3. Shopping plans

• [janina] 1-2 nail clippers
  • matthias threw away the last one from the bathroom because it was unbearably shitty
  • big ones are usually more stable than small ones
• [Kate] would like to spend circa 12 euro on a clothes rail for the free shop. desperately need more hanging space for kids clothes (and then it can go to flohmarkts or outside in summer too)
  • used or new?
  • might not last long
  • but no resistance to trying it
• [kito] 15-20€ for a big pinboard
  • janina and kito look at existing boards first

4. To do

• idea: move to an analog list in the elephant room, could be brought to every CoMe [kito]

  • who is maintaining it? [janina]
    • me and the CoMe?! [kito]

• [ ] proof-reading heating page in handbook https://handbook.kanthaus.online/technical/heating.html [kate]

• [ ] fix/improve K20-1 staircase night light (can ask Tilmann for details about wiring)

• [ ] put kanthaus logo on the new beer benches and tables

• [ ] curtains for the dragon room that prevent passersby from staring inside

• [ ] cut branch from tree in the compost corner (after leaves fall)

• [ ] cover the pipes from the rest of the room in the snack kitchen (wooden board angle?) []

  • [tilmann] maybe directly go for drywall as final measure?
    • [maxime] that would be the right but more difficult remediation indeed. I looked at options to hack a wooden corner, but didn't find satisfying options in the wood shed, so I'll leave there.

• [ ] fill holes in Snack kitchen floor where moths breed

  • it started but it's not done yet, unclear what is the right material
    • [doug] recommend a bit of building foam for a base, then concrete

• [ ] fix Daria trailer back lights [Dorota]

  • [Martin] Cables got pinched, I suggest redoing the whole thing. Also, use a diode to prevent over voltage.

• [ ] replace shower curtain by (plexi)glass construction

5. Discussion & Announcements

Round 1

• [doug] will remove virtual printers after Friday
  • cool
• [Martin] Compost motion: stop it for now, throw everything in biotonne, deal with what we've got.
  • Context: https://yunity.slack.com/archives/C3RS56Z38/p1699032428920029
  • sure, let's do it!
  • the round hopes that kate and martin are communicating about this...^^'
• [kito] Group requests
  • Bausyndikat and other group in the end of November
    • Kito continues communications for now, Doug and Janina support with hosting when the time comes
  • 23 people would like to do a "future weekend" on the topic of communal living, either 19th -21st or 26th - 28th of January
  • group of 10 people, would like to live and learn together for 3 monthes, starting in December
  • [Larissa] definitly in favour of a month of calm before the ffj starts (in case that desicion is made in this meeting because of the group requests)
  • [kate] most concerned about this group of 10 for 3 months request! Feel like it's a no at 1st glance, but can't be in this meeting to hear other points of view - willing to hear about possible advantages. not bothered about the big weekend group - easy to leave the house for a weekend. not easy to leave for 3 months. month of calm - i feel it's easy to have a month of calm between end of toi 2 and toi 3 if people really need it. Selfishly I have really relied on visitors willing to do freeshop for help. So probably have a different perspective to others who don't need help ;-)
  • moi seems to be desired, but could work from mid-december to mid-january. the exact design of moi frame can still be discussed (what about e.g. new year's guests?)
  • general interest to host the future weekend group, kito will talk to larissa about it and accept them if there's no resistance
• [janina] bike hitch storing spot poll
  • let's keep the round bits on the trailers and not on the bikes from now on!
• [riell] being here
  • great!
  • let's do a check-in soon (and generally announce check-ins on slack)
• [dorota] my server: it's intended to stay. how to formalize this?
  • a better location is needed, electricity costs could be contributed to but it's not obligatory
  • dorota will come up with a proposal and put it on slack
  • a small presentation of what's actually on there would be interesting :)

Round 2

• [kito] TOI tomorrow, don't forget to think about the questions
  • volunteers and members only
  • we need people to prepare breakfast and for preparing tea and coffee (and snacks?) for the session
• [Martin] potatoes need sorting out of moldy ones
  • will be put into power hour
• [Antonin] rust meetup tomorrow (Tuesday) evening? Dima would be up for it :) Dorota are you in?
  • [dorota] yes of course
  • [Antonin] amazing! let's say 20:00?

Round 3

• [kito] CryptoKüfa on the 27th?
  • Monday in 3 weeks. Kito would need people with some knowledge to support, he himself feels mostly responsible for advertisement and food.
• [Antonin] about Klara coming on Sunday, it would be just for a few days before her longer stay, I would be hosting
  • aaah. we were wondering already... ;)
