Bleu Oleander: nice turn out and participation
Agatha Macbeth: Evenin all
Bruce Mowbray: CHEERS to Xir and Darren, also, for their excellent work.
Zen Arado: Hi Aga
Bleu Oleander: hey Aggers
Aphrodite Macbain: Hiya aggers
Wol Euler: agreed
Eliza Madrigal: Xiri, many loved your design and it would be nice to find a way to encorporate that style into something in the future
Bruce Mowbray: Heya, aggers.
Xirana Oximoxi: ty Bruce :)
Eliza Madrigal: Hi Aggers :)
Aphrodite Macbain: It was a tough choice
Xirana Oximoxi: hi Aggers! :)
Eliza Madrigal: Many thanks to all designers..really impressive
Eliza Madrigal: and good process
Bleu Oleander: process was fun
Eliza Madrigal: so thanks for all the updates and reminders Bleu
Xirana Oximoxi: ok Eliza..when needed it is in my inventory :)
Bleu Oleander: thanks to all
Eliza Madrigal: thank you! wonderful
Eliza Madrigal: So congrats to us all ^.^
Wol Euler smiles.
Agatha Macbeth: Aren't we wonderful?
Xirana Oximoxi: hehe yes...congrats to all of us:)
Eliza Madrigal: The next item I think Bleu is more qualified to explain than me....
Bruce Mowbray: We ARE ARE ARE wqonderful!!
Bruce Mowbray: 
Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
Bleu Oleander: ♥ + ♥ + ♥ + ♥ + ♥
Bleu Oleander: ♥ + ♥ + ♥ + ♥ + ♥
Eliza Madrigal: some might have seen the emails regarding the land San's given us...
Bruce Mowbray: ♥♥♥
Agatha Macbeth: Oh I meant to look at that
Eliza Madrigal: Bleu would you like to give more details? (please ^^)
Bleu Oleander: perhaps after we can go see it?
Bleu Oleander: ok sure
Aphrodite Macbain: very generous
Eliza Madrigal: that's a good idea... maybe leave time at end of session?
Bleu Oleander: nice size space just over the border with Mieum
Aphrodite Macbain: my next door neighbour
Bleu Oleander: San has already started to design it
Bleu Oleander: yes next to Aph
Eliza Madrigal: Oh, I see... then there are general plans?
Bleu Oleander: with a small space connecting to Storm's space
Bleu Oleander: Builders plan at the moment is for a garden space
Bleu Oleander: we are meeting tomorrow to discuss
Bleu Oleander: we are still designing a guardian meeting space
Bleu Oleander: and playing with where to put that
Bleu Oleander: keep in mind that Mieum is a general (pg) sim
Bleu Oleander: I took some of San's land as well next to my plot
Agatha Macbeth: I wonder if they'll ever do anything with all that empty land in Mieum it looks so bare now
Aphrodite Macbain: keeps it in the family :-)
Eliza Madrigal: nice. I still feel strange having guardian meetings at regular pavilion, for no reason really, just habit, but it will be pleasant to revive the change of pace
Wol Euler nods.
Eliza Madrigal: good question Aggers
Bleu Oleander: so working on it now :)
Bleu Oleander: abandoned land has been that way for a while
Agatha Macbeth: Yes it has :(
Agatha Macbeth: Think most of it was the old Zendo place
Bleu Oleander: it was PaB a long time ago, yes?
Aphrodite Macbain: Better than high rises though.....
Agatha Macbeth: Not sure
Xirana Oximoxi: it is good to have abandoned land unless you have a neighbourg that loves gradening too :9
Bleu Oleander: yes :)
Agatha Macbeth: Mm
Eliza Madrigal: some. PaB had land in multiple places.... even a little woodland area
Xirana Oximoxi: gardening*
Eliza Madrigal: that's true Xiri :)
Bleu Oleander: I remember Storm showing us how to walk to the beach all on PaB sims
Xirana Oximoxi: :)
--BELL--
Aphrodite Macbain: that's where I'm lucky :-)
Wol Euler smiles.
