I'm not an admin on the account, so I can't do this, but I think it's
worthwhile-

Apologies for the delay. I've had a think on the engagement letter, and
have decided to be ok with hashing it out in the open. It's very unusual to
do it that way, but I take it Sudo's not much into orthodoxy for its own
sake. Neither am I, frankly.
Can someone add me (@kemitchell) to the GitHub org? I'll put my proposal on
a dev branch in a /sudoroom repo and post a link to taxes@.

This is most excellent. Thank you, Kyle!
To upgrade the plan on Github, they require proof of 501c3 status or local
equivalent. Does that mean proof of our CA nonprofit status will suffice?
I am so excited at how many new members we've been getting! I heard
that tonight there were *fifteen* new member applicants!
Back in the fall, we wrote a script for new member applications:
https://sudoroom.org/wiki/New_Member_Script
I've been taking an extended break from Sudoroom organizing for self
care reasons, but I still care a lot about the community and culture
of our space. I think they are the most unique and important things
about Sudoroom. That is why we added questions like:
* What do you think about Sudoroom's values?
* What do you know about Sudoroom's history?
I notice that a couple months ago we edited the script to make these
questions *optional*, and from reading the meeting notes, it's not
clear that any of our new members is being asked these questions!
Do most people feel like these are less important? Am I the only one?
As has been seen by others, I saw this last night on the stage and this is
not ok. A large candle on a piece of marble in the center of the stage.
Whomever has been leaving candles burning, please stop. Does anyone know
who this is?
More importantly, if anyone sees a burning candle or other flame unattended
please put it out immediately?
This is a basic safety and fire issue.
FWIW I saw one other new-looking candle in a large glass jar being stored
in the upstairs stage-right room (audio production room) so whomever is
setting these candles alight seems to be storing them there.
Whomever wants to burn candles please speak up or talk to the commons group
Thank you!

Hi All,
I am a Sudoroom member working on putting up a website which will start a
major movement to accelerate health and life extension research (stem
cells, nanotechnology, The Human Genome Project, tissue engineering, etc.)
Mainstream scientists are saying aging and disease will be totally
conquered in about 200 years. Why should those of us now alive be left out?
We were on the moon in eight years; we had the atomic bomb in three years
from nothing but a theory. Scientific research can be speeded-up.
We also need to move quickly to evolve humanistically so we can handle the
coming changes. And, we need to make sure that poor people and poor
countries benefit equally, and at the same time, that the more affluent do.
These are the goals of the movement. We would very much appreciate a
volunteer who can help with putting up a website (or perhaps help in other
ways). If our project interests you, let me know by email.
Have a funny day.
Best,
Ira Brightman
Hi all,
We're having more than 40 people signed up for the Bioluminescence meetup
<http://www.meetup.com/Counter-Culture-Labs/events/219357264/>that I
scheduled at CCL for tomorrow evening. Just wanted to check if that's going
to be OK with the weekly Sudo meeting going on at the other end of the room
at the same time?
Do people feel we should try find another room for one of the two meetings,
or do you think we can handle having two biggish meetings going on
simultaneously? I want to make sure we can accommodate the needs for both
groups.
On our end, there'll be a bit of lecture with slides, a few short youtube
videos, some brainstorming, and a hands-on demo. I'm hoping we can keep the
noise level down during the brainstorming/socializing bits. We may wind up
doing some of the demos in the basement somewhere, because we need a dark
room and our storage room only fits a handful of people at a time...
Patrik

Hi there -
I read about the sudo project while checking for events on the Occupy web
site. This is extremely interesting for me, and I'd like to help out
somehow.
I'm not sure if I will be able to go to meetings because I have mobility
issues, and it might just be too difficult for me to get there.
I have skills in these areas:
powerpoint
photoshop/graphic design
user guides and other technical writing
wordpress content management
light programming (html, css, some javascript and php for front end web
maintenance purposes).
exposure via coursework and various employment to java, as400 command
languages, command line interaction with linux/apache server, mega
proprietary systems in banking and health care sectors.
I live in Berkeley near the Ashby Bart station if you are developing a node
in that area.
Just let me know what you'd like me to do.

Hello Sudoers!
See below for a link to Sudo Room's January 2015 rent invoice. Since so
many people are out of town for the holidays at the end of this month, we
thought it might be helpful to send rent invoices early. Please pay January
rent whenever you have a chance, and let the finances working group know if
you have any questions.
I will send an invoice for December's shared expenses as soon as we know
how much is owed by each collective.
Thanks and <3,
Sarah + Finances WG
Below please find a link to Invoice #91.
Amount due: $2000.00 USD
Due by: 2015-01-01
