+HR has not spoken much since last week on volunteer retention issues; they will discuss it at their next meeting.
-== Reports ==
+Our data is not very good, partially because of the tendency of long-term volunteers (core and build) not to record their hours.  Side note: a regular build instructor meeting to update instructors on policies would be nice.
-Reports from other working groups. Use headings with equal signs, like this:

+Our major categories of concerns (from 6/27):
-=== Foobar Report ===
+A good thing, probably: most of our recommendations so far are things that would be good for FG to do regardless of whether we go forward with Providence.
-== Old Business ==
+== Cultural changes ==
-copy from previous meeting's minutes
+Small stipends (for gas or food) could help dedicated volunteers keep coming. The thing to be careful about would be running into issues where it's unclear whether we're employing people.
-=== Item 1 ===
+Super-large build workshops could be impossible to cover with volunteer teachers.
-== New Business ==
+Cultural changes will be different depending on what plans we go forward with. We will need to try to envision each plan we come up with and try to figure out what stresses that will put on our culture.
-=== Item 1 ===
+If build gets even easier, then it will be much less appealing to people who come here to learn.
