * Green Rack (after meeting presentation)
| + | |
| − | ** Gunstick presents his idea of bio-mod the syn<sub>2</sub>cat way.
| + | |
| − | ** The main purpose is to have a daylight visible sign to make people aware where the hackerspace is
| + | |
| − | ** Instead of enclosing running comupters and plants in an autonomous system, this idea will be more into the theme of nature taking over technology
| + | |
| − | ** the unused rack in the lab room will be used, including computer hardware. The servers will be plant pots where flowers and other green stuff grows.
| + | |
| − | ** must take contact with donators of the various hardware in that rack if they are OK to trash that (and transform into plant pots)
| + | |
| − | ** anyone interested in doing this?

| | + | * Well there is a list for security already. |
| | + | * The issue with that many lists is that you can have as many as you like but if people have no discipline, they will be of no use. |

| − | ==== Miscellaneous ====
| + | * October's bootstrap tasks and todos follow-ups |
| − | * Book aquisitions: How to do it? Does this need OK via bootstrap? | + | ** Have the circles been attached to the wall? |
| − | => Best is to add to the [[Book_Wish-list|wishlist]] including an abstract. Inform [[Space_Infrastructure,_Library_%26_Acquisitions|Library & Acquisitions]] of your request.
| + | Not yet, but kork circls have been cut and wood is available. Task to NPU |
| − | * Haxolight, if people know of some potential places, what are the requirements? [did we have an answer on this?] | + | |
| − | * Member fees timing and insurance: if members quit, and don't pay the whole year, the budget previsions would be off. Last meeting stated: members pay for a full year, even if this is done via monthly payments.
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | ==== Working Groups ====
| + | ** Sat-dish? |
| − | * status updates | + | Main problem is not really the authorization from commune to put the dish on the roof but rather laying the cable from inside to the dish. There is no praticable hole to pass the cables so we need to ask to get a pipe put through the wall. Task taken by NPU |
| − | ** [[Future_Events_%26_Developments|evdev]] have had an internal meeting which covered potential events and ideas for 2011. Also an after event questionnaire is planned to get people's opinions. Their next meeting is 22 jan. | + | |
| − | ** [[Facilities_%26_Catering|faccat]] presented the new tic board operation. Only people regularly visiting the space should put their marks on the blackboard. This is meant to ease the handling of multiple payments in one day or weekend, not to live on long term credit on syn2cat's costs. The maximum stays at 20€.
| + | |
| − | Buying kitchen and catering stuff is only handled by faccat. If members notice an opportunity, please contact a faccat member first, to avoid double buying. Small quantities you can still buy, at the risk to have to use it for your own needs if the syn<sub>2</sub>cat stock is full. In any case, never take money directly from the cashier! Please give the bill to a faccat member who will pay you.
| + | |
| − | The wishlist on the fridge is not only for needed beverages and food, but also for any kitchen or equipment item you think is missing.
| + | |
| − | ** [[Space_Infrastructure,_Library_%26_Acquisitions|spila]] if members have interesting items, don't bring them right away to the space. There is not so much room and a lot of stuff ended up at the recycling centre. Please ask spila first if there's need.
| + | |
| − | ** [[Press_%26_Public_Relations|pubrel]] has been asked to rearrange the top banner on the blog to point to the wiki pages and put the blog links to bottom or side. There will be new stickers. Pubrel also has a new member, which is also a new syn<sub>2</sub>cat member. If anyone is knowledgeable in XML and iTunes, there is a script needed to transform our radioshow into a podcast for the i-devices.
| + | |
| − | ** [[Web_%26_Server_Management|sysops]] have been asked to access the webserver statistics for optimizing the blog contents. There should be no problem to access the awstats. The questions of using google analytics was raised. Some concerns about privacy of website visitors have been raised, and the Idea is not accepted. If there is any need (new python version, new tools...) please file a ticket in [https://source.hacker.lu/projects/syn2catitadmins redmine]. There are plans to provide email facilities (including spam and virus checking) on the hackerspace.lu and syn2cat.lu domains.
| + | |
