The film exposes how seemingly free online resources like Facebook or
Google undermine our privacy, and how the NSA has co-opted Silicon Valley
to abuse the rights of Americans. The film is an excellent resource for
grassroots coalitions seeking materials to share at public education events.

Resistors' Operations Manual, 2nd Edition
To: sfchalkboard lists.riseup.net
Hi Chalkboard!
Strike Debt Bay Area would like to invite you to party with us as we
celebrate the release of our second debt resistance manual.
MARCH 23
3:30-6PM
The Alan Blueford Center For Justice <https://www.facebook.com/ABC4JUSTICE>
2434 Telegraph, Oakland, California 94612
The first version of the Debt Resistors' Operations Manual can be seen
here<http://strikedebt.org/The-Debt-Resistors-Operations-Manual.pdf>,
it reads:
*This operations manual--written by an anonymous collective of resistors,
defaulters and allies from Strike Debt and Occupy Wall Street--is for all
those being crushed under the weight of debt. It aims to provide specific
tactics for understanding and fighting against the debt system so that we
can all reclaim our lives and our communities. It contains practical
information, resources and insider tips for individuals dealing with the
dilemma of indebtedness in the United States today and also introduces
ideas for those who have made the decision to take collective action. *
To celebrate the next edition, a few of the authors will be among us, as
well as lifelong writers, activists, and heroes George Caffentzis and
Silvia Federici. We'll have some readings, but also local beer,
independent food vendors, music, live screen printing, and A DEBT FLAVORED
PINATA TO DESTROY.
Curious? See you there.
Yours,
Cassie <http://cassiethornton.com> + Strike Debt <http://strikedebt.org>

this onion article reminds me of the awesome men of SudoRoom. One of the
reasons I enjoy spending my time & donating my energy to promote SudoRoom
is because so many of the men at SudoRoom are pretty much like this weird
guy in the onion article.
A lot of the things I love are pretty sexist and hostile to women so it's
rad being able to go to SudoRoom and have one less thing to deal with!

Man Who Treats Women With Respect Asked What His Secret Is
Mar 10, 2014
MINNEAPOLIS--Commenting upon his seemingly effortless ability to interact
with all kinds of women, friends of local financial analyst Matt Brownlow,
a man who regularly treats members of the opposite sex with respect,
reportedly asked the 28-year-old Monday what his secret is. "You just seem
to have such a way with women--what's your trick?" friend Alex Stegman
inquired of the considerate man who sustains healthy, meaningful
relationships with women by consistently listening to them and not treating
them as utilitarian instruments for male gratification. "I don't know how
you do it. It seems like talking to women is so easy for you, and you're
always able to get them smiling and engaged in conversation with you. Man,
I wish I could do that." At press time, sources confirmed Brownlow could be
overheard working his magic on a female coworker by thoughtfully asking
about her weekend.

Tonight we had a special edition of the Sudoroom weekly meeting,
focused on upgrading to a new, bigger space, outreach to future
members, and fundraising to enable this. We decided on a SUDO REBOOT
with 3 components:
1) Cleanup Weekend March 22 & 23
This is a roll-up-your-sleeves event for major cleaning, gutting,
e-wasting & inventory.
2) Reboot Weekend one month from now, April 4th, 5th & 6th
This is a fun party with raffle, donations, and unconference for new &
old community members to talk more in-depth about what we want from
our future Sudo.
3) Hard work
This starts right now. We create lasting campaign materials, write a
lot of emails, and make a lot of phone calls. We are going to have
regular planning meetings on an aggressive schedule, TBA.
Our meeting notes are here: https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Meeting_Notes_2014-03-05
Further reboot planning will happen here: https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Reboot

*Hello,*
Please spread the word and join us tomorrow Wed 12th mapping the commons
for the #P2PDataJam, with live discussion on the P2PValue project streamed
throughout the day.
Kevin
*(ENGLISH, CATALAN, SPANISH)*
* Launch and Data Jam of the P2Pvalue Directory of Commons Based Peer
Production*
*Join us Wednesday March 12th for the launch and Data Jam (hackathon) of
the P2Pvalue Directory of Commons Based Peer Production*
*Commons Based Peer Production (CBPP)* means collaborative production and
sharing of resources among peers under commons settings. From the initial
cases, such as Wikipedia and FLOSS, recently there has been an expansion to
other areas of activity, such as citizen science, product design,
management of common spaces and open data sources.
The mission of the *Directory of Commons Based Peer Production *is mapping
the diffusion and hybridization of peer production by collecting and
typifying digital platforms or projects that are Commons Based Peer
Productions (CBPP).
The directory currently holds more than *300 cases* of CBPP such as
platforms for collective research, citizen journalism, peer to peer
financing, and hackerspaces. Projects that produce software, hardware,
texts, images, videos, music or sounds, collaborative research projects
that give access to the data, and produce resources for public use.
The directory serves as a valuable *tool for anyone* interested on CBPP
such as "commoners", "prosumers" or researchers. It also aims to give
visibility to the CBPP and support the networking among CBPP projects.
The directory itself is *based on collaborative production. *Join the
collaborative mapping of CBPP: Reuse and remix the data, insert new cases,
send your feedback on the directory design, etc. The data contributed to
the directory is published with an open license and accessible through our
API or for downloaded in various formats.
To celebrate the launch we will be hosting a P2Pvalue *Data Jam *12th March
2014, a collective effort to populate the directory and document as many
examples of CBPP as possible.
Additionally, on the day we will be having a live streamed program with
introduction to the P2Pvalue project, and with instruction on how to use
the directory and discussion around CBPP issues. Starting at 11:30 am (+1
GMT), Mayo Fuster Morell (IGOPnet.cc) will talk about the P2Pvalue research
on delimitation criteria of CBPP and the conditions that favor CBPP.
(12:34h) David Rozas (University of Surrey) will explain the directory from
a technical perspective. (13:45h) Antonio Tenorio (UCM) will present Kune,
a decentralized platform also resulting from the P2Pvalue project. (17h)
There will be presentations of cases such as Guifi.net (by Jaume Barcelo
and Pedro) and (18h) Goteo.org (by Maria G. Perulero). Finally (19h), there
will be a discussion group on "Analyzing value in CBPP experiences"
moderated by Mayo Fuster Morell and with interventions by Michel Bauwens
(P2PFoundation), Marco Berlinguer (IGOPnet.cc) and Marcos García (Medialab
Prado).

