=Working Group Protocols=
''(NOTE: For help creating correct wiki pages and adding events to the calendar, contact Jenny [jenny at sudomesh dot org] or Matt [mattsenate at gmail dot com])''

In order to make progress on many different aspects of this project, please use the following protocols. The intention is to support horizontal, consent-based, transparent, good-faith collaboration.

==Start a Working Group==
* Create Working Group wiki page and link to it here: http://wiki.omni-oakland.org/w/Working_Groups
** Articulate "mission" or purpose, goals, and any tasks you already know.
* Schedule regular meetings and add them to the Calendar: http://wiki.omni-oakland.org/w/Calendar
* Announce upcoming meetings on the omni-announce list at least 24 hours prior to meeting: omni-announce@lists.riseup.net

==Hold Working Group Meetings==
* Before the meeting begins, designate a facilitator and a scribe to take notes
* Conclude the meeting with '''Outcomes''' or '''Action Items''' and schedule next meeting
* Post meeting notes to the wiki on the Event page (making it discoverable through the calendar)
* Prepare report-back for weekly Omni Collective meeting.

==Join a Working Group==
* Check the [[Calendar]] and attend the next meeting of the working group.
* Directly contact the individual(s) bottom-lining the group.
* Show up to a meeting, or use the communication channel specified for that group to stay in touch.

==Make Progress in a Working Group==
* Set goals that aspire to deliver on the working group's "mission" or purpose.
* If necessary, outline tasks in order to reach each goal.
* Make progress on and seek to accomplish any tasks that contribute to the working group's goals.
* When a working group's goals require '''feedback''', '''formal approval''', or simply '''consent''' from the Omni Collective, create a proposal:
** Present this proposal to the Omni Collective delegates meeting to ensure each member-group can build consent in their respective community as necessary.
* When a working group has several divergent options or ideas and cannot come to resolution on them alone, then create proposals that represent these options and present these in some way to the whole collective:
** Present proposals at an Omni Collective meeting for feedback
** Ask for feedback on the omnilogistics@lists.riseup.net email list
** Ask for feedback from other working groups, member-groups, or individuals that are not involved with your working group.
** Rinse, repeat until you have garnered improvements to your proposal from the invaluable experiences and contributions of everyone involved with the omni collective, ultimately building consensus among the entire collective.

Internal Communications

2014-05-21T20:16:07Z

Elaine:

Omni uses a variety of platforms for our internal communications. This page has information about how you can access these platforms and how we use each of them to share information.

=='''Riseup Pad'''==
Omni Riseup pad [https://pad.riseup.net/p/omninom https://pad.riseup.net/p/omninom]

* Riseup pad is an etherpad, which is a live editing tool.
* This platform supports collaborative & simultaneous editing.
* This is useful for taking meeting notes, which you can then synthesize to post to a wiki page.

=='''Wiki'''==

Omni wiki [https://wiki.omni-oakland.org https://wiki.omni-oakland.org]
* Wiki is a collaborative knowledge platform, written in article form.
* Does not support simultaneous editing; if more than one user attempts to edit a section at once, conflicts may arise, which you will be asked to reconcile.
* To create a page you must [http://wiki.omni-oakland.org/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin&returnto=Main+Page&type=signup create an account].
* Remember to 'Save page' as Wiki does not autosave.

* ''To learn more about how to format your wiki page, go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Cheatsheet.''

=='''Mailing Lists'''==
* Omni logistics mailing list (high traffic): https://lists.riseup.net/www/info/omnilogistics
* Omni announcements mailing list (low traffic): https://lists.riseup.net/www/info/omni-announce
* Our high-traffic mailing list is meant for asynchronous discussion, and can usually be delivered either as individual emails or in digest form.
* Our low-traffic mailing list is meant for occasional, on-topic announcements (eg; announcing upcoming meetups and events)
* We love Riseup.net! They run on donations and don't log IP addresses.
* It's good practice to not start multiple threads a day or reply with one word responses!

=='''Analog Notes'''==

[[File:notebook.JPG|thumb|alt=a notebook|analog notes taken on methods of ''[http://wiki.omni-oakland.org/w/Internal_Communications Internal Communications]''.]]
Analog notes are an excellent option for recording and transmitting information.

* This platform is unparalleled in terms of security and user friendliness.

* Given physical proximity, analog notes support collaborative creation and simultaneous editing.

* Information is created and stored in real time; there is no need to "save". However, as analog notes rely on material artifacts, it is possible for data to "be lost".

* Analog notes offer limited sharing capabilities; consider combining your analog notes with one or more of the communication tools listed above in order to maintain collective accessibility.

==Learn More==
* Sudo Room hosts [https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Cryptoparty Cryptoparties] every third Sunday of the month at 2141 Broadway. Find out more by going to the [https://sudoroom.org/calendar Sudo Room Calendar]

* If you would like another communications platform added to this list, feel free to create a section or send a message to [[User:Elaine|Elaine]]. The [[Communications Working Group]] endeavors to promote communications inclusivity; if yr interested in facilitating/participating in a skill share to that end, pls let us know!
