Six weeks off. The longest break since founding. But necessary.
DUCK MIGRATION PLAN:
Several members traveling to other hackerspaces over the break:
- Ripple → CCC (Hamburg): Taking Admiral Quackbar. Will attempt to facilitate "international debugging sessions."
- Quorum → CCC (Hamburg): Taking Null Pointer. "European software has bugs too."
- Flotsam → Visiting family + NYC Resistor: Taking Virginia Wool. "She's well-dressed enough for New York."
- Eddy → Staying local: Will check on Sergeant Bubbles, Duckminster Fuller, Duck Norris weekly.
- Lumen → Meditation retreat: No duck. "I need to be the duck for a while."
Ducks traveling with humans = "migration." This is now official terminology.
Philosophy Circle: November 9th topic — "What do the ducks experience?" (Lumen admits this is unanswerable but wants to explore it anyway.)
Quactions[edit]

- [x] Duck migration assignments
- [ ] Eddy to maintain the pond during break

Notes[edit]
Duration: 42 minutes.
It feels strange to plan for absence. But guilds need rest too. The ducks will migrate. The humans will scatter. And in January, we'll return.
Snacks: Pumpkin bread (Lumen). Seasonal and delicious.
