| jelkner | Great | 12:02 |
|---|---|---|
| jelkner | jkollie, i had a wonderful conversation with Tony (by phone) on Friday | 12:03 |
| jkollie | thats good to know | 12:03 |
| jelkner | i'm trying to understand better how Decidim fits into the goals of popular democracy and grass roots initiatives | 12:03 |
| jelkner | For NoVASEN, we will end wanting to do the following things: | 12:04 |
| jelkner | 1. Reflect on the state of our world and discuss what things need to be done to improve it. | 12:05 |
| jkollie | you have my full attention | 12:05 |
| jelkner | 2. Decide which of the things we agree need to be changed are most important for us to take action on. | 12:05 |
| jelkner | 3. Organize, plan, and act on these things. | 12:06 |
| jelkner | Tony made it clear to me that Decidim (which means "We Decide" after all) is designed for 1 and 2, but not 3. | 12:06 |
| jelkner | Having that clear in my mind helped a lot. | 12:06 |
| jkollie | 1 and 2 how do you mean please? | 12:07 |
| jelkner | For 3, we will need another tool. Something specifically designed for project management. | 12:07 |
| jelkner | I think the best way to answer your question, jkollie, is through practice. | 12:07 |
| jelkner | Let's try it out, so you can *see* what 1 and 2 mean. | 12:08 |
| jelkner | I'll submit a proposal to build a solidarity economy / social justice computing school in Liberia into our Decidim. | 12:09 |
| jelkner | then the rest of the Jetro crew can join the discussion | 12:09 |
| jelkner | so we can begin to develop a shared vision together for what we are trying to do | 12:09 |
| jelkner | or at least see if we can do that | 12:10 |
| jelkner | it is possible that we don't agree on what needs to be done | 12:10 |
| jelkner | that will be helpful to know too, of course, since it may suggest *not* going forward with a project we don't agree needs to be done. | 12:10 |
| jelkner | i saw you dropped off | 12:10 |
| jelkner | please look in the logs and email me with your thoughts. | 12:11 |
| jkollie_ | yeah | 12:11 |
| jkollie_ | its the network | 12:11 |
| jelkner | we need to fix that! | 12:11 |
| jelkner | we can't do business effectively if you don't have connectivity | 12:11 |
| jelkner | that's why we go the office | 12:11 |
| jelkner | what are you going to do at 10 am today? (15:00 UTC)? | 12:12 |
| jelkner | you can't use jitsi, and you can't join our SJC board meeting, unless you have reliable connectivity | 12:12 |
| jelkner | i was hoping you would be able to go to the Jetro office now | 12:12 |
| jelkner | and have what you need | 12:13 |
| jkollie_ | i'll join, but I pray I dont drop off | 12:13 |
| jelkner | Praying is not the best solution here, jkollie_ | 12:13 |
| jkollie_ | right | 12:13 |
| jelkner | can you get to the office? | 12:14 |
| jkollie_ | +1 | 12:14 |
| jelkner | great, then we can count on thomasboimah setting you up with the connectivity you need | 12:14 |
| jelkner | that's why we got the office | 12:14 |
| jelkner | ok, let's talk then | 12:14 |
| jkollie_ | alright | 12:14 |
| jelkner | i have a lot of work to do between now and then | 12:14 |
| jelkner | see you in a few hours.... | 12:15 |
| jelkner | ACTION logs off until the SJC board meeting | 12:15 |
| jelkner has quit (Quit: Leaving) | 12:15 | |
| jkollie has quit (Ping timeout: 480 seconds) | 12:16 | |
| jkollie_ has quit (Quit: Leaving) | 12:16 | |
| thomasboimah | yeah | 12:17 |
| thomasboimah | I was able to login | 12:17 |
| thomasboimah has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) | 12:51 | |
| tboimah has quit (None) | 12:51 | |
| jelkner | Hello freena_! | 14:49 |
| jelkner | thomasboimah, are you in the office? | 14:49 |
| thomasboimah | No | 14:51 |
| thomasboimah | I did not go to the office today | 14:51 |
| jelkner | thomasboimah, it would be really nice if you or Daniel could support jkollie_ when she has an SJC board meeting. | 14:55 |
| jelkner | Failure to do that is a failure in Jetro cooperation | 14:55 |
| jelkner | since you all depend on each other | 14:55 |
| thomasboimah | sure. But i did not know that Janet have meeting today | 14:56 |
| jelkner | that's on her | 14:56 |
| jelkner | she isn't communicating effectively | 14:56 |
| jelkner | i don't know what to tell y'all, except that success or failure of this project depends on us increasing our ability to to things well | 14:57 |
| thomasboimah | What i will try to do is to teach her on how to please her schedule on the share calender | 14:57 |
| jkollie_ | I did mention about the meeting thomasboimah | 14:57 |
| jelkner | and among the most important of those "things" is communication! | 14:57 |
| jelkner | i think you should set up a single nextcloud calendar for Jetro web | 14:57 |
| jelkner | and then learn to use it! | 14:57 |
| jelkner | That way you get in the habit of looking *one place* | 14:58 |
| thomasboimah | *place | 14:58 |
| thomasboimah | This will not happen again jelkner | 14:58 |
| thomasboimah | I will try to make sure it not happen again | 14:59 |
| thomasboimah | *do | 14:59 |
