Description

Created in 2020.

### 2023

- [x] ➕2023-10-05 Process for standups **✅2025-11-09 added to https://tao.rufuspollock.com/Standups#linger-topics**
- Linger topics: use of "linger topic" lingo to describe an item to discuss after main standup (keeps clear distinction of standup and main part)
- Recommend standup of last 24h and next 24h are on chat
- next 24h should have specifics of what will get completed (rather than "working on X" say "working on X and will complete this subtask")
- Using the kanban boards in the live standup to quickly highlight major items (what has got done, what is worked on next)

### Older

**2022-11-09**: Note a lot of this is covered in #190 and need to check what if anything remains to be done here.

Research

* [ ] Mine Plum Village's Joyfully Together and Chanting book for practices and rituals we can reference for Life Itself practices
* [ ] Berkshire Hathaway owner's manual https://www.berkshirehathaway.com/ownman.pdf. TODO: extract relevant contents to research ...

Patterns (for hubs)

* [ ] Five mindfulness trainings (from Plum Village)
* Bonus for storing previous versions (its got longer over time)
* [ ] Eating together 4x a week
* If possible dig out some evidence for this (i think there was some in that ecovillage book)
* [ ] Beginning anew

Hubs

* [ ] London Hub SCQH https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qKYYvzrYLt0cyuxk5rAAh0cv3p-mGD1rgXGJ4RVjRKU/edit#
* [ ] Resident agreements e.g.
* [x] London (guests) - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FSykmm00PQisqTFogefsTiCNscdMq5W6gZGhtv9Yy4w/edit
* [ ] London (residents) - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mYUyxInJDcTgYwm0giMJVSwBu1IEN717Dey6Xhw_Ses/edit
* [x] Berlin - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bwTH1-ncqCMEegozH5Wo7IbR75Yw3vhetTonFw7E21o/edit (based on London)

How we operate / who we are

* [ ] Governance doc from Sep 2018 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nX4uK5r4fg52nAG5FuxmIh7Om5PUSKWW2LHvEWutihE/edit
* There's also this deck https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Hf5lNs2C8wHfVjmdaWRxLLjDszVYmLFn_QSn4pNKHJU/edit (but i think this was def superseded by the doc). Though note there are some issue trees in there that seem useful ... :wink:
* [ ] "AET who we are" https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1-2qFW5Ha9JTEvAIcrkgN3nRHz03OxwqqFwCc5IsRFxo/edit **I think this is worth embedding in an intro page for now. We also need to update it.**
* [x] :exclamation: 8 core character traits / principles from "AET who we are" (called member personality there). This is important and probably goes on our "culture" page.
* [x] Coliving / cohousing model: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QoH-ckJF80SlO9M-wYqo84eZRVGBSxAtA8YBYq114dA/edit# (probably excerpt section about la cheraille for now or make it more generic) **✅2023-10-05 done a while ago - see https://lifeitself.org/blog/2018/08/24/co-living-at-art-earth-tech. Fixed markdown today. Still has la cheraille stuff ...**

* [ ] Go through plum village chanting book to search for practices / rituals we could use
