00:16:14 Daniel T: @Ben F - can you ping me on Discord?

00:17:15 Alessio P: lets create a Human Resources department

00:17:43 Ben D: It’s called Recruitment & Relationships

00:17:57 Ben D: But i think it’s due for a name change

00:19:17 Anna T: Question on the humans app - everyone involved in organising the event needs to sign up on it? leads, volunteers etc. ?

00:19:41 Oliver: @Anna: Thanks for that question. I was about to ask the same.

00:19:44 Nour P: It wasn’t supposed to be a licence aggreement to have the autorization to use the containers ?

00:20:10 Ben D: Yep - but we’re working out how to make it smoother if you’ve already filled out a million signup forms XD

00:22:37 Julian R: Timeline Go/No-Go Process by Governance Working Group — Feb 20/21: Stakeholder interviews and data gathering wraps and analysis done. Feb 22: Information and analysis package published (evening). Feb 24/25: Poll opens to everyone who signed up to be association ‘collaborators’. Feb 27: Poll closes (11:59pm CET). Feb 28: Board reviews results and announces decision.

00:24:09 Diego C: How many collaborators in total at this pont?

00:24:30 Diego C: You’re amazing <3

00:25:43 Pablo V: clarifications: "collaborators" are to collab with NCA. "members" are one level above and have also the right to vote

00:26:25 Sara P: Totally missed the onboarding form . Thanks for sending follow up email Ben

00:27:55 Kate B: Amazing

00:29:01 Ant H: another form? im out!!

00:29:08 Pablo V: haha

00:29:12 Julian R: Can you shortly explain why the NCA needs members and if all future event attendands will need to be members?

00:29:21 Anna T: Ooh forms 😋

00:29:30 Pablo V: a friend told me "burns are raves with bureaucracy"

00:29:35 Daniel T: you haven’t lived until you’ve filled the forms

00:30:09 Chris O: On behalf of Malfare we always need more forms

00:30:26 Daniel T: @Chris can we rename it to Malform?

00:30:52 Pablo V: members "own" the association in the sense that they elect the board and make decisions. collaborators are cleared (operationally) to work with an event or year round. participants can come party-cipate

00:32:08 Daniel T: No one actually suggested Eventy McEventFace. I was disappointed. :-(

00:32:14 Ant H: 3000 suggestions from 100 people

00:33:27 Pablo’s Notetaker: Pablo is on a Basic Otter plan with 30 minute meetings. To record longer meetings, upgrade to Pro: https://otter.ai/pricing?utm_source=oa-chat-basic

00:33:37 Anna T: Daniela - could I get a link or contact for where to add vacant positions? There are a couple of desirable ones for Participant Wellness that aren’t on the sheet yet. Shall I send you an email or do you have a different process?

00:33:47 David B: 🫶 Daruda Sandstorms

00:34:07 Chris O: Kate – Erin asked in the Discord if you could tell who the team is working with you, if you can put that in the chat or answer it in QA

00:34:24 Daniel T: @Anna - best to ping her on Discord I think

00:34:34 Daniela S: Anna! will message you

00:34:38 Kate B: Sure. It’s Bambi and Ela.

00:34:45 Chris O: ty

00:34:55 Anna T: Thank you ☺️

00:35:25 Ben F: "We’re Here"

00:36:19 Ant H: what is the timeline for getting the asset transfer paperwork done?

00:36:51 Diego C: Talk to ben on Discord:)

00:37:01 Nour P: Do you have an idea of a date for a go/no go decision ? -maybe It was answered before tho-

00:37:14 David B: 28/02

00:37:18 Josef H: remind me, where is the form to become a member?

00:37:26 Eric M: I have two questions. 1st one, I understand that we do not have confirmation yet about if we can use going Nowhere containers and stuff right?

00:37:32 Ant H: i heard it mentioned. but its a major factor and it would be good to get a little more info, timeline? likelihood of success? etc...? if anyone here knows more about it

00:37:36 lachlan: Hello Ben F!

00:38:03 Joao T: I think the regular meetings are great and I think by now the info is seeping through the community. Thanks to all involved! :)

00:38:15 Curious Creatures: The new nowhere name is just for upcoming year right? When the asset and IP transfer is done we use the ‘old’ nowhere name again?

00:38:45 Diego C: @nours Timeline Go/No-Go Process by Governance Working Group — Feb 20/21: Stakeholder interviews and data gathering wraps and analysis done. Feb 22: Information and analysis package published (evening). Feb 24/25: Poll opens to everyone who signed up to be association ‘collaborators’. Feb 27: Poll closes (11:59pm CET). Feb 28: Board reviews results and announces decision.

00:39:31 Ant H: and we will know more within a week or so? once youve had those conversations?