*Llançament i Data Jam (hackathon) del Directori de producció
col·laborativa entre iguals procomú - 12 març 2014*
La producció col·laborativa entre iguals procomú (CBPP) és una modalitat
emergent de producció i compartició de recursos entre iguals sota una
lògica procomú. A partir dels casos inicials, com ara Wikipedia i el
programari lliure, recentment ha hagut una expansió de la CBPP a altres
àrees d'activitat, com ara la ciència ciutadana, disseny de productes, la
gestió dels espais comuns i les fonts de dades obertes.
La missió del Directori de CBPP és el mapatge de la difusió i la hibridació
de la producció entre iguals mitjançant la recopilació i tipificant de
plataformes digitals o projectes.
El directori té actualment més de *300 casos *de CBPP com ara plataformes
per a la investigació col·lectiva, periodisme ciutadà, finançament P2P i
hackerspaces. Projectes que produeixen de forma col·laborativa i oberta
programari, maquinaria, textos, imatges, vídeos, o música, que donen accés
a les dades generades i produeixen recursos per a l'ús públic.
El directori serveix com una eina valuosa per a qualsevol persona
interessada en la CBPP , com ara "comuners", " prosumidors" o persones
investigadores. El directori així mateix vol ajudar a donar visibilitat a
la CBPP i donar suport al enxarxament entre projectes CBPP.
El directori en si es basa en producció col·laborativa. Uneix-te a la
cartografia col·laborativa de CBPP : Reutilitzant i remesclant les dades,
inserint nous casos, enviant els teus suggeriments sobre el disseny del
directori, unint-se com a organització al consorci promotor del directori,
etc La base de dades del directori es publica amb una llicència oberta i
les dades estan accessible a través d'API o descarregables en diversos
formats.
Per celebrar el llançament del directori el 12 de Març celebrarem un Data
Jam (hackathon), un esforç col·lectiu per poblar el directori amb el major
nombre de casos de CBPP possible. A més d'incorporar casos al directori,
durant el dia celebrarem un programa via streaming en directe. Iniciant a
les (11:30h) Mayo Fuster Morell (IGOPnet.cc) presentarà la investigació
P2Pvalue sobre els criteris de delimitació de la CBPP i les condicions que
l'afavoreixen . (12:34h) David Rozas (Universitat de Surrey) explicarà el
directori des d'una perspectiva tècnica. (13:45 h) Antonio Tenorio ( UCM )
presentarà Kune, una plataforma descentralitzada on també esta contribuint
el projecte P2Pvalue. (17h) Hi haurà presentacions de casos com Guifi.net
(per Jaume Barceló i Pedro) i (18h) Goteo.org (per Maria G. Perulero).
Finalment (19h), celebrarem un debat sobre el "dimensions de valor a les
experiències de CBPP" moderat per Mayo Fuster Morell i amb intervencions de
Michel Bauwens (P2PFoundation), Marco Berlinguer (IGOPnet.cc) i Marcos

Open Access: Rethinking Resource Access in the Food System
Monday, March 17, 2014, 3-5pm
In this panel, we explore the frontiers of “open access regimes” within the food system, using seeds and land as starting points from which to reassess resource ownership and property rights in agriculture. We also consider how open access regimes connect to food sovereignty – the rights of local people to define their own food systems. In recent years, open-source licensing has emerged as a new approach to protect the seed innovations of farmers and plant breeders and provide them with access to diversified germplasm. Like open-source software, open-source seeds would create a protected commons in which materials are freely available and widely exchanged, but are protected from appropriation by monopoly interests. Similarly, land has become the focus of redoubled efforts to facilitate open access to resources for food production – the Landless Workers Movement in Brazil is one prominent example. We ask: what are the ways in which managing access to agricultural resources – whether plant genes or land –can promote the common good, and how might these ways change in different cultural and political contexts?
A panel discussion moderated by David Winickoff, Associate Professor of Bioethics and Society in CNR, and Director of the Berkeley Program in Science and Technology Studies.
The panel will feature:
Jack Kloppenburg, Professor of Community and Environmental Sociology, University of Wisconsin-Madison; Co-Director of the Center for Integrated Agriculture Systems
Kloppenburg specializes in the social impacts of biotechnology and the global controversy over access to and control over genetic resources. He is interested in applying “open source” principles in the biosciences.
Wendy Wolford, Associate Professor of Sociology, Cornell University
Wolford focuses on issues within and between the political economy of development, agrarian studies, social mobilization, land reform, and political ecologies of conservation.

We're mostly talking about cleaning inside Sudoroom, so I don't know
if it has to be a conflict.
