Hello,
Here a little writeup what you have to do if you want to start a cause.
I made a checklist that I handed out during the initial champion meeting. Clarifications are with all the points.
If there is any more questions, feel free to ask and I will keep this post up to date.
We want to see a timeline on most of the points.
As in:
When will the area be usable and set up? What are the stages to get to a workable area? What dates will these stages be achieved? What date will the cleaning equipment be bought? When is the first class?
We want to see a solid plan with a reasonable time-frame. Latest deadline to have everything set up: 20th of February 2015
What is a solid plan:
Cleaning will be done weekly, rotating members, list on the wall for signing of on the cleaning jobs. Monthly classes will be held by person X on every last someday of the month. We will teach x,y and especially Z. Meetings will be held once a month. Maintenance of machinery is handled by person X. Broken tools are to be reported via pigeon to person Y.

-
Create a page on our wiki. All the above stated info publicly visible on the wiki. Meeting notes to be put onto the wiki.
I hope that clarified most questions.
