Proposal: Change of social media platform policies

[DRAFT of a votable point for a future ALV]

Goal of the votable point

There are various social-media channels created with the "Techinc" name/branding. We want to use these social-media to generate awareness of Techinc its activities and values to non-members that would otherwise not know of our existence.

This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Meetup
  • Mastodon
  • Facebook
  • Twitter
  • Radar.squat.net
  • LinkedIn

The explicit goal of this votable point is to use social media is to expand the reach of Techinc beyond the "in the know" community, but without making these platforms a source of any unique content. We will use the platforms to repost relevant content that is already available on techinc.nl to these platforms, linking back to Techinc's infrastructure. Conversations on these platforms should be referring to wiki, mailing-lists or IRC when appropriate. It is explicitly frowned upon to create unique content on these external platforms.

Context of this votable point

In the summer of 2013 the ALV decided to make Social-media "officially unofficial", meaning that you can refer to or promote Techinc and/or it's events but you should only do so in as a member, not "techinc".

https://wiki.techinc.nl/index.php/ALV_2013_06_29/Minutes

This votable point aims to amend that decision. Allowing a set of members to be engage on various platforms as "Techinc".

Implementation of the votable point

  1. We create a "Propaganda Committee" (PropComm) that maintains those accounts.
    • PropComm will consist of 3 members, elected by a ALV vote.
    • The set can have overlap with board members. However board members cannot have a majority vote in PropComm.
  2. The ALV will request members who currently control those accounts to relinquish control to the PropComm once it is established.
  3. PropComm will maintain a Techinc wiki page where they maintain an overview of the ownership and integrations with various platforms.
  4. PropComm members are invited to automate the interactions with external platforms.
  5. PropComm will not encourage Techinc members to use these platforms in active ways.
