Hey everyone, I'm sorry I can't be at the meeting tonight to announce this in person, but a friend and I will be hosting a learning plan workshop next Tuesday. The workshop will offer space to reflect on what you want to learn and why you want to learn it, as well as provide time to set a clear intention for these next few months. The hosts are part of the Open Masters community<http://www.openmasters.org/about/>, a global network of learning cooperatives, providing structure, accountability and community for self-directed learners. An Open Masters group is getting started in San Francisco this spring, and we're hoping to use this workshop to start generating interest in an east-bay based learning cooperative. I know Sudoroom is filled with lifelong learners, working on incredible projects, and we hope this will be helpful to anyone who wants to add some intention and structure to their learning. Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions. Hope to see some of you there! Jacob

People's Open Network community outreach request for contacts!

by Jenny Ryan

Hi all! The People's Open Network <https://peoplesopen.net> is just beginning - an effort to create a community-owned wireless mesh network in the East Bay, providing free wi-fi and a resilient local network hosting local applications. It works by mounting low-cost routers on rooftops and outside of people's homes. The routers are running software that enables them to automatically connect to each other and share connectivity. For those who haven't heard, last week Sudo Mesh <https://sudomesh.org>announced our developer launch <https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/Blog#Developer_Launch>. We're testing the firmware with an initial batch of ~20 nodes run by folks with networking skills who can help us debug. If this is you, please get in touch! We have a mailing list <http://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/mesh> and an IRC channel <http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=peoplesopen.net>, and meet weekly at Sudo on Thursday evenings starting at 7:30pm. The point of this email, however, is to request folks to add to our community outreach spreadsheet<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ao_Q7DQvNFT-dC1mVjlaeTVSckhrZU…>. We're reaching out to non-profits, schools, churches, libraries, coops and other communities who may be interested in supporting the mesh - either through hosting a node, getting the word out, creating a partnership w/ People's Open Network, and/or working on local services and applications we can run on the network. The link to edit the spreadsheet is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ao_Q7DQvNFT-dC1mVjlaeTVSckhrZU… - please do a search for the name of the org you're adding before adding a new row. Thanks for any help you can provide in helping to develop relationships and expand the network :) Mesh the planet!

corporate inoculation

by Danny Spitzberg

My favorite bumper sticker might be "Abolish human rentals! Support worker cooperatives" BUT that doesn't mean I don't believe in corporate inoculation by recommending principled, justice-driven folks to consider jobs like this https://jobs.flowingdata.com/job/thumbtack-san-francisco-ca-full-time-data-… Also, relatedly, is http://nptech.io/ making an impact? I was initially excited to see it but had no sense of what organizing had been carried out to cultivate a critical mass of early adopters... curious, Danny
