<strong>* Varia organisational updates</strong>
|
|
<br>- We're working on an application for the Professionaliserings subsidy of the Stimuleringsfonds <a href="https://stimuleringsfonds.nl/nl/actueel/nieuws/open_oproep_professionalisering_platforms_3/" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://stimuleringsfonds.nl/nl/actueel/nieuws/open_oproep_professionalisering_platforms_3/</a> (Max. €7500 for 4 months outlined professionalisation trajectory, deadline 15th of May).<br>
|
|
<ul class="indent">
|
|
<li>- Roel got a PhD position in Malmø, and will move to Sweden in August/September</li>
|
|
<li> - therefore, provoking the moment to rethink/open up what is Varia</li>
|
|
<li>- code of conduct for Varia</li>
|
|
<li>- "mission statement", statutes, bi-laws, etc. with member participation</li>
|
|
<li>- bi-laws/statuten as a tool to reconsider the member status</li>
|
|
<li>- Niek, Manetta and Roel are working on the proposal + a first draft of these documents, which will then be openend up for all members to discuss; in the yearly member meeting we can elect a new board (chairperson, secretary, treasurer "Mistress Of Coin", who are registered as that in the KVK)</li>
|
|
<li>- part of the grant is to have 2 external advisors (administration advice person (force finance)? someone who can advise on bi-laws? and code of conduct (realitygaps, ginger coons)?)</li>
|
|
<li>- 6th of June we know if we are awarded the grant. But also, we need/want to do these things ...</li>
|
|
</ul>- proposal for a new about text <a href="https://pad.vvvvvvaria.org/wg.website" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://pad.vvvvvvaria.org/wg.website</a> (can we take 15 minutes to go over the text and publish it? <br>
|
|
<ul class="indent">
|
|
<li>> suggestion to schedule a meeting for this, Cristina will send a mail)</li>
|
|
<li> > luke brain: chance for ep_comments to get feedback on new about !?<ul class="indent">

<strong>* Digital Autonomy continued</strong>
|
|
<br>- Elephant response letter<br> - how to pursue with the work engaged concretely? (a lot of people were interested in "varia's expertise" and would like to join efforts without being very tech savvy)<br> - has Constant replied to the email that was sent to them after the workshop? Not by email, but a big thanks was expressed f2f<br> - next meetings <br>
|
|
<ul class="indent">
|
|
<li>- for writing an invitation to other self organised spaces: May 3rd</li>
|
|
<li>- continue writing the response letter with invited self-organisers: Monday 27th of May + Tuesday 4th of June (both between 19:00 - 22:00) </li>
|
|
<li> we use this pad to organise this > <a href="https://pad.vvvvvvaria.org/elephant-response" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://pad.vvvvvvaria.org/elephant-response</a>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>> hard to meet before perhaps, but it would be good to re-strategise this letter writing initiative.</li>
|
|
<li>> maybe in-between we can chat on xmpp?</li>

<br> - Concerns:<br> - What is the scope of Librehosters?<br> - Varia hosts for members and not general public?<br> - How to join Librehosters, not as a hosting company? <br> - Besides getting a vote, opportunity to shape future developments, research and connect with themes of digital autonomy (elephant letter, etc) while being part of a wider support community (different skills)<br> - list of not specifically hosting members: <a href="https://www.autistici.org/" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.autistici.org/</a>, <a href="https://ps.lesoiseaux.io/" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://ps.lesoiseaux.io/</a>, <a href="https://hackerspaces.be/" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://hackerspaces.be/</a>, <a href="https://www.privacytools.io/" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.privacytools.io/</a>, <br> - Who are the other not hosting companies (interesting angles from different groups)<br> - Luke brain: make a thread on talk.libreho.st to ask the questions and stuff<br>

<strong>* Varia publications after Open Day + Tech Zine Fair, cash moment ;)</strong>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<strong>* Upgrade</strong>
|
|
<br>- New beamer (Yes) -- Danny is on the job<br>- A faster and bigger water boiler - kettle? (Yes) -- Roel is on the job<br>- fridge for drinks (zwarte vos has one for 35 eur)<br>

<strong>* Varia server backup issue</strong>
|
|
<br>- It's done! No issue :)<br>- <a href="https://vvvvvvaria.org/manual/index_files/server.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://vvvvvvaria.org/manual/index_files/server.html</a> (See "Making Backups" and friends)<br>- <a href="https://vvvvvvaria.org/~luke/backuplogs/" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://vvvvvvaria.org/~luke/backuplogs/</a>
|
|
<br>- it runs every night at 3am (4 min) and 4am (30 min), during a backup the server is down<br>- luke brain: to write manual entry with this info<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<strong>* Possible sandbox server & sudo rights</strong>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<ul class="indent">
|
|
<li>- sudo rights (relates to feminist server notes below)<ul class="indent">
|
|
<li>-- putting a monitor on the server to avoid bitcoinminers,ransomware,etc</li>
|
|
<li>-- introducing people to the </li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>- would be good to have another server where we can install things freely; one that does not interfere with the Varia main server. nonetheless with some things, sudo access is still necessary:</li>
|
|
<li> -- it can be hard to do work on the library without having rights on the server (we need the presence of Luke, otherwise we cannot restart the server)</li>
|
|
<li> -- or to work on the Varia archive without a sudoer with us</li>
|
|
<li>- can Varia commit/does Varia want to commit to a feminist server? what does this mean? what do we want to do?</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<ul class="indent">
|
|
<li>- it would be good to mention the fragility of our infrastructure, when people start to use it. For example, we can add a message in the Etherpad. -> <a href="https://pad.vvvvvvaria.org/variapad_introtext" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://pad.vvvvvvaria.org/variapad_introtext</a> Working on the expectations that we shape.</li>
|
|
<li>- we could write a mentioning/statement of our intention to relate to serving and hosting from a feminist perspective</li>
|
|
<li></li>
|
|
<li>- we probably will need a private etherpad, all these pads are basically on the street when someone knows the url</li>
|
|
<li>- 2 wifi networks, one public one that can be shared with everyone (Kamiel also has lightboxes for us ;) we could make a WIFI sign lightbox! one for each side)</li>
|
|
<li></li>
|
|
<li>- let's share telephone numbers and home addresses as backup networks</li>

<strong>A Feminist server…..</strong>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>– Is a situated technology.</li>
|
|
<li>– It is run for and by a community that cares enough for her/they to exist.</li>
|
|
<li>– It builds on the materiality of software, hardware and the bodies gathered around it.</li>
|
|
<li>– It opens herself/themselves to expose processes, tools, sources, habits, patterns.</li>
|
|
<li>– It knows that networking is actually an awkward, promiscuous and parasitic practice.</li>
|
|
<li>– It is autonomous in the sense that she/they decide for her/they own dependencies.</li>
|
|
<li>– It treats technology as part of a social reality, and finally</li>
|
|
<li>– It takes the risk of exposing her/they insecurity while trying hard not to apologies when she/they sometimes is/are not available.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<br> - Proposal to formally agree this to feminist server practice as Varia<br>\o/<br>
|
|
<br> - lbrain:<br> - basic user management docs in manual (hwo to add, query, add sudo, etc.)<br> - add some monitoring to check if the server has a master of coin on it<br> - hand out some sudo access!<br>
