=Code of Conduct=
'''How do we communicate with each other when we are not in the same physical space?'''
Zulip

'''Break protocol'''
Whenever but break is great!
Flexibility with respect to taking breaks, normalising break culture.
make a sleep mode for chopchop, or a wall message every hour to initiate the break

'''How do we make sure everyone is heard?'''
using pads more
making notes for others

'''How to read together/apart? (As in, slow vs. fast readers)'''

'''Read out loud or alone?'''
It would be helpful to read in advance so we are able to discuss it 
Would be nice to share notes/annotations with each other then
Maybe dividing a text into smaller sections and focusing on these sections?

'''- do we keep or throw away the , after the inc'''
Quilt INC +1 +1+1+1+1
 
'''how do we update (about being) absentees'''
We do not have to say in advance if we are not there, and no need to share a reason
But check in with the team and see if there is anything to be done

'''How do we fill people in on what happened? - How do we document?'''
Summarising the TL;DR
also we are making a lot of pads, which is not helpfull. Riviera was making a padlist shell script; and can share this. From now on we will use one pad to rule them all https://pad.xpub.nl/p/editorial-team-3
but not today 

(going back to the discussion from earlier) '''how do we create a more inviting (ChopChop) space to work in?'''
In relation to chopchop; could it be that we add our code of conduct to chopchop? perhaps as oracle messages?

'''how do we know if we're on the same line of knowledge / confusion?'''
if we are all confused we are still on different lines of confusion
education = knowing how much you dont know (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETmpCWDKKlo)
the dunning kruger effect/ mount stupid
but text can be inaccessible

* what is our prefered communication are na when not physically attending the space, do we stick to the groupzulip? [SOLVED]
* What changes or additions can be made to the physical or virtual workspace to make it more inviting?
* How can we ensure the Code Of Conduct stays up to date/relevant
* what are the limits of team quilt inc, as in, what do we do together, what do we not, for how long are we together? What is the afterlife of our CoC?
*  how do we edit in a coherent way while "showing the seams"
* do we communicate by typing when an external being is in the same space? lol yez

* How to deal with FAILURE
* What do we do about unfinished activitis?

=introduction for a visitor of the Feminist Data Center=
Prompt:  As an editorial team, work on an introduction for a visitor of the Feminist Data Center
We wrote 3 entries by each writing some lines and then swapping papers, divided by the various project groups we are in.

==/var/shelf==
As you can see on your right, we've now reached "The Shelf". Here, we keep our feminist administration of what happens in our datacenter (stays in our datacenter). But watch out for the
emoji's. They offer insight into how the server is doing. We're taking the conventional customer experience survey and flipping it on it's head. This in order to reveal the range of emotions a server is capable of experiencing. 
To access FemAdmin, consider reading our code of conduct. Or open our shelve as FemAdmin. But you'll need to learn to gain access anyway.
We use the administration as a method of documenting. To trace back where the server came from, and offer insights to the servers that are in our care, into their context (neighbours). You are more then welcome to join one of our admin sessions, to see how we try to maintain the documentation. 
Of course, the political and radical implications of administrations should not be overlooked. Administrative processes are value-laden, often bureaucratic activities wth far reaching consequences/. By opening these facets of maintenance and allowing you to have a say in the running of the datacenter we aim TO DISRUPT!!!! the mundane banality of admin-work.
And to emphasize the inaccessibility, breaking open the source and to share what isn't given for granted in order to share our resources of knowledge of our bubble/or shelve. 

==/var/kitchen==
Hello and welcome to /var/kitchen here we are serving at a sustainable scale. Here you have the opportunity to interact with a server through a terminal interface, make digital food and sample our chickpea curry. Please don't hesitate to ask abut the Chef's special and the soup of the day. I hope you brought your own plates as we kind of ran out. But, if you're okay to wait for a bit, I'm sure we some will free up soon! We've never made curry before, but an earlier visitor made a proposal an were happy to try if this works for us. We strive not to let our services to fall to the sidelines or the sphere of the invisible. Feel free to fork your knowledge with your fellow visitors in order to grow a community after our shared dining experience. Ah, a question from the group: Yes, this dinner, is it a self-service buffet or an all inclusive dining experience?

==/var/door ==
How do you enter? Which port do you leave? And what do you bring and take? Will you be exchanging or at least be open for exchange? 
Can you enter? Do you have access and know the right address? Are you only here to take or do you have something to post? are your ports open, or can we expect an access denied from you?
Do you have a key? If so, what's the password? Do you want to see some random art? What will you do once you are in the space?  you're standing in at the precipice, on the threshold, this place might not be for you...
Get on line command in line. Browse up down left right along and on our terms. interact from multiple windows and try to localize what you see or pin point of your interest. 
By entering the front or back-end, you have license to enter / comply to our code of conduct, and our values. as a feminist data center, you'll be able to find the values written on the windows. 
Doorkeeping is a skillful craft it requires understanding who may and may not enter. It illustrates differences and offers us places to meet.

<!-- ==Universal computability==

==Algorithmic solidarity==
According to the text, is the answer to a hypothetical question existing in a world where all profits are collectively shared deciding where to administer funds. This includes using networks as a way of trying new methods of solidarity, global outsourcing is 'turned inside-out' making geographical distance less relevant if relevant at all.

==Outsourcing==
Looking for labour and infrastructure elsewhere, creating structures of monumental size to store data, that create their own micro-climate in other countries. Having an 'army of programmers' being viewed as a 'good' to sell, being exploited for thier skills that are used by companies or organizations to make more and more profits. What is produced is does not belong to the producer but instead to the employer.

==Distributed sovereignty==
A possible result of an economic model based in economic algorithms created from neutral networks, allowing for a distributed power and resources.
