Issues

Tim Dobson said in IRC:

issues i would like to bring up which may or may not have already been covered but probably wouldn't hurt on being re gone over:

  • relationship with: FSF, FSFE, AFFS, FSUK, mattl
  • UK wide free Software Network
  • speaker for may
  • upcoming speakers
  • online presence (multiple mediums)
  • status of videoing//recording talks
  • relationship with OOSG and all the people i forgot about before who are semi-in the same field
  • structure (sward has some suggestions there i see)
  • location of meetings (i am not keen on lecture theatres)
  • rms in manchester
  • relationship with other techie communities in manchester (i have strong views on this)

A few more from me:

  • Alternative hosting
  • Representiation on NWDC
  • Clarification of aims—we need specifics to focus on, really.
  • Organisation (as tdobson says, yeah, there are some ideas):
    • At least chairperson (facilitator)
    • If we are going to officially set up as an organisation of some sort Companies House / Charity Commission impose some extra requirements on organisation.
