%%alias Aliased from [OrganisationalToDo] %% This is the __Task List__ for the New Zealand Personal Robotics Group (NZPRG). These are things that need doing, and we'll need volunteers. You can contact [Murray] if you think you can help, or have any ideas that might help. * __Apply for nonprofit status for NZPRG__: we need someone with the experience necessary to apply for non-profit status in New Zealand so the NZPRG can own things (rather than [Murray]), apply for grants, ask for discounts from vendors, and begin to figure out how to create a sustainable organisation * come up with a reasonable way to handle __membership__ (both local and remote/international) * we need someone to take responsibility for __scheduling meetings__ (where? when? how often?) * we'll need a legal statement that clarifies the i__ntellectual property__ implications of peoples' contributions to the wiki and the organisation (perhaps similar to the Creative Commons licenses?) * we'll need appropriate __media release form__ (for use of people's images in photos and/or videos) and a place to store copies of them * approach local and international businesses who may wish to sponsor the NZPRG, including __possible discounts__ on hardware or software purchases * create several __[prototype robots|RobotPrototypes]__ of varying sizes and costs, in mind of applying for a grant to buy the parts to build maybe ten "kits" as a starter stock for the group (or maybe just have everyone design and build their own from these recipes, i.e., does the NZPRG need to own any robots?) * compile a list of __people-with-skills__ and __people-with-tools__ * compile a list of __people willing to loan out tools__ or otherwise allow people to use expensive tools or machinery (maybe at meetings?), or help others with various things like cutting plastics or metal as necessary to build robots * compile a list of __theses__ and __robot proposals__ * accumulate a __stock of spare parts and tools__ (new) * create a __scrap box__ of extra components, materials, spare electronics, etc. where people can both donate and take from (similar to one of my neighbours' give-and-take sidewalk library) * we need people to take on __[Tasks]__ as listed on the wiki * we need __[Wiki Gardeners]__ as the wiki grows * create (and maintain) __a YouTube channel__ for NZPRG * link NZPRG into any existing social media channels as appropriate ...and anything else we can think of !
