Report from the board
financial report: we have 64 members
- 5-6 members might be inactive - needs investigating
- savings account - 1200 EUR
- debit account - 1450 EUR
- most members are paying regularly
- rent for april is paid
Question: monthly income compared to outgoings
- rough guess: at break even point
membership system being looked into - possibly based around galette
question about 'phantom members' - what happens to their assets legally - members are members for a year - we can chase them for payments
- can get a note from the board agreeing to let them leave
board will come up with a solution for these 'grey areas' for membership
aldert makes a statement - a member who is not paying is allowed to vote
4.
- Do we accept "controversial" members (and projects) in our space? (Wizzup)
time is 1948 statutes say board decide if someone cannot be a member no procedure for denying membership point has become 'unvotable' board can suspend a member if he/she works against the interests of association
proposal for 'house rules'
- volunteers - anne jan, realitygaps, wizzup, arnd, amran
- suggestion that it be agreed by decree of ALV
- _ALL_ Video/Audio/Photo taking/recording is not allowed, unless everyone who would be on the recording has been asked explicit permission. Taking pictures of the space is allowed; use common sense. (Wizzup)
- On events slightly different rules may apply to record a talk; but there should still be camera-free places in the space during such events.
- Note: Cameras include _actively_ _using_ smartphones (taking recordings with them) and google glass-like devices.
