[Noisebridge-discuss] Turing - Please put your projects on your shelf

[Gopiballava Flaherty]

I think we should add a consensus item to clarify the meaning of do-acracy. 

I thought it meant that a willingness to actually implement meant your idea was more likely to be accepted. A reminder that we don't have staff or taxation. It seems like some people think it means that they can implement anything if they're willing to do it. 

Thanks,
