		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;moving from main page -- duplications&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;This stuff is all repeated on the main page. Double check that assertion and then remove from here or incorporate&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Unsorted===&lt;br /&gt;
* we want staff to be paid a solid living wage, including retirement planning (ability to live the rest of your life on your FG income)&lt;br /&gt;
* clarity in FG&amp;#039;s attitute towards free software &lt;br /&gt;
* more FG&amp;#039;s &lt;br /&gt;
* more FG&amp;#039;s that are sustainable, and more advice (Franchise Coordinator or Ambassador)&lt;br /&gt;
* more artistic expression on boxes (i.e. FG stencil or paint option)&lt;br /&gt;
* GAP program growth&lt;br /&gt;
* more community partnerships with non-profits, maybe adoption volunteers can volunteer elsewhere&lt;br /&gt;
** this could be accomplished by sending out store spec boxes&lt;br /&gt;
* more partnerships with businesses that donate large amounts of stuff&lt;br /&gt;
* pickups (fleet of vehicles?!)&lt;br /&gt;
** scheduled neighborhood pickups&lt;br /&gt;
* FG more accesible / reach broader audience&lt;br /&gt;
* more variety of volunteer programs (especially real-life skills)&lt;br /&gt;
* open 7 days a week&lt;br /&gt;
* stay small scale and spread faster&lt;br /&gt;
* more efficient FG (full floor staffing all the time)&lt;br /&gt;
* more paid interns gaining actual job experience (can complement full floor staffing)&lt;br /&gt;
* satellite thrift store(s) &amp;amp; drop-off locations or partner with local second-hand stores&lt;br /&gt;
** could turn into branch FG&amp;#039;s in PDX-area&lt;br /&gt;
* better administration coverage (facilities, systems admin, bookkeeping)&lt;br /&gt;
* schduleding software (Richard/Dave quits if we don&amp;#039;t get this within 5 years)&lt;br /&gt;
* more programs for geeklets (kids)&lt;br /&gt;
* cleaner, including clutter AND dirt (central vacuuming for build &amp;amp; eval)&lt;br /&gt;
* mobile, fly-by-night FG in a box&lt;br /&gt;
* clarify the &amp;#039;community technology&amp;#039; aspect&lt;br /&gt;
** i.e. what people can do other than volunteer here and make that clear &amp;amp; welcoming (internet use)&lt;br /&gt;
* more volunteer rewards - fun stuff to retain volunteers (untraditional is better)&lt;br /&gt;
* certifications (i.e. better education)&lt;br /&gt;
* be more embracing of software replacing tasks&lt;br /&gt;
* better recognition of FG&lt;br /&gt;
* low-tech solutions before high-tech solutions&lt;br /&gt;
* more detailed recycling (take apart more stuff)&lt;br /&gt;
* make recycling more educational (what is this, where would it go if not recycled, etc?)&lt;br /&gt;
** this would be very good for schoolkids (geeklets) to learn&lt;br /&gt;
* a facility we own&lt;br /&gt;
* FG stamp of approval for other businesses (particularly e-waste biz)&lt;br /&gt;
* better routing of people to appropriate places they want to do&lt;br /&gt;
* classes classes classes&lt;br /&gt;
* grantwriter on staff&lt;br /&gt;
* make store more accessible for non-geeks [[User:Ali|Ali]] 14:19, 15 February 2007 (PST)&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
