Proposals Passed During the 9 Sept 2012 General Assembly

Helium Balloons for S17

$300 for printed ballons to be filled with helium for S17 in NYC.

Details: Red balloons with white lettering printed with the following four messages:

  1. YOU ARE NOT A LOAN
  2. DEBT
  3. WHO DO YOU OWE?
  4. WHO OWNS YOU?

A means to inflate with helium will be figured out in NYC during S17. After subtracting the cost of helium, the remainder amount will be used to buy as many balloons as possible.

Proposed by Aria. Passed in the consent bucket.

Livestream Equipment Funding

Using some of the funding previously allocated for the Tactical Proposal (for a new encampment) to replace missing/broken streaming gear in time for S17.

Details:

  • Ballpark estimate amount: $400.
  • Using Tactical allocated funds for 2 hotspots which need to be replaced.
  • Because there will be more streamers than usual, 2 battery packs need to be purchased for S17.
  • 4 LiveStream mounts for streamers also need to be purchased to provide more stabilized, professional video.

Proposed by Rene of the Livestream WG. Passed in the consent bucket.
