Town-hall meeting April 01
We've skipped a couple town halls, lack of interest? lack of attendance?
Rachel wants some ideas how to keep the community showing up to meetings?
Luke "meetings or wetfish?" Rachel "meetings." Luke: "how about a
reminder-bot? just once per person on that day. PM system would be
better." rothen: "and they sign-up for it?" Luke: "nah, nobody would
sign up." rothen: "I hate it, but I can see why."
The new rules about no constant pity-me moaning and no schizoposting
has some members return and start being active again. even woodcat!
"Using /IGNORE is like putting on a gas-mask: you're comfortable, but
the fire and smoke is still going on, and you won't make any effort to
put out the fire."
If someone's harassing you, drop a note in #reef.
Anomaly made wetfish forums items! and rachel is gonna pay her via Gusto.
FISHMEET 2024 NEXT WEEK (technically this week, Friday) Lake
Tecsomah, (Texas? Oaklahoma? both?) on a salt-water beach. Ocean!
For <s>Fishmas</s> Fishmeet! Luke is picking rothen up at the Ft. Worth
airport
rothen: "y'all gonna be good and hung over for my wedding?" We'll see!
Luke volunteered to be the sober one who'll talk to cops.
Operations: budget's been tight, running out of runway. But!
rachel's been hustling, two new clients that are THIS >< close to
signing on the dotted line. One's a mobile app for college students,
the other is more space/satellite hoo-hah. Four-hundred point increase!
This will beat paying the bounties out of rachel's own purse.
Nature Conservation: cut down an apple tree and hauled the wood.
1,100 BAGS OF LEAVES!!one! Went to a local beaver conference, ecologists
and hydrologists and biologists oh my. Met someone who may send students
to the mountain to do studies. There was a new state law that legalizes
beavering (beaver-dam analogues), considered now to be "Minor stream
restoration" and now she doesn't have to worry about being ratted out
to the cop. rachel is beaverpunk.
More pages for the wetfish website are ready to go. More details for
the bounties page -- meleeman has been chppping away at them, yam is
eyeing them too. mozai: "the pastebin replacement made by emergence?"
rachel: oops, hasn't been deployed yet. Fishy (ircbot) moved to the new
server, more uptime with better nodejs. meleeman ugpraded the wiki from
PHP 5 all the way to v8 holy hannah we're now in 2024. And RuffleJS to
resurrect our flash videos & gaems!
RACHEL TIPPED 1337 CORAL FOR THIS POST
