Team Conflict Management (and prevention) – general communication 2025

No worries :slight_smile:

Yes, let’s meet at Place de la Liberté at 7.30. I prefer the little bar on the corner… De Bruxelles et d’ailleurs.

See you all there!

Hello @reef-conflict,

It’s not that I enjoy being a pain in the ass, more that I am genuinely interested in what is going on (it’s in my role’s responsibility) and also that I would really like to uphold the commitment to our working method of documenting so that everybody has the chance of staying informed.

Long intro to ask my question: would you have minutes of your last meeting?

Thanks for pointing this out @Lee !
Fully agree that this is how we do things, and it was my responsibility to make the notes I took available. The case being that I have since lost them in the chaos of our new place, and I have been hoping ever since that they will magically reappear. I’ll have a proper hunt for them this morning, and post something regardless of the result… :slight_smile:

Hi team!

A warm welcome to @Sterre, who is a new Associate Member that would like to be involved with our contribution to the well-being of the community :slight_smile:

As soon as I am back in the second week of August, I will post a poll to have our second “reset” meeting soon after…

Thanks for the poll, Chris.
I can only do Wednesday night. We have an event that week from Thursday 4/9 - Tuesday 9/9…
I realise it is supposed to be my first meeting with you all. Sorry about that :confused:

Thanks for the info Sterre, and certainly no need to apologise. As you can see from the Nextcloud calendar, there’s a lot going on in the next 3-4 weeks, and it’s inevitable that not everyone can attend everything that they would like to :slight_smile:

I’m going to settle on one of those Saturday 6th options from the poll, but perhaps you and I could grab a coffee at some point afterwards, and I can bring you up to speed on what the team is up to. And a good chance just to connect, and talk about the Reef in general…

For @GaultierDWM, @Manoj and @Liesbet, the poll has spoken!
We’ll meet on Saturday 6 September in the afternoon. I’m going to say at 2.30pm, but that’s not set in stone if anyone wants to adjust in either direction.
If I remember correctly, there’s a general preference to meet in person for these particular team meetings, so perhaps at someone’s place, or a cafe/bar again, or in the park if the weather is good.
I’ll post an agenda here nearer the time…

Would love that, Chris. Thanks. We’ll be at the bbq so we we’ll be able to set a date then.

@GaultierDWM, @Liesbet and @Manoj - I’m going to suggest changing our meeting from the afternoon of 6 September to the morning of the same day. That was ok for all of you in the poll, but if anyone has since made plans for that morning, we can revert back to the afternoon and I’ll rearrange my other thing… :slight_smile:

Hi team!

There are now two working documents in our Nextcloud folder:
A mediation and training resource list: Login – Nextcloud
A potential manual working document: Login – Nextcloud

The latter is empty for the moment, but the former is full of useful info to follow up on, which we can discuss at the next meeting.

With regards to a date for that, the only date from the previous poll where we could have at at least half of us present is unfortunately no longer possible for me, so here’s is a new poll:

  • Tuesday 14 October (evening)
  • Saturday 18 October (morning)
  • Saturday 18 October (afternoon)
  • Tuesday 21 October (evening)
  • Tuesday 22 October (evening)
  • Sorry, none of those dates work for me

For most people, the deadline for whatever task you took up at the last meeting is due by the next one, so keep that in mind. I’ll get in touch with individuals once the date is set, to see how things are going. Big thanks to @GaultierDWM for doing the same for me… :slight_smile:

Thanks @ChrisM

You set Tuesday 22/10 as an option but that is a Wednesday. Just checking if you got the day or date mixed up :slight_smile:

Hi @reef-conflict management !

A bit late getting back to this poll, but in the meantime, it has spoken. The next meeting will in fact take place this Saturday afternoon, time and venue to be decided. Unfortunately @Sterre, you’ll miss out again… sorry about that :confused: My intention was to go with one of the dates that you could join this time, but as this is the second incarnation of the poll, I’m going to have to go with the numbers.

Could everyone let me know that you’re still able to make it…
