[Spacecadets] Spacecadets "mission"

[dknutson]

I called for a meeting because I don’t think this can be handled efficiently or effectively by any other means than a group discussion.  I agree with Charel that who ever has volunteered to be on the committee at this point will have enough different views to make a start on coming up with some sort of coherent “plan”.  The annex has rapidly spiraled down into a mess.  If we as a group don’t start applying some sort of overall control it will quickly become unmanageable, if it isn’t already.

I don’t really care who is in charge because it needs to be done.  I’ll take the heat for getting the ball rolling but I hope everyone can make it Sunday at 6 PM in the annex.  Bring your ideas on paper if possible.  All the square footage, rent and other figures would be most useful but the important thing is your presence and thoughts.

To you last question of adding people to this meeting on Sunday. The 'community' side of me says yes but the 'we need to get this focused and done' side of me says no - we already have a wide range of voices. We have the space and we have decisions to be made so I think at least this meeting of SpaceCadets should be as the group currently stands.

    Well whom do you think should plan the layout,  figure out the materials, and or quotes for any rework?  and to get us to the point where it is a useful and valulable part of quelab? (instead of just a expensive storage unit)  

  Adric - I don't know who should plan the layout, etc., but the Board has strictly adhered to protocol in every case I have seen; it needs to follow that precedent in this case, too.  As Lissa said: "it makes sense that this committee do that sort of thing. If a directive is needed, that item would need to be placed on a board agenda and consensed on by the board members."


  It *DOES* make sense for the SpaceCadets group to create the things all of you are suggesting they create, but - in this case - all that falls outside the purview of the stated reasons why the Board convened the group.


  I am one of the members that volunteered to be part of SpaceCadets, so I share the blame as much as any of the people that volunteered.  As a group we've never met, we never declared a convener or head or whatever you want to call the main point-of-contact.  However, I DO think we have fulfilled the directive we were given: decide on renting the annex or not, versus other spaces in town.


  Darrel has asked for a meeting of the SpaceCadets this Sunday night to discuss plans for Annex, so it will proceed & hopefully get some recommendations (As Lissa also said, "My guess is the committee will get to it anyway without a directive being needed.").


  For the SpaceCadets reading along: do we want to publicize the Sunday meeting  to the Members' list, and welcome anyone to come to it?