| − | ** [[Budget,_Legal_Matters_and_Landlord_Relations|hsoffice]] ADHS has been contacted today (as they were present this day) aboput the cleaning issue. They will have a general assembly next week and will tell us if our proposal is ok or they may be could offer us another solution.
| + | |
| − | A meeting is planned with the commune to discuss on several outstanding points (convention, letterbox, sattelite etc...)
| + | |
| − | Members contributions will need to be raised due the the assurance cost. This will be voted on the next general assembly. Members are advised to pay the new amount (which is €9.5 or €10) already from 1st of January on.
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | * sugar is a CRM (customer relationship management) tool which is in use by the office group since the very beginning of syn2cat. So it's not "another new tool". Roughly it's an evolves contact managing phonebook where you can also add exchanged emails and notes. The accounts (companies) have contacts (individuals). The use is to track communication with non-syn2cat people and groups. The advanteg compared to a spreadsheet or similar is that it's structured and won't end up with unorganized information clutter. Sugar is not available to everybody because of privacy issues. Please contact [https://source.hacker.lu/projects/syn2catitadmins sysops] for access. | + | ** Faster Internet? |
| − | This tool is not mandatory, you can still use a sheet of paper, wiki page or any other format for managing your contacts. If you find good alternatives, suggestions are welcome.
| + | The letter has been written but not sent out. Task taken by sim0n |
| − | A rudimetary bridge between sugar and redmine exist. To be studied if it's worth implementing.
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | * How to improve the working groups? | + | * report on student fair (if someone is willing to do it) |
| − | If you want to inform yourself about what is going on in a workgroup, a good idea is to browse through their redmine pages and tickets. Note that sysops and hsoffice are not browseable.
| + | Reporter David: The fair had a better success than last time. There was more interest by the visitors despite we not having the popular quadrocopter on display. On the other hand there was a contest to solve some mystery technological questions to win a Club Mate. Also the throwies were a good attract factor. Our thankyou cookies were appreciated by SNJ & BeeSecure. |
| − | The bridge between faccat and spila is not very clear. Maybe people should join both, or even merge both working groups. => a meeting spila-faccat should be planned to clarify this. | + | |
| − | * How to handle people leaving/joining working groups?
| + | |
| − | The consensus is, that no restrictions or barriers should be imposed on joining a workgroup. But leaving will only be possible at a bootstrap meeting. This is mainly to remove workload from the people needing to work behind the scenes to make all this happening (sysops).
| + | |
| − | Joining is generally not validated by anyone, except for hsoffice and sysops. TO have a trial period before deciding to join, members are free to assist a group meeting or talk with the group members before really joining.
| + | |
| − | Are there member and group number enforcements. There is a rule of at least 1 group and max 3 groups per member and max 6 members per group. This is just a rule of thumb. Depending on workload and people's interest, the real numbers vary.
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | ==== Administrativa ====
| + | Improvements for next time: prepare better what items to take and what to do on the booth. There was too much improvisation. |
| | | | |
| − | * Proposal for using real names and no nicknames on source.hacker.lu | + | ** We have event boxes with basic material to make a booth run. |
| − | As this has been covered on last meeting, not much has changed. Everyone is free to choose the name he wants. If people know each other, this should not be a problem. If there is urgent need to know the identity, you can ask office.
| + | ** We need a comity with people dedicated to certain tasks including replacement if someone becomes unavailable. |
| − | * Question about the way members get remembered of their membership fees | + | ** a schedule when which activity will run on the booth is useful |
| − | ** When do you get the initial fee? When do you get reminded? | + | ** equipping the booth with a printer |
| − | The reminder sent out was a manual action.
