Sister Free Geek

  • Rick says if we spin off a sister Free Geek, we should consider Beaverton, since it has nice computers.
  • Richard says the volunteers are in North Portland.
  • Martin says where would staff come from?
  • Analysis of ZIP code/ geographic data could tell us where to put a new one.
  • Smaller satellite Free Geeks (i.e. Hood River)

Collab

  • If Collab were gone, we'd be well staffed (maybe over staffed). Core programs should take priority.
  • Proposal to council was not outside.
  • Soup up Grants Program.
  • Integrate into Grants, or separate program.
  • Time sensitive stuff is the hardest to do for us.
  • Relationship with an external group?
  • Find existing organizations to refer folks to.
  • Enhance tech support and education first.
  • What about small for profit businesses?

Africa Projects

  • Building computers and/or supplying parts for African NGOs
  • Helping start new Free Geeks in South Africa
