Reports from Working Groups:
Print:
- Form letters to local organizations soliciting articles and writers going
out this week
- Not much else to report
Outreach:
- Notes from Regional Gathering should be released after Halloween (Brian's
working on all the Prompting Theater haunted house stuff at the moment)
Space:
- Designs for a permanent sign being taken, contact Mike Lehman
- Bookshelf project almost complete, new shelving should be in place by next
Sunday
- Coat rack is definitely feasible, Mike and Space Group will put their
thinking caps on
- Fire dept. inspection last week
- One small complaint relating to electrical outlet in back room,
currently being fixed
- Extra fire extinguishers for haunted house, Brian will also ask landlord
to open back door as a fire exit
Librarians
- Working on an article about our library for 'Zine Library' (I think that's
the name)
- Tuesday, Espresso Royale, 5:15, anyone is welcome to come and help
- Proposal to donate old vinyl in back room to WEFT record sale, no
objections
Finance
- $4500 in accounts receivable
- Sascha needs help to work the phones an hour or two a week to collect
money, contact him if you want to help (and if you know anyone named Vinnie,
send them his way ;) )
Tech
- problem w/ MP3 uploading to server, Dan's currently working on it
- no meeting this week due to haunted house setup
New Business:
Prompting Theater's haunted house is running from Sunday to Wednesday this
week in the space
- staffing not necessary these days, although any help setting up the maze
and other ghoulish accoutrements would be appreciated
Global IMC Editorial Policy adopted on global Process list
- minor differences between this policy and U-C policy
- not sure about effects, will keep an eye on it
WEFT and Democracy Now!
- WEFT has had trouble getting Democracy Now! reliably from WBIX
- proposal to Steering Group that WEFT uses IMC facilities to download
DN! Mon-Fri in exchange for underwriting during DN! broadcasts
- no objections, proposal passes
- WEFTies will need a key, Mother Jones or Sergei will be reserved from
1-2 PM every weekday for download and MD recording
SOA protests in DC
- University Amnesty Intl. is going ahead with SOA teach-ins and organzing
for 16 November protests
- Meetings are Mondays, 7:30 at the University YMCA; contact Aaron Koonsman
for more info
Clean Space
- the core group of people who work to keep the space clean are getting a
little burnt out
- please do not allow clutter to accumulate; clearly label anything
that's being left in the space and make sure that you know why it's here
- put office supplies, production equipment, etc., back where it belongs,
or Mike Lehman will start bolting things down (we don't know how long we can
restrain him)
Bike Rack
- Danielle is asking for a bike rack outside
- in the meantime, please don't hurt the poor tree on the sidewalk by
attaching your bikes to it; bring them inside or use the bike rack across
the
street
Window Display
- in lieu of an American flag in the window, Mike Lehman proposes that we
put the Bill of Rights in the window
- Steering Group agrees to proposal
- Mike Lehman has a temporary printout in the window; if anyone can hunt
down a larger reproduction, a PDF file that we could print out to a larger
size than 8.5 x 11, mad calligraphy skills, or something nice, please talk
to
him
