What is Zedkins
Zedkins is a group of Zedlings, players of the Zurvival server. They are voted into the group by the players and they decide on and raise community issues to Zedwick.
Every Zedling can join the discussion on the monthly meetings and raise topics of their own to be discussed, like propositions for projects or issues with plugins, or possible improvements to the server.
Pre-Agendas, where members excuse themselves if they cannot make it and every Zedling can raise topics before hand, as well as the Zedling Seconds (the meeting's protocol) are posted on the Wiki.
Zedkins meets at the Zedkins hall in region Zen, if not specified other wise.
