Minutes

  • Tim opened meeting at 18:40
  • Thaiis mentioned venue is remarkably noisy.
    • Tim and Peter still to chat to Stu from Tas Quartermasters re: possible venue change
  • Tim emailed everyone on branch formation working group earlier in the week to catch up, no replies yet.
  • Promo flyer Craige did needs work as it refers to the state election earlier in the year (although Tim has large stock of pre-election flyers which are still OKish for general use).
  • Be good to have PPAU business card (i.e. card for the party, not for a person) for handing out. Tim mentioned this to Brendan on IRC who said he'd ask Jarrod to do a design.
  • Thomas Randle got figures from state cinema - circa $1-1.5K to screen something (well within the range of a small crowdfund or reasonable ticket price for ~100 punters).
  • Concern raised over social media policy -- no need for initials on twitter posts, makes transparency difficult WRT who's posting what, when.
  • Discussion around how best to handle/run social media, especially for visibility in Tasmania.
  • United We Stand event this coming Saturday at City Hall Hobart - we should attend.
  • There's a Tasmanian Fabian Society Relaunch Event ("How do we rebuild progressive politics in Tasmania?") next Wednesday (20th August). Tim will attempt to attend and make noise about PPAU. For details see:
  • Meeting closed 19:48.

Action Items

  • Possible screening of The Internet's Own Boy (Aaron Swartz documentary):
    • Tim to contact distribution rightsholder about possibility of local screening. Yes, there's a CC-BY-NC-SA version on archive.org which we could run with, but it seems best to attempt official contact, especially if general Australian distribution might happen anyway.
    • Tim to also check with State Cinema in case they're already planning on showing this movie some time soon.
  • Tim and Peter to chat to Tas Quatermasters re: meeting venue, probably next Thursday (21st), but sooner rather than later!
