Appoint Nick Stokoe and Nick Sellen as Tech Co-Leads for a Six Month Term Closed Sat 30 Nov 2019 4:03PM
This proposal has passed a vote of the Tech Working Group, and so is moving to the full co-op membership for ratification, as it involves expenditure of funds. Social.coop's current financial resources, both in terms of cash on hand and current expected annual income can be viewed on Open Collective here.
Project Budget: $1,500 over a 6 month period following the passage of this proposal.
Proposal: Appoint Nick Stokoe and Nick Sellen as "Co-Tech Leads" for a six month period. They will be responsible for doing upgrades on at least a monthly basis as needed, fleshing out documentation, and engaging interested tech working group volunteers to increase the number of folks with working knowledge of the technical systems that underlay social.coop. For this work, they will each receive a monthly payment of $125. In the final month of their 6 month mandate, they will convene a call of the Tech Working Group to review how the arrangement has worked and to develop a proposal for a structure for the next six month period.

Excited to have some folks directly responsible for regular upgrades! Seems like a great use of our funds.
