-= Town Hall Summary =-
1. Introductions - Welcome new members!
2. Community Reports
- ARTISTS: Corcosman reported on the Art scene in Chilbo, suggests visiting Chilbo resident Douglas Story’s installation “EVil Nemesis” at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Chi/118/36/22
- BUSINESS: Emru Rau is interested in seeing more commercial activity from residents in the sim. Discussed the use of the Farmers Market stalls, residents should include more things they’ve created for sale there, possibly opening another store on Chilbo Main Street for selling our things? Emru would like to display artistic items for sale by his garden in Mujigae.
- EDUCATION: Several classes have used the GUILD Academy in Chilbo for courses, and the Second Life Education Community Conference has used Chilbo as a temporary Headquarters leading up to the SL Community Convention in Tampa, FL this year.
- NONPROFITS: Liz wasn’t at the meeting, not sure how the SL HIV Center is doing, hope to get an update at the next meeting.
3. Donating Tier to Chilbo
- To donate tier to Chilbo, you must have a Premium account which you can sign up for at the main SL website http://secondlife.com. In your account information, choose the level of “tier” you wish to have and select that option on the website.
- Then come into Second Life and go to Edit - Groups - Chilbo Community Building Project - Info button - Land tab - and type in the amount of tier you wish to donate (it will show you your maximum amount).
- IMPORTANT!! If you ever wish to remove your tier contribution, please give us as much advance notice as possible so we can be sure to cover it if it is being used to support land we own. Thanks!
4. Chilbo Summer Fair
- Fleep has had some personal obligations come up preventing her from doing a good job organizing the Fair. She asked for someone(s?) to volunteer to take over the organization.
- A wiki site has been created to allow the community to collaboratively plan for the fair. The major building is mostly done down in Madhupak.
- The dates of the Fair were pushed back to August 16 - 31
5. Chilbo in Other Virtual Worlds?
- A place on the Chilbo website will be created to include links or pointers to Chilbo residents/places in other virtual worlds.
6. Communication on the Blog/Community Notices
- Chilbo residents can request an account on the blog and/or the ability to send Group Notices. All communications through these methods should be a) spell checked b) professional language (nothing inappropriate for work) and c) used to communicate things of interest to the community in moderation (an announcement and one reminder, for example). We want to avoid spamming the community or sending/writing communications that don’t reflect well on the community, so professionalism is encouraged.
7. Other/Announcements?
- Tommy Brouwer and Malburns Writer both are looking for images of Chilbo to include in some future community projects. If you have pictures, snapshots etc. of Chilbo or activities in Chilbo, please contact them to see how you can help out.
- Monarchy Republic discovered that Chilbo means “seven treasures” in Korean, we’d like to figure out how to work that theme into the community in some way. Any ideas?
8. Meeting Adjourned, all took the new automated Bike Tour that is sitting in front of the Chilbo Town Hall plaza. Send feedback about the ride to Fleep Tuque!