Eliza Madrigal: mhm, that was fun
Eliza Madrigal: Are there any questions for the main group from builders?
Aphrodite Macbain: who is on the builders group now?
Bleu Oleander: just San and me
Aphrodite Macbain: ah
Eliza Madrigal: oh, that's a change?
Catrinamonblue Resident: the two best :)
Aphrodite Macbain: 3 left for various reasons
Bleu Oleander: been changing since it started
Eliza Madrigal: I suppose it takes a lot of time to discuss things and draw out ideas
Bleu Oleander: San has put in a lot of time and inventory
Aphrodite Macbain: as have you Bleu
Bleu Oleander: her gardens have taken a lot of work
Bleu Oleander: yes :)
Bleu Oleander: so I think its coming together nicely
Agatha Macbeth: San is a damn good designer/builder actually
Eliza Madrigal nods
Catrinamonblue Resident: :) yes she is
Bleu Oleander: any ideas from the group to consider?
Agatha Macbeth: I loved her old plot too
Bleu Oleander: yes
Wol Euler nods.
Eliza Madrigal: probably good to re-issue invitations to take part from time to time
Bleu Oleander: would anyone like to take part?
Eliza Madrigal: which brings us to our next item, if everyone is ready :)
Agatha Macbeth: Fire away Liz
Bleu Oleander: ready
Aphrodite Macbain listens
Eliza Madrigal: ~Working Group recruitment time~ !!
Bruce Mowbray also listens.
Agatha Macbeth: Already?
Agatha Macbeth wonders where 2015 went
Aphrodite Macbain: have you lost some members?
Bleu Oleander: renews every 6 mos
Eliza Madrigal: not at all
Aphrodite Macbain: ah good
Bleu Oleander: so next group is Oct 1 - ??
Aphrodite Macbain: March
Eliza Madrigal: the pattern is to invite folks to leave/enter at 6 month mark, so we're actually a few weeks late
Eliza Madrigal: yes beginning October
Agatha Macbeth: My my
Eliza Madrigal: WG is currently: Bleu, San, Stevenaia, Ewan, Wol and me
Eliza Madrigal: everyone has been working well together, although tricky to match up schedules
Eliza Madrigal: it is always good to circulate though
Eliza Madrigal: and the WG tries to accomodate anyone with interest
Eliza Madrigal: so won't put anyone on the spot today, but email will be coming soon, hoping some will attend next meeting
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Aphrodite Macbain: what's on the agenda?
Eliza Madrigal: that seems to change fast
Eliza Madrigal: somehow we always fill the hour and usually overspill
Eliza Madrigal: main things to know - 1) must be available for emails/approvals, 2) some if not most meetings
Eliza Madrigal: we manage to find balances somehow but good for WG to be made up of nice mix of voices always
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Eliza Madrigal: we're still discussing the logistics around inviting people to rehearse at the theater for instance, Aph
Eliza Madrigal: which is your item
Eliza Madrigal: not sure if you read minutes but the details are being discussed as the land develops
Eliza Madrigal: matter of prims and permissions
Aphrodite Macbain: kk If you like I can ask Bajoy to attend a Guardian meeting
Aphrodite Macbain: so you can meet her
Bleu Oleander: perhaps that area around the theatre can be subdivided and permissions set differently than the rest of the group land?
Eliza Madrigal: we'd *like* to find a way to have that openness
Aphrodite Macbain: nods
Eliza Madrigal: that's one way, but then concerns around prim amounts so far?
