[Noisebridge-discuss] Sleepers

[Al Sweigart]

Hey Greg, the consensus proposal seems really vague: I'm not sure what the
actual policy or guidelines it proposes are. Do you want to take that off
the consensus item list and instead have it as a discussion item at the
meeting? The consensus proposals are really for actionable and
clearly-worded policy, but it looks more like you'd like to have a
conversation on it to determine what the policy should be.
