Long Term Planning
A season of fundraising meetings have evolved into an effort to get Long Term Planning visions up to date. The fundraising group is currently reviewing wiki documents and interviewing Free Geek project coordinators. When all of Free Geek can speak with coherence on its long term plans, fundraising efforts can focus on rallying support from donors and others, on that set of plans.

Fundraising focus
Hi, I wrote this text below about governance, then moved out of state for a one year job. I'm back and learning more about Free Geek:, Category:Fundraising, and Category:Long Term Planning. I may be able to describe Free Geek's unique structure better than most, and fundraising seems like the most useful place to put that type of attention right now.

Governance Documentation Review
Free Geek is an extraordinary example of workplace democracy. This governance documentation review project supports democracy by making the Free Geek governance structure more transparent. If democracy is governance by the people, then the people need to know where their own power is, eh? Maybe one good outcome of the review would be a pretty power chart with "you are here" signs all over it. We'll see how it develops.
For now, the first step is to review our existing documentation of decision making processes and power relations inside Free Geek and then between Free Geek projects across the country. The next step is to compare the documents with current understandings of how things work and how they should work.
The council has expressed enthusiastic support for this project and I'd love to hear from volunteers interested in contributing to it.
