Review Previous Todos: patcon’s personal and unofficial dynalist

pc: disclaimer: personal hypha todos are mixed in
pc: #todo are for actions. #YYYY-MM-DD are for specific meetings. #upcoming are for nearterm surfacing. ones without dates are usually skimmed from chat or pc’s noticings

y: bringing up feelings and sharing space more equally

idea is that silence is hard to read. more speaking.

y: discussion about lead generation (patcon)

#todo for migrating
pc: feel we’re in holding pattern on PM org definition. pc thought it was about creating role
pc: #todo bring LinkedIn convo into brand loomio thread
y: investigate which exiting coop places we should be in. mailing lists etc. #todo

Vote on membership into Canadian Worker Co-op Federation vote

took time to read. will vote in loomio proposal
5/5 in favour. consensed on paying for membership in CWCF
- Loomio thread: Join Canadian Worker Co-op Federation as Regular (Worker Co-op) Members
y: thoughts on org-pm, gi?
- gi: still outstanding. #todo come back with proposal
  - parallelized task tracker convo. want to make sure not conflict.
  - pc: 2 decisions in loomio:
    - Loomio thread:
      - We should strive to use a SINGLE task-tracker tool across the org (esp in near term)
      - What task-tracker tool should we use internally?
- pc: gi, should project PM be able to make decisions for team, incl using a separate task tracker?
  - gi: more that PM should be able to integrate team’s feedback and bring that forward.
  - cross bridge when come to it.
  - gi: not being able to attach due dates. these are big at past work-arounds:
    - pings with ppl might be ok
    - discrete chunks, e.g. sprints or epics might resolve this
  - dc: need to just say the need that this tool is meeting.
    - with EDGI, experimented with saying why we’re using the tool. e.g., client-facing and internal.
      - #todo for our https://link.hypha.coop/inventory
    - gi: maybe good for discussion
    - dc: someone just needs to write it out. moreso review than discussion. could go in handbook.
      - not a blocker on tool decision
    - #todo add “why” to each tool in inventory.
    - #todo do this for just the task tracker first (dc)
    - #decide to try github projects
      - all: consensed by video poll
    - y: #todo populate task board with past tasks
      - dc: pc did dynalist work already
      - dc: cowork to populate tasks?
      - pc: #todo schedule thurs/fri cowork with dc. cowork if possible. async if not.
      - pc: should we have a checkin on decision to commit?
      - gi: worries about timing, grooming sesh?
      - dc: 1 mo prob too soon for decision. good timeframe to surface learnings.
      - dc: suggestion: timeboxed grooming session?
        
        GREAT IDEA DAWN/GARRY
        
        1 month from now
        
        #todo dc: coord grooming session?
