The decision making model can be decided at runtime by the current board. The board is supposed to be a group that is sync'ed so the decision making process should be a natural flow. The below is outlined as a backup in case a decision can not be made.

### Timeline:
week 0: the point is put on the agenda of the weekly meeting and is announced on the mailinglist. This needs to be at least 3 days in advance. ## Members group
week 1: the point is discussed in group and requires a 100% consensus to reach a group decision. The motivation for striving for consensus is because consensus comes with characterics that benefits the hackerspace: When a conflict/problem can not be resolved between individuals or when it impacts the group, a decision is required by the group. Below outlines the decision making model to be used by this group.

the point is discussed in group and requires a 100% consensus to reach a group decision. The motivation for striving for consensus is because consensus comes with characterics that benefits the hackerspace:

The required 100% consensus also means that a very small minority can block a decision. That is a desired feature but it comes with a responsibility. When a small minority or even an individual feels very strongly that a proposed decision is not correct they have the option to block the decision. This does not block the decision but buys him 1 week of time. During that week the minority has the task to convince fellow members of their viewpoint.
week 2: the point is discussed again but now a rough consensus of %80 is applied to reach a decision (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rough_consensus). If the small minority of last week was not able to convince enough fellow members the decision will be passed with rough consensus of %80. When their viewpoint make enough sense to fellow members, critical mass must be found to reach a new compromise. All members joining the discussion must strive to reach the rough consensus, to build the compromise. Not doing so is not being excellent.

When a small minority or even an individual feels very strongly that a proposed decision is not correct they have the option to block a decision. This does not stop a decision but gives the opposers 1 week of time. During that week the minority has the task to convince fellow members of their viewpoint.
week 3: when all has failed, or the problem is so controversial but a decision is required the below point system will be used to reach a decision.