| + | ** putting soldering kits and other items in the event boxes could lead to our booth being always the same. Just put a reminder sheet to take kits, makerbot or others but not always take the same stuff. |
| − | ** Is email the best solution? | + | ** our booth needs a "leitmotiv" |
| − | It will always be email as any other solution (paper, sms ...) involves cost. Some ideas for nagging people not paying came up, and vanished again.
| + | |
| − | * Handling the storage vault. (Wuala/Dropbox/webdav or /dev/null?)
| + | |
| − | The storage contains a multitude of logos and documents which have been used in the past of syn2cat. This should be migrated from svn (the only remaining svn depot we have) into git, so one can access it from redmine.
| + | |
| − | * A database where all the members' interests are listed
| + | |
| − | There was the project to do interviews with the members, which has not made much progress. Members could fill out on their wiki profile their interests. The proposal to use the semantic capabilities of mediawiki is accepted, so that this info becomes searchable.
| + | |
| − | * Optional feature request: limit #users on Lusitania to historical 1198 [https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/RMS_Lusitania] nice joke, but the ship had 2198 passengers, oh, oh, fail.
| + | |
| − | * Concerning "children work" (≠ Asian children work) a box on the front page where parents could "register" their children for workshops would be cool. This box should populate a mailing list which we can then use to inform parents when a workshop is held. | + | |
| | | | |
| − | ==== Events ====
| + | * Cdays 2012 |
| − | * Realizing regular workshop for kids & some kind of shop (everything realized with stuff, they've got on sparkfun.com, evilmadscientist.com, etc.)
| + | Will be from 26-27 march. Putting the marble adder there has been considered overkill. Maybe better organize a trip for interested people from cdays to the space to show off the machine. |
| − | On the christmas market, we noticed a big interest in electronic blinking and gaming gadgets. So the idea came to organize workshops. Start small with a couple of children. Then increase the number. The scouts were interested to cooperate.
| + | |
| − | * Science Festival. [http://www.science-festival.lu/appel-a-propositions/ CallforProposals] [http://ps.mnhn.lu/ScienceFestival/festival2009/Pictures/Science%20Festival/index.html Photos 2009]
| + | |
| − | The deadline is on 16 january! Before proposing, verify that you are available during the festival. Some ideas already came up:
| + | |
| − | ** computer science, unplugged. Have people interact physically to reproduce computer activity (binary counter, networking, calculating ...)
| + | |
| − | ** build micro robos with sensors so they can interact with environment and themselves
| + | |
| − | ** create a device with non newtonian fluid where people can play with
| + | |
| − | ** [your idea here]
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | ==== Acquisitions ====
| |
| − | * Buy gas-heater?
| |
| − | For the cold events like christmas market or lasertagging. Postponed to next bootstrap. If you see gas heaters in local shops, note down the price.
| |
| − | * Buy fold-able transport boxes?
| |
| − | Consensus is to invest in some solid stuff. Jhemp may have a ressource to get industrial grade boxes. Else the maximum budget allowed is 150€
| |
| | | | |
| − | ==== Projects & Funding ====
| + | |
| − | * Fund an OpenLase Installation (~500€) @SteveClement
| + | |
| − | Nice idea. This was not discussed in detail. Some ideas were raised to use alternatives to galvanometers (harddisks, laserdisk pickup, loudspeakers)
| + | |
| − | * Idea: "Present your project"-Sessions
| + | |
| − | Everyone was favorable to hold a sort of lightening talks before the bootstrap meeting. This can be about potential or running projects.
| + | |
| − | * video stream of bootstrap meeting? The idea of the meeting is to be actually together. Else everyone would stay at home. Not approved.
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | ==== New members ====
| + | * report on science festival [[User:Gunstick|Gunstick]] 17:37, 19 January 2012 (CET). |
| − | * who is new in the space? | + | Please see the [http://www.hackerspace.lu/2012/01/21/marble-adder/ blog post] |
| − | Several people have joined, mainly in the media and multimedia area. Welcome!
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | == December 4th, 2010 ==
| + | There was the idea to present the marble adder to the press after the lift has been created. Anyone wanting to help with that, please contact Gunstick. |

