Group membrane and gatekeeping agreements for new collective governance members
pospi Thu 28 Nov 2019 12:35AMPublicSeen by 64We need to formalise some decisions and processes as to how we bring new people in to the group in these early stages. It is assumed that eventually we want things to be completely open; but in this embryonic phase it may be better to lay a good foundation first.

Still agree

I agree for a grass roots approach, people need to see how decisions are made and if someone questions why the economic toolkit is taking a certain stance or direction we are able to send them the unlisted link.

I think this is fine so long as we each commit to providing adequate context about the group's status and maturity.
We should make the Gitbook and Loomio group shareable

Gitbook is now publicly shareable via a secret link: https://economikit.gitbook.io/group-governance/-LwVmwtwlxCxHXJ5Brd8/
Loomio group still private since there is no "secret link" version of visibility on Loomio. To be put to a vote in the new year (:
So that we can start to share these discussions with potentially interested parties.
Note that this would be like an "unlisted video" on YouTube in that the links to the Loomio group and Gitbook would not be publicly discoverable and can only be accessed by those we explicitly share them with (and who they share with, and so on).

Oh, I missed this somehow. I am a yes.
We should make the gitbook and Loomio group "unlisted" for readonly sharing with interested parties

Since I started this before everyone had accounts set up, makes sense to run it again
Ideally I would like to be able to send this work-in-progress documentation to potential collaborators who might have an interest in what we're doing. So I think it makes sense to have unlisted URLs which are readonly for those in the group in order to enable us to share.
There does however need to be a clear indication given when sharing with others that these discussions are a work in progress.
Not sure how others in the group might feel about this... let's find out!

For this particular issue I'm specifically talking about bringing people in to be part of the decision making process of the collective. Feel free to open threads on the other topics!

It could also include organisations who wish to align their protocol with the VF language (i.e. contributing to the commons)
Sid SthalekarThu 28 Nov 2019 12:42AM
Would we bring in new people to be part of the decision making process of the collective? Or to contribute person-hours towards a task, or both?
pospiThu 30 Jan 2020 9:20AM
hmm, maybe. Probably being overly cautious. I don't think we're the types to create any autocratic situations... but then again, I bet that's what a lot of autocrats said :P

@pospi Reg your post about not taking a decision on not inviting Carolyn: Do we need to have a quorum? Might be too early to set those minimum limits, and instead we just roll with what we have?

Also would be great to bring in Carolyn Beer 'cos she is doing similar work on HOLO's code of conduct

I don't see the usual Abstain or whatever. I don't object, but don't understand the proposal. Does
...mean readonly sharing is allowed as long as somebody gives the reader a link? Or it means readonly sharing is not allowed?
And what is the list where it would not be listed?