Bleu Oleander: prims are always a concern
Bleu Oleander: depends on final prim counts for the group land usage
Eliza Madrigal: one thing is that we don't want to have someone be a guardian who isn't involved in the group on the whole, so like to keep that boundary
Eliza Madrigal: so would be a kind of new category
Aphrodite Macbain: Perhaps we set a prim limit for the theatre
Bleu Oleander: that's why sub dividing could help
Aphrodite Macbain: nods
Eliza Madrigal: yes
Aphrodite Macbain: we can experiment and evaluate
Eliza Madrigal: and Bajoy is welcome to come to meeting sometime... we can set special agenda item
Zen Arado: don't we have a theatre alrady?
Bleu Oleander: can give others the ability to build there without being guardians and without giving them building rights on the rest of the land
Wol Euler: *must* I would say, not just can
Aphrodite Macbain: I will check with you when the next Guardian meeting is
Aphrodite Macbain: The set can use up some prims Zen
Xirana Oximoxi: yes, Zen... they talk about letting other people use it...which I find a good idea :)
Zen Arado: ah yes
Eliza Madrigal: yes Zen, but permissions aren't taking nonguardians into consideration
Eliza Madrigal: yes, others said it better :)
Eliza Madrigal: OK Aph, great
Eliza Madrigal: maybe not this coming WG meeting but the next would be a good time - dates to be announced
Aphrodite Macbain: then if it's OK with you, I will invite Bajoy to it
--BELL--
Aphrodite Macbain: sure- November?
Eliza Madrigal: Sounds good!
Bruce Mowbray: :)
Aphrodite Macbain: :-)
Eliza Madrigal: :))
Eliza Madrigal: I'm glad you're here for the next item Zen and Aggers, although would be nice for Ari to be here too.... it is about his piano concerts...
Agatha Macbeth: He hasn't mentioned it again
Eliza Madrigal: I hadn't realized Monday as most convenient being THAT Monday
Eliza Madrigal: so didn't attend, nor send notices, etc
Wol Euler: he is oinline, shall we inivite him to come here?
Eliza Madrigal: Sure!
Aphrodite Macbain: good idea
Agatha Macbeth: Could do
Xirana Oximoxi: I went to a wonderful concert of Ari at the theater not long ago :)
Eliza Madrigal: I only read about it in the logs :)
Aphrodite Macbain: He gave a great concert at my cafe in Sorrentina
Zen Arado: yes
Bleu Oleander: I didn't know when it was ... would have come
Eliza Madrigal: you guys were very swift and organized
Eliza Madrigal: but no notices... didn't expect so fast
Aphrodite Macbain: which theatre did he perform at?
Zen Arado: I think Ari prefers spontanoeua concerts
Zen Arado: he gives them at PP sometimes
Agatha Macbeth: I hear him at Yanvanna's place quite often
Wol Euler: he's dancing, but will answer questions via IM :)
Eliza Madrigal: ah..
Xirana Oximoxi: I think Rid IM me... I did not see any notice either
Agatha Macbeth: Bless him
Eliza Madrigal: Okay well spontaneous concerts are okay and nice but would be nicer if there were heads up
Eliza Madrigal: piano at PaB is a wonderful idea
Bleu Oleander: he has his own piano?
Agatha Macbeth: Yes
Bleu Oleander: ok good
Bruce Mowbray nods.
Agatha Macbeth: But needs a stream to be set up
Eliza Madrigal: Wol can you ask Ari if that's what he prefers... spontaneous concerts, or whether we can come to a kind of light structure so invites can be sent?
Bruce Mowbray remembers dancing with Ealn for the very first time - to Ari's piano music.
Eliza Madrigal: Zen, you set up the stream for him right?
Bruce Mowbray: Elan*
Zen Arado: yes
Aphrodite Macbain: It can be our first performance in the Theatre
Zen Arado: it's still set up
Zen Arado: no need to change unless someone else wants to play
Eliza Madrigal: Oh, doesn't have to be done each time?
Zen Arado: nope
Bruce Mowbray: Yes, Ari had a fine concert in our theater.
Eliza Madrigal: neat, didn't know that
Aphrodite Macbain: oh - I dodnt know...
