This topic is intended to review the EU/UK market and to identify opportunities therein.

...civicrm.org is currently running Drupal 7 and will need to transition to a different platform. In addition, civicrm.org has historically been a mashup of information about CiviCRM, from features to extensions to partners to events, etc.
This agenda item is intended to address a transition of the site to a new CMS and to consider how the site itself should change to better serve the CiviCRM community.
Current site structure and review is being documented here: https://lab.civicrm.org/marketing/civicrm-website/wikis/site-structureCommunity Summit & Sprint 2019https://lab.civicrm.org/marketing/events/community-summit-2019/-/issues/1Core Team update2019-10-05T11:00:08Zjoshjosh@civicrm.orgCore Team updateInclude an update on financials, initiatives underway, operational goals, etc., as well as our view of the CiviCRM project.Include an update on financials, initiatives underway, operational goals, etc., as well as our view of the CiviCRM project.Community Summit & Sprint 2019joshjosh@civicrm.orgjoshjosh@civicrm.orghttps://lab.civicrm.org/marketing/events/community-summit-2019/-/issues/10Revise and ratify various guidelines and standards2019-10-07T08:47:44Zjoshjosh@civicrm.orgRevise and ratify various guidelines and standardsCiviCRM has various policies in place that attempt to foster a safe, inclusive, standard environment in which individuals may engage withe project.

Many of the policies in place are a mashup of policies from other projects, in place through recommendation of other organizations, or generated by the CiviCRM community.
There is often confusion around some of these, or general lack of knowledge of them, which has resulted in inconsistent application/enforcement. There also may be some that are missing and should be in place for the community.
- [Community Guidelines](https://civicrm.org/community-guidelines)
- [Event Guidelines](https://lab.civicrm.org/marketing/events/admin/wikis/event-guidelines)
- [Terms of use](https://civicrm.org/terms-of-use)
- [Code of Conduct](https://civicrm.org/code-of-conduct)
- [Trademark & branding](https://civicrm.org/trademark)
- [Privacy Policy](https://civicrm.org/privacy-policy)
Note also that, at times, these policies are flexed to benefit certain project stakeholders. Revision should account for how these can support/encourage project pariticipation.
This topic is intended to present an opporuntity to revise/ratify current policies and/or adopt new ones. Any revisions can be made in the following sprint, and greater promotion can be planned then as well.Community Summit & Sprint 2019https://lab.civicrm.org/marketing/events/community-summit-2019/-/issues/12Use of fund accounting within CiviCRM2019-10-28T20:36:02Zjoshjosh@civicrm.orgUse of fund accounting within CiviCRMCiviCRM is slowly adapting its accounting to be "group" based where funds coincide with each [operational group](https://civicrm.org/groups).

This presentation will demonstrate how it's being done and how it applies to the project, as well as will allow for discussion on how it should be improved.

In consensus-led decision-making, the goal is to get as many people on board with a decision as possible (the details vary - in some instances, everyone must agree, in others, it needs to be a high percentage, in others just a majority, but with no blocks). As a result, as a voting system, it introduces a few key ideas with which you can structure polls: you can abstain, you can change your vote, seek clarification, and offer the ability to 'block' - and discussion is threaded throughout the voting process.
Anyway, I noticed that Version 2.0 has [just come out](https://blog.loomio.org/2019/09/18/what-is-new-in-loomio-2.0-and-beta-release/?utm_campaign=whats-new-2.0-social&utm_term=social) and thought, given the wider question of bringing more community participation into CiviCRM decision-making, as well as the question of how people who can't/won't/shouldn't fly around the world to summits can ensure their voice is heard, is it something we should be exploring for CiviCRM's bigger questions? (such as CIVICRM vs civicrm vs Civicrm vs CiviCRM :)
It's FLOSS, and while there isn't LDAP yet so it could integrate seamlessly with Gitlab and Matter, there does seem to be [a fair amount of demand](https://www.loomio.org/d/AF8Xb0c6/ldap-authentication-way-past-due) for that. Also, FWIW and IMHO, a Loomio/CiviCRM bridge would be pretty app[ealing for any membership organisation trying to increase governance/participation.
