I'm not able to promote and help host the 5MoF this coming week nor the
next one in June due to work/travel.
Unless someone else pops out of the woodwork, 5MoF is taking a hiatus.
What needs to be done:
* Promote the event in advance to ensure people show up
* Get people to sign up to present interesting things
* Show up at least two to three hours before the event and help set up the
audio/video/lighting
Robb has helped with the physical setup and teardown for the past two
events, …
[View More]especially audio and lighting, so perhaps he'd still be up for
helping?
I'm happy to explain everything involved in setting up and live-streaming.
If no-one takes this on then 5MoF will take a two month hiatus.

My work is tossing about 18 of these Radwin 2000 radios. Does the mesh
project want them? If so I could ask.

Hey Makers, Hackers, Developers and Educators of Sudo Room,
My name is Rick Abruzzo and I'm the co-producer of FIGMENT Oakland. As I understand it, there won't be a 5 minutes of fame this coming month so, I reaching out personally to Sudo room Discuss List to invite all of you to bring art, projects, demo and installations to our event at Mosswood Park on June 10th. FIGMENT is a free participatory arts and creative culture event in Oakland, CA providing an open forum for every type of artist, …
[View More]helps build a creative community, and fosters participatory and public art and creative culture of every sort. FIGMENT demonstrates what the arts can be: participatory, bursting with creativity and completely free, born from the desire to share imagination and invention between artists and the public. Our event is run by an all-volunteer staff and accepts no sponsorships and allows no vending, we are first and foremost here to serve the community and inspire attendees to think of art in the reach of everyone
I'm reaching out to Sudo Room because your organization is full of creative people who like to share and educate, and I believe FIGMENT would be a great place to inspire the next generation of creators.
To get a better idea of the nature of the projects and performances we host, please take a look at our photo galleries from 2014 and 2015. Also feel free to reach out and ask questions. If you have a project you think would be awesome to share go ahead and submit at our artist portal.
Thanks in advance for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Rick Abruzzo
Co-producer, FIGMENT Oakland

Hey sudoers,
Last week I met with the Safer DIY Spaces group, which the delegates
approved to provisionally fiscally sponsor under a grant-making model back
in December. At the Delegate's Meeting on Thursday, there was consensus to
provisionally approve the proposal, with full approval pending some time to
check in with the individual collectives.
They have been doing incredible work (providing consulting and walkthroughs
for dozens of spaces in danger as well as participating in shaping …
[View More]future
code compliance policies at the city-wide level) and have many more spaces
they're still working on. However, the grant-making model of fiscal
sponsorship has been rather unwieldy (they need to submit a grant request
to allocate their own funds, which Finance then signs off on, then Finance
has to write checks out to them, etc etc).
This proposal is to fully fiscally sponsor Safer DIY Spaces as a
project-based model, enabling them to write checks and make debit card
purchases from their own subaccount (which is where their funds have
already been going).
This was the proposal Laura sent to Consensus on Dec. 14th, which is being
modified to provide sponsorship under a project-based rather than
grant-based model with an adjusted admin fee of 5% (which is the same fee
we charge Real Vegan Cheese):
https://omnicommons.org/pipermail/consensus/2016-December/000984.html
The above-linked proposal contains more info about the project, its
mission, activities, origin story and organizing structure. They have been
meeting weekly at Omni since December.
Check signers on this account are to be Isaac Amala and Sinuba Dreem.
This sponsorship agreement would be applicable retroactively to April 1st,
2017 with an admin fee of 5% (same as Real Vegan Cheese).
If we could pass this at the next Delegate's Meeting on May 4th, that would
be wonderful and enable them to access their own funds in a more timely
fashion, as much of their work is time-sensitive (eg prepping spaces for
surprise inspections, life-safety improvements, etc)
If you have any further questions, the DIY group can be reached at:

i'm looking for a decent modern laptop with a screen resolution greater than
1400x900, which has a decent backlight and good keyboard and touchpad. Ideally
it's pretty cheap.
I can't figure out what brand to get because apparently both lenovo and dell
cant make a decent keyboard, and apples are generally way too expensive for me.
please consider replying off-list to avoid clogging peoples' inboxes!
thank you,

Need them to get the old HPLC working.
One is a weird assymetric 6-pin RJ11 derivative. Even knowing its name
would be useful.
For the RS232 cable we need normal DB9 at the other end.
For the IEEE 488 cable we need male on both ends.