Aphrodite Macbain: didnt
Aphrodite Macbain: sorry I missed it!
Eliza Madrigal: me too
Bleu Oleander: me too!
Bruce Mowbray: It was GREAT.
Aphrodite Macbain: he needs a better promoter
Bleu Oleander: of course!
Eliza Madrigal: Didn't want Ari to think there was no interest because there really was
Bruce Mowbray: ha ha.
Eliza Madrigal: yes
Eliza Madrigal: :)))
Zen Arado: Ari is a shy man...might not want too much fuss
Wol Euler: he says that pre.arranged is fine, but he does not wish a fixed schedule
Bruce Mowbray: (Ari is shy about promoting himself, actually.) -- snap.
Zen Arado: yes best way
Aphrodite Macbain: He dressed up and impersonated an 18th century pianist when he came to the cafe :-)
Eliza Madrigal: so if someone could work with him to promote him quietly and politely :)
Wol Euler: can we say perhaps that they can be spontaneous with N days warning?
Wol Euler: a week or two, he just said
Agatha Macbeth: That would probably work
Aphrodite Macbain: otherwise he wont get an audience
Eliza Madrigal: Oh, that would be fine...
Eliza Madrigal: even 3-4 days would be okay I think?
Catrinamonblue Resident: :) Would love to hear him
Eliza Madrigal: how do others feel? more/less?
Wol Euler: yes, that would be fine for him, spontaneous with a week of warning
Bruce Mowbray: I would love to attend another Ari concert.
Bleu Oleander: a week notice is good
Eliza Madrigal: OK! great
Zen Arado: fine
Eliza Madrigal: thanks
Xirana Oximoxi: yes...3-4-1 days is ok
Aphrodite Macbain: sure. we can just ask him when would work for him
Eliza Madrigal: and say thanks to Ari please Wol
Bleu Oleander: 3-4 days works too
Catrinamonblue Resident: nods
Eliza Madrigal: who will he give warning to? via notices?
Bruce Mowbray nods - TY to both Wol and Ari.
Aphrodite Macbain: Wol
Aphrodite Macbain: is the designated recipient of info
Wol Euler: [14:40] Wol Euler: okay we are agreed on spontaneous concerts at PaB (which may come to mean in our theatre), wiht a week roughly of notice, stream to be coordinated by Zen [14:41] Ari (arisia.vita): yes
Eliza Madrigal: that's today but prob not always?
Bruce Mowbray: I could send it out to the google group list -- if someone lets me know when Ari would be willing to appear.
Agatha Macbeth: The antlers are actually antennae
Bruce Mowbray: :()
Eliza Madrigal: Maybe Ari can tell Bruce?
Wol Euler: then Bruce could do it too
Bruce Mowbray: They ARE!!??
Aphrodite Macbain: Keep it simple
Eliza Madrigal laughs
Bruce Mowbray: Yes, that would be fine, also.
Wol Euler: somebody didn't read the manual!
Eliza Madrigal: thanks Bruce
Agatha Macbeth: It was in Chinese
Wol Euler hands you a PDF
Bruce Mowbray: :)
Aphrodite Macbain hears electrical humming
Eliza Madrigal: OK :)) I think that is the end of official agenda items... ::think think::::
Agatha Macbeth: Maybe a robot bee
Bruce Mowbray hears a buzzing in the lotus... could it be a listening device?
Eliza Madrigal looks at Bleu to tell me if I'm missing something ^.^
Bruce Mowbray: :)
Wol Euler makes strange hand gestures. "These are not the robot bees you are looking for."
Bleu Oleander: shall we go look at new land?
Agatha Macbeth: Bleuji is she missing something?
Bruce Mowbray: Yes, let's look at the new land.
Bleu Oleander: that's all I can think of
Agatha Macbeth: We could look at the new land
Eliza Madrigal: nice to visit land! great, thanks all!
Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
Bruce Mowbray: TY, everyone.
Bleu Oleander: ok let's go :)
