Hey all,

In do-ocratic fashion, please accept this Invitatation and Call for
Participation in the first BACH Unconference, held at sudo room's new
location, The Omni!
Sudo Room and Omni folks are happy to host this event, and I am personally
very excited to give this a first shot and improve BACH happenings moving
forward, all feedback welcome at all times!
Event Details:
Oct 11-12 (Sat & Sun)
@ The Omni Oakland Collective
4799 Shattuck Ave
Oakland, CA 94610
Register now: http://2014.ba.chgrp.org/
Create the schedule: http://piratepad.net/bach2014
Almost NOTHING is scheduled on the agenda, and most of the activity will be
specified by YOU asap, or on the day we all arrive together! There is no
need to worry, I'm sure sitting down in a room with hackers from all over
the bay will be productive in and of itself. On the other hand, if you want
to showcase projects, host certain kinds of longer-form sessions, or
otherwise contribute to the program, please make it known and prepare!
Finally, feel free to use this thread to discuss more details and hash out
this unconference and more BACH happenings!

Show up and learn about Sudo Room! Make friends. Have fun.
I'll be hosting. We encourage other collectives to host similar events for
the community (and each other) to learn about us.
Join LocalWiki and Code for San Francisco for a day of sharing knowledge on
government services! From bike lanes to healthcare, you may be surprised
what resources our local government helps to provide. You may even surprise
all of us with what you know!
We'll be adding our knowledge to the San Francisco LocalWiki (
http://localwiki.net/sf), a collaborative community website where people
share all kinds of information about the city of San Francisco. Bring a
laptop if you have one, but we'll also have plenty to work on together.
*This is a free event! Childcare and lunch (vegan & gluten-free available)
will be provided.* We'll have expert LocalWikians on hand to help
participants.
*RSVP: *http://cityknowledgeshare.splashthat.com/
*DATE:* Saturday, August 23rd
*TIME: *10:00am - 5:00pm
*LOCATION:* Code for America, 155 9th St, San Francisco (directions
