At the May 2018 AGM we agreed to hold some members' afternoons/nights where we would focus on the lab instead of personal projects.

• sessions will be on a regular published schedule so that everyone knows when they happen
• visitors allowed by invitation, to get involved and to get to know us
• personal guests allowed if they help out
• no personal projects, everyone is expected to be working to improve the lab

Optionally, at the start of the session we may have a meeting to make decisions that couldn't be reached on the mailing list:

• topics must be published in advance and discussed on the mailing list first
• members who can't attend the meeting may ask for their opinions to be passed along by proxy

Alternating between Thu 19:00 and Sat 15:00, three hours in length. Start slow with a session every two weeks, increase to weekly if we can sustain it.