| | | | |
| − | ==== privacy of source.hacker.lu ====
| + | Macfreak wants to create a movie about the marble adder: idea, construction, principal function, interviews. It would be nice if people who contributed would appear in the movie. The movie will be part of a series of podcasts. Extracs from those podcasts will then be turned into a promotional video for syn2cat. |
| − | It was voted for leaving source.hacker.lu openly and fully indexable by crawlers. | + | |
| | | | |
| − | ==== bar tap board overuse & consequences for not respecting cleanliness of space ====
| + | * report on the Christmas Market [[User:Gunstick|Gunstick]] 17:37, 19 January 2012 (CET). |
| − | In both cases, it was convened on a case-by-case trial. The person concerned should be invited in front of the administrative council, accompanied by the person who vouched for him/her on the membership application form. Matters should be discussed face-to-face and solutions primarily be proposed by the person standing "trial".
| + | Despite one day canceled because of weather the market was a big success. Everything was sold. |
| | + | The preparation activity to do the cookie baking was a great socializing event. |
| | | | |
| − | ==== working groups status update ====
| |
| − | * '''Faccat''' promised to make a serious proposal for the cleaning issue until January 8th. In the meantime, the insurance contract should be concluded.

| − | ==== graffitiresearchlab.lu ====
| + | * Podcasting: Wiki, wordpress, ara? --[[User:Kwisatz|Kwisatz]] 13:49, 23 October 2011 (CEST) |
| − | Solved by Steve buying the domain.
| + | Ara has a new contract which would make it not legal to have podcasts on our site if they contain copyrighted content. There are several possibilities: |
| | + | ** cut out the content |
| | + | ** only play creative commons music |
| | + | ** play less music |

| − | ====detailed presentation of working groups (cf. wiki descriptions)====
| + | Not everyone should say somthing but PR group should handel communication. We also don't need to be on all media reports. |
| − | * requirement of being able to post issues to the working groups discussed
| + | C3l should handle all requests about security aspects. |
| − | ** -> set up in redmine
| + | syn2cat has no opinion and can only give technical explanations. |
| − | * PR group should seek permission and confirmation of correctness before publishing materials (when publishing stuff about projects, for instance)

| + | |
| − | Number 11 on facade: how to fix? => Use the round windows for displaying 11.<br/>
| + | |
| − | The top border of the building is probably metal. Magnetically fix a sign there. Design will be handled in the Syn2Sign project.<br/>
| + | |
| − | Idea to put little life-gliders everywhere. not really.<br/>
| + | |
| − | Maps in the bus-stops could be updated with the hackerspace location => '''ask commune/AVL/JCD.'''<br/>
| + | |
| − | Recreate sign every year cheaply instead of an expensive one. Banners (callico).<br/>
| + | |
| − | Illuminated sign has to be done. Buying will be too expensive.<br/>
| + | |
| − | Has the ADHS sign been created by commune? Ask ''Grun signalisation'' for their prices.<br/>
| + | |
| − | Syn2Sign project split in several sections for every sign (street, building...)<br/>

| − | Use the blends to spell syn<sub>2</sub>cat by using reflective tape?!<br/>

| − | | + | |

| + | |
| − | :seems to be ok
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * wall paint? which color? where?
| + | |

| − | ==== Selling drinks ====
| + | |
| − | There is no club where the buvette is done by another organization than the one doing the infrastructure. This looks like problems.<br/>
| + | |
| − | The council will have another round of debates on this.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==== Layouts for the member cards ====
| + | |
| − | will have a mag stripe for experimentation<br/>
| + | |
| − | the nickname (login in the wiki) will be on it as a barcode and of course the new logo, maybe the PGP fingerprint (40 chars).

