🌻:U/Kbot/Org-Goals

Just 6 little thoughts on goals:

Knowledge Sharing

• Make space for people to teach their skill and knowledge to others. Cross-pollinate ideas. Spread to the wider community. Teach classes. Do study groups.

Be Open Longer

• Coordinate building access and scheduling. Try to have the space 'open' as often as we can. It's fun to drop in when people are there already :]

Membership Growth and Recruitment

• We need more people to achieve more of our goals. Organize a formal recruitment process. Define who the space is for, what we value, what we need from each other, and how we wish to present ourselves to the public community. This needs to be carefully defined, written, and agreed upon.

Usability

• Make the process to join clear and easy. "Just send an email" as a gate to join feels like purposeful anti-usability. Matrix usability is poor as-is too and not a great way to get to know new people. Just a simple formal recruitment web page with clear info on the process would go a long way. Doing bigger off-site meetups for vetting. Make the process clear and easy.

Outreach

• Do formal outreach and mutual aid. Encourage Cyberians to go out into their respective communities and offer support and resources. Even just keeping contact with other groups can help us plug people in where they can help each other.

Infrastructure

• We need more people to support infrastructure as is before we can grow. We have many people already. How can we organize what we already have and then sustainably add more. As we recruit more people, find places to plug them in to the process.
