zOnny:) nice replaceafill11:36
jelknerwe do11:36
jelknerwe have two:11:36
jelknernovalaciro.org11:37
jelknerand novalaciro.us11:37
replaceafilljelkner, are those under namecheap?11:37
jelknerthey are11:37
jelkneri can share control with you11:37
replaceafilljelkner, could you give me access to them11:37
replaceafilljelkner, thanks11:37
replaceafilli think i have all i need11:37
jelknerhow do we bill novalaciro for this?11:37
lelkneralfarojelkner, prepare an invoice for the cost11:38
jelknerright, but how do we know the cost?11:38
jelknerthe cost should include two things:11:39
lelkneralfarojelkner, how much do you have to pay to set it up11:39
lelkneralfaro+11:39
lelkneralfarotime to set it up11:39
lelkneralfaroat the cost per hour of whomever set it up11:39
jelknerand the cost of billing11:39
jelknerat the cost per hour of whomever bills11:39
jelknercollects payment11:39
replaceafilldo you guys think we should keep timesheets by client?11:40
jelknerdeposits it in our bank, etc11:40
jelkner+111:40
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, yes11:40
replaceafilland we write down what task we have done for them and who did them?11:40
jelknerwe have been muddying this til now11:40
replaceafillcool, we should do that11:40
jelknersince i've been paying for most of it11:40
lelkneralfaroyes it would be good to keep better track11:40
jelknerbut that needs to stop11:40
jelknerok, done with that11:41
jelknernext...11:41
lelkneralfaromeaning of cooperative membership11:41
lelkneralfaroto begin, the simple meaning, is that all members pitch in to the business11:42
lelkneralfaroand own it cooperatively11:42
lelkneralfaroand that all members are entitled to vote on the decisions that the cooperative makes11:43
lelkneralfaroso the benefit is that worker-owners get to take part in a democratically run business11:44
lelkneralfaroas far as how we exercise that democracy11:45
lelkneralfarothat is largely up for us to decide11:45
lelkneralfaroas long as we adhere to the 7 principles of cooperatives11:45
lelkneralfarohttps://www.slvrec.com/content/7-cooperative-principles11:45
jelknerlelkneralfaro, let me know when we can ask questions11:46
lelkneralfarogo for it11:46
lelkneralfaroI'll jump into the bylaws in a sec11:46
lelkneralfarobut first I'll take comments/questions11:47
jelknerfor me, principle number 7 is extremely important11:47
jelknerdoes that free us legally from the normal corporate requirement in the US to be sociopaths?11:47
lelkneralfarojelkner, I think you are fishing for an easy answer here11:48
jelknernormal law in the US requires that corporations have a total disregard (if not downright disdain) for human beings11:48
jelknerthe are required to maximize profits11:49
jelknereven if the end of our species would result11:49
jelknerfrom the behavior in which they engage to that end11:49
jelknerRule 7 says "While focusing on member needs, cooperatives work for the sustainable development of communities through policies and programs accepted by the members."11:50
jelknerSince we are democratically owned, we can do that, yes?11:50
jelknerI mean, if we want to "make a living and not a killing", as long as a majority of us agree to that11:50
lelkneralfarojelkner, yes...11:50
lelkneralfarojelkner, I think other corporations could do so to if their shareholders didn't want to exercise their right to profit maximization11:51
jelknerwe can't have one disgruntled individual bring charges against us for not maximizing profits at the expense of human well begin11:51
jelknernot so11:51
jelknermy understanding is that case law in the US has shown that corporations exist *only* to maximize profit11:52
lelkneralfarojelkner, they could make the argument that profit is what's best for people11:52
lelkneralfarojelkner, but I think this is a discussion for another time anyway11:52
jelknerand they would win11:52
jelknersince that is our religion here11:52
jelknerthat's why i'm asking11:53
jelkneri know people have been trying to get around that11:53
lelkneralfarojelkner, I think that if the majority of cooperative members wanted to maximize profit11:53
jelknerwith things like C-Corps and Coops11:53
lelkneralfarojelkner, they might have the right to run their cooperative in such a manner11:53
jelknerof course they would11:54
jelknerthat's the democratic principle11:54
jelkneri'm not talking about that case11:54
jelkneri'm talking about if a majority of us decide not to poison the river and kill all the fish even though doing so would make us a fortune11:55
jelknerif we have a right to do that, and a single member can't take us to court for not maximizing our profit11:55
jelkneri thinks we can do what i'm saying11:56
lelkneralfarohttps://www.nytimes.com/roomfordebate/2015/04/16/what-are-corporations-obligations-to-shareholders/corporations-dont-have-to-maximize-profits11:56
lelkneralfarojelkner, and no they can't11:56
jelknerokie dokie11:57
jelknerhttps://www.amazon.com/The-Corporation-Jane-Akre/dp/B002ZVKL0G11:57
lelkneralfarojelkner, I'm interested to talk to you after11:58
jelknercool11:58
lelkneralfarojelkner, but let's leave it til then11:58
jelkner+111:58
lelkneralfaroback to the bylaws11:58
lelkneralfarohttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1tuJ7grsg9DNzO0xMDkdzJ1vEzd1L79_XoYUjClkEjOQ/edit11:58
lelkneralfaroI've put together this document, which we can work through together. 11:58
lelkneralfaroand it will be our agreement on how we run the business11:59
lelkneralfarowe can stay late today and go through it now, or if you'd like you can take the week to look it over11:59
lelkneralfaroand we can talk about it next week11:59
lelkneralfarofor those who won't be here, we can take notes and ask for your weigh in through email12:00
replaceafillthanks :)12:00
lelkneralfaro:)12:01
lelkneralfarowhat do people think?12:01
replaceafilli wasn't able to read past article 5, so next week would be better12:01
lelkneralfarocool12:02
lelkneralfaroand everyone feel free to ask questions12:02
jelkneri would strongly encourage all perspective members to read over this12:03
jelknersince it will define our governance12:04
jelknerwe all like each other12:04
jelknerand we're small12:04
jelknerbut as we grow12:04
jelknerwe can expect disagreements to occasionally arise12:04
jelknergood governance has as its goal to minimize the pain when that happens12:04
jelknerso in the spirit of making nova web dev a real cooperative12:05
jelknerlet's look forward to a good discussion next week12:05
lelkneralfarowant to wrap it up for now?12:06
replaceafilli have a question12:06
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, please12:06
replaceafillhow would that conversation go?12:06
