Current homepage: RobinTempleton == Board statement 2015 == I have been a member of HCoop since 2005 and currently serve as Secretary; I also run [[http://planet.hcoop.net/|Planet HCoop]] and have contributed to Domtool. My platform: 1. Purchase and install a new server as soon as possible so that we can responsibly expand our membership. 1. Expand membership through word-of-mouth recommendations and grassroots campaigns. 1. Recruit system administration volunteers so that we can provide new services, like microblogging and Media''''''Goblin. 1. Adopt a license policy to make our future software and documentation free (documentation is currently non-free). 1. Adopt an EnvironmentalPolicy requiring that we offset the pollution we generate. 1. Move our accounts to the National Cooperative Bank or a credit union. == 2011 Board Statement == I have been a member of HCoop since 2005; I wrote the Domtool Emacs mode, was involved in the 2009 migration project, started the hcoopstatus Identica group, and am [[http://hcoop.net/~bpt/hcoop/portal.html|redesigning the member portal]]. My platform: * Expand to 150–250 members during the next year and end the pledge system. * Move HCoop accounts to the National Cooperative Bank or a similar credit union. * Implement a strong environmental policy when we are financially able to; purchase carbon offsets to compensate for our use of nonrenewable energy. * Document development processes for our custom software. Recruit more volunteers for system administration tasks. Consider applying to be a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2012. * Last but not least, I will print HCoop T-shirts, finishing the project that NathanKennedy began in 2005. (: == 2010 Board Statement == I have been a member of HCoop since 2005; I wrote the Domtool Emacs mode, was involved in the 2009 migration project, started the hcoopstatus Identica group, and am redesigning the member portal. My platform: * Plan to expand to 150--250 members during the next year and then end the pledge system once we can do so without increasing dues significantly. * Move HCoop accounts to the National Cooperative Bank or a similar credit union. * Implement a strong environmental policy when we are financially able to; purchase carbon offsets to compensate for our use of nonrenewable energy. * Document development processes for our custom software and recruit a fourth admin. Also consider making it possible for admins to delegate certain tasks to trusted non-admins. * Last but not least, I will have HCoop T-shirts printed, finishing the project that NathanKennedy began in 2005.
