Dear all,
i have updated the SC wiki page. It seems that there were a bunch of communication suggestions made at some point, i don't know if those were ever discussed. and i put the list that sara compiled into the suggested items section, i guess once we have a consensus on that, we can move the items we want to work on over to the current agenda items.
thus here is my proposal. but first of all, since i didn't hear a
resounding yes on the skype meet, i guess nothing is happening, for
the time being, right?
so, i put the different agenda items into categories:
1. would be good to talk about them soon
-producing quarterly report
- Starting Carfree Indy media
-Having special SC, ICC, AB meetings once or twice a year
2. all time issues
-SC member involvement with Network Projects
-WCN Fundraising
-Development of WCN Skill-Sharing on the internet (a, b,c)
-Strategic Plan
-Carbusters Magazine
-communication related suggestions (which was previously there)
3. needs a one time working through, perhaps less urgent
-SC member involvement with Network Projects
-Defining the role of the SC staff liaison
okay, you might have noticed that what i put into the category of more
urgent two my own suggestions. now i don't mean to hog the agenda, but
let me explain my thinking: 1) the carfree indymedia subject has had
some problems getting started, and perhaps a little bit of discussion
can get that going. it would then be nice if that could get started,
and be developing further in the background. 2) strategical meeting
with AB SC ICC, more important than the previous item, i would say,
and urgent, because if we could get that to happen around the time of
TCFC in istanbul, we should get organized with that now. 3) producing
quarterly report probably won't require too much time spent)
some of the "all time issues" would be most effectively discussed in a
situation like strat. meeting (as i envision it), but we could also
choose to discuss one or several of those as a current sc item, based
on what people feel is urgent.
but if someone wants to suggest a different organization of the
categories, or would like to bump something up to more urgent, that is
also fine. also, since susanna indicated that she is not really able
to the facilitating right now very well, i could offer to facilitate
for the moment, at least until we have a clear agenda, and now what we
are doing, and can figure out who will do faciliating in the
foreseeable future. but of course all this is open for discussion and
agreement, so feel free to send in other ideas or disagree.
