Everyone Introduced themselves
Discussed goals of group as educational space, skill share
Seth: We should have two types of meetings: Group Projects and Open Work Nights. These two will cover the gamut if some are not interested in group project.
developmental meetings could be incorporated into project meetings: a short discussion before we start building
Being a nomadic group for a while will help us learn what we need from a space
Seth: we need a statement of purpose
We also need a name
MJ: Introduced Innovation Depot, the opportunity for working with them / being affiliated
Groups we should get in touch with about workshops / members :
Artplay
Bici Bike Coop
We need another form of communication besides Google Groups.
Houston suggested Subreddit
Katie Suggested Proboards
Other social networking sites could be useful like Flickr and Facebook (especially for events)
Decided on Houston's Robot welding station for the first group project meet up, Tuesday, April 17th 6 pm at his house
David will set up an event on meetup.com
