Columbia Exchange Circle (COMOExchange) Meeting Minutes

[Richard Schulte]

Hey everybody! We had an incredibly productive meeting today. We
will have orientation meetings in several weeks as the site goes
online, but for now we have a lot of work to do laying a foundation,
creating content and designing the functionality of the system, and
planning outreach and publicity efforts.

Here is vaugely what we spoke about, and if you would like more
detail, follow this link: http://openfarmtech.org/index.php?title=CECmtg-02-07-09

//1. Content creation\\

//2. Unit name\\ We have a running poll for the unit name (i.e. what
the LETS credits will be called, instead of just credits)!

http://doodle.com/participation.html?pollId=rnu37hu82hra55rp will take
you to a simple polling mechanism where you can vote on either
'marbles', 'seeds' or 'shares'. My idea for 'opposums' fell on flat
ears, I wonder why!

//3. Membership Rules\\

//4. Ratios\\

//5. Abuse Prevention\\

//6. Knowledge Exchange and Skillbase\\

Again, let us know if you are interested in creating content, doing
community outreach or publicity, and managing the site. We got a lot
of fun work to do and every bit of help will push us further towards
our goals. A key aspect is ensuring that not just the campus
community but the community as a whole is involved and active and
cooperatively leading this project, to ensure its life and livelihood
well into uncertain but bold futures. Godspeed.
