Computers upstairs status:
Get got some donated LCD flat displays and three old Dell Optiplex 320 (1GB
and 2GB RAM, I know RAM is low but they seem ok for Internet browsing and
light stuff).
Anyhow, here is how we are at the second floor computers area:
4 Machines running
2 Machine that need mouse + keyboard
So, if someone...could donate two USB mice and two USB keyboards that would
be super!
Oh yes... thanks Hassan fro helping carrying the stuff and Ed Biow for
installing Linux on these new (used) boxes.

Hi Patrik and Bill,
The pictures look to contain some good stuff, although i'm sure the
shelves are pretty useful and are not pictured. I am busy right now but
maybe someone else with sudoroom can drive a truck up there to get stuff
here are the pictures:

Subject: [omni-consensus] Global Women's Strike

Hi all,
I've been in communication with members of the Global Women's Strike for
the past several months regarding potential Omni membership.
*Please read and distribute among your collectives the potential member
proposal that they sent out!*
I have asked them to attend one of the delegates' meetings in August in
order to discuss / answer any questions but *PLEASE* let me know if you, or
any member of your collective, has a question, concern, etc, that I can
attempt to get answered before that time.
Since our next regular delegates' meeting is not until August 6th, this
should be plenty of time for people to review and respond to the proposal.
This is an incredible group of activists who have done a tremendous amount
of important work over the past 40 years. They are being evicted from the
space they've worked out of for many decades in SF and I would love it if
we were able to provide them with a home.

Subject: A man forced himself into my car last night
To: "discuss(a)lists.omnicommons.org" <discuss(a)lists.omnicommons.org>
...outside the Omni on Shattuck around 3am. He seemed nice and was asking
if I had anything to eat. I was rummaging in the backseat for foodstuffs
when he opened the door and got into the car with me, moving into my space.
Thankfully, Maxamillion was on his way out the door and pulled him out of
the car. The man proceeded to grab him by the hair and they were at a
standoff shouting until I got in the middle, broke them apart, and we
jumped into the car and drove off.
~6'4", wearing grey sweats, possibly a Jamaican accent, and tiny braids a
bit past shoulder-length.
Be careful out there, friends.

Friends,
Friday will be my last day in the Omni for an indefinite period of time
while I address a couple of personal issues that are bound up with my
increasingly problematic behavior, aggression, stress, anxiety,
interpersonal conflicts, and burnout.
I realize that I take my leave at a critical juncture, and intend to
continue remotely helping with the following:
* Building/Finance bookkeeping
* Ethnographic research of other commons-based projects
* Legal entity research and fundraising work
* Several of Omni's IndieGoGo perks
* Brainstorming on a new booking/calendar system
* Procuring necessary documents from David Keenan and organizing them at
htps://omnicommons.org/cloud
* Visioning (I believe my distance will enable a more coherent perspective
to contribute to these important conversations)
* Followup and resolution of all outstanding working group action items
(primarily for Commons, Building, Fundraising aka 'Until the Revolution',
and Finance).
* sudo mesh <https://sudomesh.org> documentation, finances, regular email
updates, organizing node mounts and public outreach (i realize i've been
dropping the ball on this but would like to shift my focus back to other
projects dear to my heart)
Things I've been responsible for that others will need to step up to help
with include:
* Paying sudo's rent / utilities / insurance bills,
* Finance updates at weekly sudo meetings,
* Acting as an Omni delegate for sudo room,
** Omni proposals and announcements at sudo room meetings,
* Regular Costco runs for general Omni supplies such as toilet paper, dish
soap, etc;
* Purchasing materials for building-related projects,
* Helping with many events renting space
<https://omnicommons.org/wiki/Booking_System> at the Omni,
* Maintaining the ever-buggy Omni calendar
<https://omnicommons.org/wiki/Calendar_System>,
* Co-facilitating monthly Open Circle meetups
<https://omnicommons.org/connect> with Antoinette, supporting families of
victims of police violence,
* Weekly front door shifts (Thursdays 2-6pm) and pestering Omninoms to
volunteer to be a front door greeter,
* Documenting working group meeting minutes on the wiki and general wiki
maintenance,
* Various communications and relationships I intend to hand off to the
appropriate people,
* Organizing work parties for Building projects,
* Creating a direct point of contact with neighbors around the Omni,
* Figurehead role of Secretary of the Board of the Omni Commons and Board
Member on behalf of sudo room.
Things I've already dropped the ball on:
* Proper onboarding of new sudoroom members
* Monthly Cryptoparties <https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Cryptoparty> (Third
Sundays in sudo)
* Facilitating the Welcoming working group
<https://omnicommons.org/wiki/Welcoming_Committee>
* Facilitating the Communications working group
<https://omnicommons.org/wiki/Communications_Working_Group>
I love you all very much. Please know that I'm not doing this out of spite
but rather out of love for this project, this community, and myself. I
apologize to anyone I've hurt over the course of this project and hope to
recontinue building and dreaming with you all once I've healed myself and
risen to a better place than where I've been.
I will be at the community meeting tomorrow evening to discuss the
Fundraising WG's proposals for moving forward to buy the building, and
Friday evening to help out with the Digital Detox event that will be
utilizing much of the building. I will be travelling in Europe and visiting
my family for the entirety of August. Please get in touch directly if you'd
like to talk about anything.
With love and solidarity forever,
Jenny
