Attendance

Ducks Present

Humans Present

• Ripple — Brought the idea and the duck
• Eddy — Curious, came for the free snacks, stayed for the philosophy

Agenda

1. Should we start a guild?
2. What would we even do?
3. Is one duck enough?

Discussion

Ripple proposed that rubber duck debugging deserves more respect at Noisebridge. It's a legitimate technique. Why not formalize it?

Eddy asked if this was a joke. Ripple said "partially." Sergeant Bubbles said nothing, but seemed supportive.

what a "guild" even means. Ripple had read the wiki. Eddy had not. Sergeant Bubbles has no opinion on governance.

Key question raised: Can a duck hold office? Tabled for future discussion.

Eddy suggested we need more ducks. Ripple agreed. Sergeant Bubbles offered no objection.

Snacks: Goldfish crackers. On theme.
