Topics

Here's the list so far - please don't hesitate to add more! If you won't be able to attend, you can add your comments here or in the discussion to take part anyway :-)

Project Presentations

Let's take up to 2 × 20 minutes before each plenum to show others what we're working on! If you are interested in talking about your projects, please announce it here and/or via the Mailing List:

• БҌЛГаря...Bulgaria... Precious Plastics / Precious Waste? Ten-minute talk about a suggestion in development
• report from Make Ostwürttemberg
  • relatively small, few "real" Maker
  • OpenMoji
  • Optical fiber splicer

Future Location / UMZUG

Unfortunately, we can not stay in our building for a third year as we hoped, so the move already needs to happen in December!

The managers have already started viewing potential buildings and would be very happy to hear your ideas!

Do you know any suitable places that are not listed online? What could you contribute to the moving efforts?

• potential location would be in Pfaffengrund
• 667m^2 industrial hall

New (and newly available) tools at the space

• Scheppach DP 16 SL drill press
• Makita DRT50 cordless palm router
• awesome new table saw!

=> also see "Wish List"

Do-something days

• Lukas will start offering some long "do-something" nights after the Wednesday hours again - first spontaneous session with Luzian was very productive in the saw accessory wall storage department :-)

This is the place to talk about general improvements etc. - for example:

• What went well?
• What should get done at the space (new issues)?

Private Issue tracker

An anonymous member, that definitely doesn't want to be named, suggested a private issue tracker to post at various times of the day.

The plenum preferred the public nature of the Github issue tracker as it allows a broader range of people to participate.
