by Romy Ilano

Hey, are there any education heads at SudoRoom? has anyone at SudoRoom reached out to Oakland Tech? Don't they study electronics and mechanical stuff? Wouldn't hanging around the shop at SudoRoom be a cool way to augment the apprenticeship program and inject a little theroy and science magic? http://www.npr.org/2014/10/23/358238891/what-the-new-factory-worker-should-… ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Old Hardware Question

by Samir Faci

I have an old ZAReason laptop (ie. no Windows Lisc) that's been probably a bit too abused to sell off, but I wanted to know if anyone knew of any places in the area that might benefit from it? I was looking for something along the lines of http://www.freegeek.org/ though I don't think there's anything like that (which I'm aware of ) in the bay. Main reason I like freegeek is that it teaches others about computers (educating,teaching and learning) and no matter what shape the laptop/desktop is in it still serves a purpose. -- Thank you Samir Faci

Yes, I agree. We need not, and should not, submit our Articles of Association to the state. The 3500 refers to articles of incorporation. Most organizations don't have "articles of association". It's just a weird anarchist thing that we did over a year before we became any sort of legal entity. :) > If it hasn't happened already, we should also gain consensus on the bylaws > and articles [of incorporation] before submitting them. > I believe Yar said we never submitted the bylaws because we never gained > consensus.

Laziness was the issue. There were a number of Sudoroom meetings last year where consensus was clear about the direction we wanted to go, but it was just never implemented. If we can have something ready to read on Wednesday and mail on Thursday, that's icing on the cake, but I say just do what we need to do for now, including mailing it before Wednesday if need be. >From what I understand, we'll have the chance to change things again when we do 501c3 so it's just an interim document.

KiCAD circuitboard CAD teach / learn session at sudo!

by Jake

Do you want to learn how to make a circuitboard design with FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) at sudoroom with me? If you are interested in working on this, please let me know when you think is a good time to do it. Otherwise I will pick a time and make an announcement, and maybe nobody will see how it's done. i started making the circuitboard for the Hack-o-mat a few weeks ago. This circuitboard will allow a microcontroller such as a beaglebone black to control the FORTY different product vending motors in our Snackshop 2: https://github.com/sudoroom/hackomat i finished entering the schematic (with a bit of exciting vim hacking) and now it's time to render it into an actual physical circuitboard layout. We will need to lay out the card-edge connectors which plug into the vending machines' original wiring harness, and place all the components (mostly triacs) on the circuitboard, keeping the dimensions below 10cm for maximum price value. The finished design will be useful for any hackerspace wanting a computerized vending machine, or for controlling ANY 42 AC electrical loads from only 7 bits of GPIO (charlieplex style). Once the board is designed, we will send off to #hackvana in China to get them made, unless Oshpark is cheaper or more desirable. When they arrive we can start using our TWO vending machines to sell hacker candy to the omni! https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Hack-o-mat -jake

in case you missed it: zach houston banned from sudo & the omni

by Marina Kukso

hi all, this may be something that you already know about, but in case you missed it, on july 24th the omni delegates agreed to ban zach houston from the omni. an extended discussion from that meeting is here: https://omnicommons.org/wiki/Event:2014/07/24_Weekly_Delegates_Meeting zach will most not likely come to the omni any time soon, but if you see him there, please feel empowered to ask him to leave. - marina
