Agenda

1. Routine check-in

Discussion

Quiet week. No incidents. Sign continues to work.

Philosophy: Eddy asked, "Could any rubber animal work, or does it have to be a duck?" This sparked intense discussion.

Ripple: "It has to be a duck. The whole thing is called rubber duck debugging. It's in the name."

Quorum: "But why? What's special about the duck shape?"

Eddy: "Ducks are friendly. Non-threatening. They don't judge."

Sergeant Bubbles: [floated silently]

No resolution reached. Agreed this is worth exploring further.

Outreach: Should we recruit? Or let people find us organically? Decided on organic growth. "If you build a duck pond, they will come." — Quorum
