[Noisebridge-discuss] Keeping associate members in their place

[Al Sweigart]

It's in the meeting notes:
https://noisebridge.net/wiki/Meeting_Notes_2013_12_17

Basically, Danny blocks because other people would block. Kevin blocks
because Noisebridge is a collaborative space and majority voting would undo
or impinge on that. I encourage them (or anyone else) to correct this
description, but it's what I came away from the meeting with. (And, of
course, if Danny and Kevin don't have time to reply to the list, that
doesn't mean they implicitly agree with my description.)

The "other people who would block" I can only take a guess at, and half of
them aren't even living in SF anymore. If I try to read people's minds
about this issue I'm going to fail; I'd rather have them chime in on the
mailing list or show up at a meeting if they have strong feelings about
this.
