Deciding NoVASEN Membership Criteria

We began our discussion in-person on 3/27/26 and are using this to extend our discussion. Decisions we need input on and ideally reasoning for or against a position are below: (1) Criteria to be a new member. (2) Criteria to determine voting vs. non-voting members. (3) Onboarding process for new members (interview? new member presentations?) Contradictions/Tradeoffs discussed in-person included: Related to (1) Balancing a welcoming atmosphere and desire to grow with member safety Related to (2) Our decision-making thus far has been very informal - do we keep it that way for now or do we start having voting portions of meetings or use Decidim as a means of collecting votes in-between meetings. Related to (3) Formal interview seems like a-lot, however, first-meeting introduction could be a decision point for whether we're comfortable with someone. Strive to be welcoming and non-judgemental as possible.