replaceafilli mean, would we go through each article12:07
replaceafilland ask everybody, do you agree with everything in here?12:07
replaceafillthen next, and so on?12:07
jelkneri would hope for just that process, replaceafill 12:07
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, I'd prefer if people go through it themselves12:08
jelknerwe may need a few iterations12:08
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, over the week12:08
lelkneralfaroand return with questions/disagreements/ suggestions12:08
lelkneralfarobut there are a few things that we must decide together12:09
replaceafillthe yellow parts, right?12:09
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, yup12:09
replaceafillok, thanks12:09
jelknerlelkneralfaro, i have one concern about what you are proposing, though12:10
lelkneralfarojelkner, go for it12:10
jelkneras someone long active politically, i have no shyness about voicing my concerns12:10
jelknerand i am also able to read a document like this with some understanding of the implications of this or that point12:11
jelknerbut we have some younger folks who we are talking to about being founding members12:11
jelknerit is really important to talk with them (perhaps you can do that one-on-one)12:11
jelknerand not just say "go read this thing"12:11
jelknerthat's my concern12:12
lelkneralfarothat's a fair concern12:12
lelkneralfaroif anyone wants help understanding the document or cooperatives, feel free to reach out to me12:13
lelkneralfaroI'll be happy to share what I know12:13
lelkneralfaroand do my best to answer any questions12:14
jelknercan we also do this -12:14
jelknersince i see zOnny on a regular basis12:14
lelkneralfarobut if you're interested in understanding the document, I think it is important you try to digest it on your own as best you can12:14
jelkneri'll talk to him individually12:15
jelknersince replaceafill can communicate with nrcerna, he can talk to her12:15
jelknerdoes that make sense?12:15
lelkneralfarojelkner, for sure12:15
replaceafillthat works for me12:15
jelkneri'm also meeting with ubuntourist hopefully this wednesday12:15
jelknerto talk with him12:15

jelkneris lealkneralfaro coming?13:14
jelknershould i be asking people to sign-in / sign-up?13:15
replaceafilljelkner, have you seen this: https://gitlab.com/novawebdevelopment/ora-ams/issues/1013:15
replaceafilljelkner, it was filed by Mike 2 days ago13:16
replaceafilljelkner, the underlying part is what we have, the access to the button is different13:16
replaceafilljelkner, my goal is to have that button in the homepage tomorrow13:16
jelknerok13:17
replaceafilljelkner, but i'm not sure about this new workflow13:17
replaceafilljelkner, now that Mike is onboard13:17
replaceafilljelkner, should we wait for his approval to deploy things?13:17
jelkneri'm going to have to let lealkneralfaro and you determine that13:17
replaceafilljelkner, ok13:18
jelkneri don't have the ability to interact regularly with them13:18
replaceafilljelkner, sure13:18
jelkneronly lelkneralfaro does13:18
replaceafilljelkner, ok13:18
jelkneri would just appreciate instructions from you two as to what (if anything) i should do tomorrow13:19
jelknerwhen i get to the meeting13:19
replaceafilljelkner, ok, i'll contact you either at the end of the day or tomorrow13:19

*** lelkneralfaro has joined #novawebdev13:26
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, hey you there?13:27
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, yes13:27
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, my dad just left me a message asking about the attendance feature tomorrow13:27
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, did you two just talk about it?13:27
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, yes13:27
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, i told him Mike requested a slight different feature13:28
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, and that i'm not sure about our workflow with Mike going forward13:28
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, do you plan on having that ready for tomorrow? or should they sign up the old way13:28
lelkneralfaro?13:28
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, i mean, are we going to wait for Mike's approval before deploying things13:28
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, if i can solve the last problem in the php app (i have a good idea) i think it'll be ready13:29
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, and we (you and i) could test it tomorrow during our meeting13:29
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, that works for me. and if it's ready I don't think Mike will have any objections to deploying something this straightforward13:29
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, cool13:30
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, although generally i suppose it is good to check with him first13:30
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, but this doesn't seem controversial13:30
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, sure13:30
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, and the time thing has been sorted out?13:30
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, yes13:30
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, wonderful. 13:31
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, i'll just double check that the server picked up the DST change13:31
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, perfect13:31
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, hopefully putting the button in the homepage will increase the number of people clicking it :)13:31
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, or even signing up13:32
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, hopefully so! :)13:32
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, although I'm sure they will have password problems again13:32
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, but we have the reset link there already ;)13:32
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, yup so I hope it goes :)13:32
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, i'm also thinking of deploying the facebook sidebar once mr_german is done with that13:33
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, that's also not that "controversial", right?13:33
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, nope it doesnt seem so13:34
lelkneralfaroalright i'll talk to you later13:48
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, 13:48
lelkneralfarosigning off irc for now13:48
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, cool13:48