00:39:42 Chris O: Collaborator/member application is on https://nobodies.team

00:39:45 Ant H: snap

00:39:48 Ant H: OK thanks

00:40:00 Josef H: thx

00:40:08 Eric M: I have two questions. 1st one, I understand that we do not have confirmation yet about if we can use going Nowhere containers and stuff right? 2nd one: Cocci said on Discord that we may have to organize a similar size event as in 2025 to be able to receive the Going Nowhere assets. Is that information confirmed by any of Going Nowhere directors?

00:40:57 Ant H: another form? im out!!

00:41:59 Ant H: the asset transfers we are asking about includes the physical assets like containers. i havent heard anything about the event having to be the same size, im prretty sure that isnt a concern

00:42:06 Anna T: I think the question is around the email list, facebook group, telegram etc.

00:42:28 Ant H: Pepe is saying the asset transfers are getting underway ASAP

00:45:03 Joao T: There’s nothing preventing us who are here from contacting people we know directly and letting them know about what’s happening

00:45:24 Joao T: So please try to forward the info to pretty much everyone you know who might be interested :)

00:45:42 lachlan: Word of mouth would be fine. No paper trail their.

00:45:57 lachlan: "Hey come join on our new org for a burn in spain!"

00:46:40 Pablo V: we’ve identified 4-5 categories of assets: 1. 15 containers, critical for build 2. brand & identity. eg nowhere name 3. mailing lists & comms 4. some safety & ops items

00:46:59 Kate B: can I add something about the Go / No Go process

00:47:06 Curious Creatures: Ok clear!

00:47:24 Diego C: Please do kate! Raise your hand

00:47:35 Joao T: We can’t get the mailing list directly from GNSL due to GDPR, but we can directly contact everyone we know personally or have contacts from other sources.

00:47:50 Pablo V: word of mouth + each of us promoting everywhere works always :)

00:48:08 Ant H: German Peoples Deomcratic Republic

00:48:20 Kate B: if you have info that you really want to be heard please discord | katebee_95329

00:50:38 Eric M: Okeys! Thank you for the clarification! You are awesome 💜

00:50:47 Kate B: is there a group working on that directly Chris?

00:51:08 Chris O: I think that group is called Daniela :)

00:51:13 miguelvb: hi, can you post here the link to the discord channel?

00:51:25 Pablo V: Daniela WG

00:51:42 Diego C: https://discord.gg/bDQfcpPKv

00:51:46 Kate B: essential WG

00:52:23 David B: Michel you didn’t prepare anything for us ?

00:52:36 Anna T: Sending everyone love and appreciation 🥰

00:52:39 Diego C: Do you think we’ll have an answer for containers before the go/nogo interviews are done?

00:52:46 Michel U: will do !

00:52:49 Joao T: Yay for shorter meetings :P

00:52:52 Ant H: i feel like we are in a holding pattern until some of the legal paperwork is done...

00:53:19 Justin B: the continers are not the main issue

00:53:37 Diego C: How so?

00:53:50 Ant H: they are critical

00:54:02 Ant H: they are critical

00:54:17 Ant H: but wont be a big problem in terms of tranferring them i dont think

00:54:44 Ant H: can we make the meeting longer?

00:55:23 Daniel T: Make Meetings Long Again

00:55:52 Ant H: sorry whats the q?

00:56:18 Ant H: sorry i cant do voice

00:56:33 Ant H: basically its only the legal paper word side thats a concern i think

00:56:56 Ant H: the logistics, if we get ownership, arent that complicated...

00:57:22 Leanna P: Hiya- do you have an asset list of the containers so that everyone knows contents? Will be crucial for legal trnsfer (and your community in polling process)

00:57:42 Ant H: its fine, these things take time.. in a couple weeks it will all be done... i just wantto get started planning... but cant really until tjhat part is confirmed..

00:58:09 Ant H: GNSL should give them to us for a nominal amount, the value of whats in them is irrelelvant i think

00:59:05 Eric M: @Leanna I’m pretty sure that’s been done and is one the things the Association is negotiating with Going Nowhere SL

00:59:41 Pepe C: Anything open source is game

01:01:01 Leanna P: thanks @eric

01:03:49 David B: Just want to thank everyone for the great work ! A lot of our barrio members are super excited for this year and motivated to spread the word so we get a lot of nobodies ! Hope we make it :)

01:03:56 Curious Creatures: Thank you!

01:04:06 Curious Creatures: Lol

01:04:24 Ant H: Its the only job of a build lead.... to know all the things in all the containers..

01:04:36 Pablo V: we had to use up the hour to get our money’s worth

01:04:43 Chris O: Anyone going to Burning Barcelona see you shortly

01:04:59 Eric M: I’m going to Burning Barna!

01:05:11 Eric M: Meet you there!

01:05:18 Diego C: Cheers thanks for your werk
