The cleaning is wonderful.. So much has been cleaned out! I donated a ton of cleaning supplies & will be more conscious about donating more in the future.. Especially things like toilet paper !
Thank you sudoroom for making the world a better place ...

The board of directors has reverted the changes to /bureaucracy until
further discussion with the greater Noisebridge can be had. Policies to add
required discussion periods are also in motion within the board to make
sure that incidents like this do not occur again. Given the gravity of this
decision, this is a one-time exception, not a precedent.
I believe Naomi put it best in a previous post to the list:
"This "active board" thing is in its infancy. We only just decided at the
ONE meeting we have had so far, what the rules of engagement and proper
process were.
Were we supposed to have gotten it right on the first try? No.
Could I have imagined that the insanity that transpired this first week
would ever take place? Hell no."
The decision to have the board take an active role I think is a pivotal one
in improving some the issues that Noisebridge has been facing increasingly
over the years. But neither I, nor the rest of the board, have any
intention of disempowering the membership, turning Noisebridge into a
dictatorship, or any of the language I have heard used over the last few
days. We want to be in service to the membership, not to rule over it.
My offer to have a productive dialogue with anyone who has feedback on this
process still stands.
Cheers,
Madelynn

The Privacy Working Group would like to use the screen to show a flick
on April 20th at about 6 PM if no one violently objects. I have a
projector and sound system. We figure that the cryptoparty typically
winds down at 5PM, so there shouldn't be a conflict. The movie is Terms
& Conditions May Apply, which I gather is about all those little on line
adhesion contracts we sign every day without bothering to read:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terms_and_Conditions_May_Apply
I'll schlep along a case or so for fermented entertainment and probably
some second-hand pizza or other such gut-pack, and endeavor to return
the sudoroom to its full upright and locked position afterwards. If I
don't see any protests, cavils or quibbles in the next day or three I'll
slap the event on the calendar.

Hi Matt & Eddan-
Attached please find the 4/2014 Statement. Included is a charge for a small
portion of the elevator repairs that we have had to pay for because of
excessive use--we are asking you and the Public School to each contribute a
small portion ($150....less than 10% of the $1879.06 bills) towards these
repairs, which were in addition to our monthly R&M bill that we get for the
elevator.
Hope to see you both soon!
Laurie
The cleaning is immense. Very enthused by sudoers. Lots more to do, but it has already been cathartic!
Join us tomorrow if you can lend a hand.
