[edit] Reclaim your DNA and Modern Liberty

ACTION: Tim, Rowan and David offer to help

[edit] ORG on social networks

Useful discussion, out of which some actions arose

  • Need to make the 'donate now' links more obvious, although frankly don't expect much to come from this source, which is more about raising awareness of issues.
  • Develop an app based on Sam'd dataloss tool
  • Bebo: produce summaries of the issues most relevant to this audience

[edit] Xmas party

There will be no karaoke. There will be Copyfighters and a raffle. There could be some kind of games rig.

[edit] Supporter update

Useful discussion, broadly confirming it does its job. Should add would a 'meet the volunteers' section, which briefly introduces an individual and their project.

[edit] Volunteer strategy

ACTION: Michael to make better use of trac to log and monitor suggested and ongoing projects. Also, experiment more with appointing project coordinators.

[edit] Next meeting

Not discussed but Michael suggests 15 or 22 January
