<br>--<br>Idea for the bookshop (Jo): we could also list in the Varia website the publications?<br>I thought of it after looking at <a href="http://www.readersandpublishers.org/join/" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://www.readersandpublishers.org/join/</a> &gt; and thinking of ways we could connect with other independent pub platforms and projects.<br>Not sure if we should run a bookshop (Manetta) ... happy to discuss this after the member meeting! <br>

<br>Notes:<br>
<br>We are currently going through the list on <a href="https://pad.vvvvvvaria.org/tasks.board" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://pad.vvvvvvaria.org/tasks.board</a><br>We leave notes on in-between discussions here below ...<br>
<br>Our new board is: Silvio [with Luke on hold until January] (mediator), Cristina (secretary), Manetta (treasurer, but also treasure), Niek (public programme), Danny (master of space), Lidia (moderator)<br>
<br>Side conversations &amp; more:<br>
<br>Question from Cristina: can people who are not in the board take part in discussions?<br>Possible change to member meeting format to allow for general interest discussions that are not necessarily practical and should not be siloed in board member meetings (e.g.: Varia's future). <br>- Possibility that came up: we schedule thema membermeetings, once every 3 months<br>- Possibility that came up: we schedule thema board meetings<br>
<br>Note in the tasks.board:<br>
<strong>
<em>[doesn't this create an imbalance of visibility? why not have the email account accessible to all members?]</em>
