3. Tomorrow's community meeting

Lots of discussion, working on the 11/2 community budget meeting prep and
also getting Elph and Jillian more up to speed on the October community
meeting.

4.
Had time for a brief discussion about stand asides in the community. Let's
look back at what we wrote before, but how can we do some active learning
about it, not just sharing the document we have - some kind of active
exercise.

MONKEY: Once the agenda time squeeze is past, Infoco should craft an agenda
item where the group talks about stand asides.

Also good to talk more with the community and committees about why we do a
2-meeting process. Have a sense from GO now that we've had too many of them
in 2011. Aaron and Alicia counted lately and came up with at least 6 of
them in 2011, although some of those were small things, not important
items.

Should Process push back harder when committees ask for 1-meeting decisions
on agendas? I think so. Mostly we've been letting them happen. Sometimes
its ok, for small items, but its rarely ok for big items - a lot of
bruising seems to happen.

5. Skills and Thrills, Nov 12 and 13
Coming up very soon! Jillian and Becky will be distributing/putting up
posters with the full schedule and description tonite and tomorrow morning.

6. Next meeting
Infoco meets on first tuesdays, so our next meeting is Dec 6.


MONKEYS

Re-MONKEY: Jillian will add each faciliation recipe as we complete it, to
the Process section of the wiki for now.

Re-MONKEY: Jillian will update the infoco mandate draft, take out all the
extraneous formatting, make some changes and bring it back.

MONKEY: Once the agenda time squeeze is past, Infoco should craft an agenda
item where the group talks about stand asides.
