Agenda Item Discussions

Should Cyberia and LZ merge in some way?

  • Right now, the Cyberia MN-official non profit does not exist anymore-- non profit license expired.

  • Do we want to have a Cyberia non-profit specifically for Cyberia computer club (the online thing)? that also kind of blends into th in person stuff? or do we want to let cyberia be a separate thing (maybe no nonprofit) maybe LZ needs the nonprofit

  • In the long term, esp w j3s move :(, Forest would <3 to see LZ get Non-Profit and have Non Profit be leaseholder.

  • Starless proposes: Make a MN-Local NonProfit entity for Layer Zero with the intent that the LZ np entity becomes the lease-holder of the Layer Zero physical space. Seconded by zico

  • All in favor of labor not going to renew Cyberia/renewing as Layer Zero motion passed unanimously

  • Cyberia is still the group of people, Layer Zero is where we hang out.

Plover colab?

  • Plover will be invited to the Baikal Retirement Party

Saturday work stuff ideas:

  • Build a way to carry Baikal as a group

  • Come up with Baikal retirement ritual

  • Document finances

  • Fill out LZ nonprofit paperwork

  • People's Pride application

  • Hudson pride application (ixex)

Last item: Forest loves all of us. Seconded by starless.

Starless motions to close congress, Fack seconds, motion passes unanimously.
