* '''One or two bullet points of high-level meeting summary.'''
Pick a moderator, and a note-taker. The note-taker should:
 
* write notes in this page, put them back up online when they're done,
* edit the frontpage so that it points to this weeks and next week's meeting notes in the meeting bit,
* edit the [[Current_Consensus_Items|Current Consensus Items]] if anything is decided to be up for consensus next week (stuff raised for consensus this week should be publicised for a final decision next week)
* edit the [[Consensus_Items_History|Consensus Items History]] if anything was consensed or failed to consense this week.
* tell treasurer@noisebridge.net and secretary@noisebridge.net if there are new members.
 
Moderator should:
* make sure everyone gets a chance to speak
* speak minimally themselves
* keep the meeting moving! you're in charge of summarising the consensus, and/or suggesting things that need to be done!
* get the membership binders and ensure they are returned to the shrine