| − | | + | |
| − | ==== Treasury ====
| + | |
| − | We don't have any treasurer. steve is overbooked.
| + | |
| − | We need one. Georges Toth proposes himself.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==== Old Rack ====
| + | |
| − | The new rack will get the equipment from the little mobile rack. So the old one goes where. Just on the trash? <br/>
| + | |
| − | And the new? In the hall (need rack keys) after asking the commune.
| + | |
| − | | + | |

| − | ====RepRap or Makerbot?====
| + | |
| − | Reprap is complicated to build as it needs quite some special tools we don't have (yet). Makerbot is more expensive but can be assembled more easily. And once we have a makerbot we can still use that to create a Reprap out of thin air (well, or... almost).
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | ====[[ChemLab|Chemical lab]]====
| + | (CET) |
| − | Need a table which is not sensitive to chemicals. Some glass panes to contain eventual fumes (from etching, soldering and anything else making smelly smoke) and an extractor to remove the fumes.
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | ====Membership cards==== | + | == Archives == |
| − | What layout? The new logo of course, with the name, a barcode which may be used for the library and a magstripe for people to play with. The layout should have syn<sub>2</sub>cat and user's name on both sides so the card can be used as badge on lanyard.

Issue is still cables that need to go in and out of the building, nobody present was really in the know about that issue.
Also, we don't know who should have asked the commune to drill the hole.
Circles are done, pins are there, all that needs to be done is to paint the wall.
Lala will see if they still have some white paint left.
We also need to apply some paste first for the screws and joints.
The same restrictions as for the circles apply, ie. the wall should be painted first.
Not yet, but kork circls have been cut and wood is available. Task to NPU
Main problem is not really the authorization from commune to put the dish on the roof but rather laying the cable from inside to the dish. There is no praticable hole to pass the cables so we need to ask to get a pipe put through the wall. Task taken by NPU
The letter has been written but not sent out. Task taken by sim0n
Reporter David: The fair had a better success than last time. There was more interest by the visitors despite we not having the popular quadrocopter on display. On the other hand there was a contest to solve some mystery technological questions to win a Club Mate. Also the throwies were a good attract factor. Our thankyou cookies were appreciated by SNJ & BeeSecure.
Improvements for next time: prepare better what items to take and what to do on the booth. There was too much improvisation.
Will be from 26-27 march. Putting the marble adder there has been considered overkill. Maybe better organize a trip for interested people from cdays to the space to show off the machine.
There was the idea to present the marble adder to the press after the lift has been created. Anyone wanting to help with that, please contact Gunstick.
Macfreak wants to create a movie about the marble adder: idea, construction, principal function, interviews. It would be nice if people who contributed would appear in the movie. The movie will be part of a series of podcasts. Extracs from those podcasts will then be turned into a promotional video for syn2cat.
Despite one day canceled because of weather the market was a big success. Everything was sold.
The preparation activity to do the cookie baking was a great socializing event.
We want to have a wildcard cert sponsored. Task taken by trollchen to complete on 4th february.
Ara has a new contract which would make it not legal to have podcasts on our site if they contain copyrighted content. There are several possibilities:
As this is at the same time than CDays, only end of the week 28-30 will be covered. Macfreak proposed several workshops: throwies, scratch, mindstorms, bristlebots...
Not everyone should say somthing but PR group should handel communication. We also don't need to be on all media reports.
C3l should handle all requests about security aspects.
syn2cat has no opinion and can only give technical explanations.
We will create a press response email list with people who would reply to the news about themes they are skilled in.
The syn2cat spokesperson should be from the PR circle.
If the press visits the space unannounced, please forward them to the PR team.
if we get offered stuff please ask someone from facilities circle if we have the need for this and also room to put it. Do not simply bring stuff!
Idea to put a huge calender on our new wall where we can put up the dates of planned events in which we could participate, even before those are scheduled in the wiki.
we were asked to design and build a trophy out of metal and PCB boards. This should be finished for october 2012.
