Free lockers available! They are the 1ft square lockers I've been looking
for; one set of 15 lockers, and one set of 20.
We just need to go pick them up near Sebastopol with a truck, and a few
people to help with the heavy lifting. Anyone (and a truck) available to
help out tomorrow?
I'd like to keep one for CCL, and put the other either in the basement or
in the storage room between the ballroom and the cafe, and put them up for
rent for member storage space.

So are we a go for tomorrow/Sat. 2:?Got a crew lined up?I trimmed the bushes for the truck to get in, braced the top step, found an anchor point and a small block and tackle, and have a ramp mostly put together.I think it will go pretty smoothly at this end, but might be a bit slow, it ain't gonna be no Slam Dunk.I would be fine with pushing it up to 1: if that helps.

Hi there-
I am interested in participating in some Sudo Room projects - particularly
Mesh, but perhaps others. My problem is I am mobility impaired in multiple
ways: a connective tissue disorder that causes artheriosclerosis,
arthritis, peripheral neuropathy, a tremor- I hope you get the picture that
though I don't use a wheelchair, even walking the few blocks from MacArthur
Bart is a trial for me. Also I'm extemely slow!
I was wondering if anyone drives from the Ashby Bart area of Berkeley and
might be willing to give me a ride? I tried volunteering via email but I
get the feeling "out of sight out of mind". Apart from my physical issues,
I'm quite capable and would like to find something interesting to do with
my skills.

We've got a lot of big items scheduled for next week's meeting, and it'd be
helpful to start talking about them now so that the meeting itself can be
as fruitful as possible without stretching on into midnight. One of the
bigger items is the "Stealing Shit Policy," which would outline an
appropriate response to theft in the space. It might be worth extending
this into something more like the "Confrontation Response Policy," so that
it could address other situations in which someone is threatening the space
or its membership, whether they're drunkenly destroying items or verbally
accosting people.
I spoke with several people about how we could deal with these situations
without calling the police or violating our safe space agreements
<https://omnicommons.org/wiki/Safe_space>. Most of us were at a loss, but
Ryan had some good initial suggestions. I've outlined them below as best I
recall:
- If someone is trying to leave the space with a stolen item, call all
hands on deck and block the entrances until they've relinquished it.
- If someone is harassing people or damaging the space, ask them to
leave. If they refuse to leave, then call all hands on deck and form a
human net around them. Without touching them, guide them out the door.
- Only if someone is physically violent do we respond with physical
force.
These responses would be absolute last resorts, and hopefully we would
never need to employ them. Still, even if we tighten down our entrance
policies, we should be ready to respond to people who are abusing the space
and its membership. This way, we'll be prepared to respond in a way that's
aligned with our values.
Are there other ideas about how to deal with these types of situations?
I've reached out to some radical spaces back in Austin to see how they
would respond. If there are other spaces in town that might have some
perspective or techniques, it'd be great to hear from them too.

Subject: [sfchalkboard] Looking for Wordpress Developer interested in
taking over several websites
To: sfchalkboard(a)lists.riseup.net
Hello Chalkboard,
I'm a web designer/Wordpress developer, and I'm seeking another such person
who is skilled, personable, and interested in taking on a handful of
already-built websites to perform periodic updates and/or maintenance as
needed, for some of the lovely clients I've maintained over the years.
I've gotten a new job and am no longer able to maintain and update these
sites, and would like to pass them along to a developer I have confidence
in.
I also get fairly regular requests for new jobs, large and small, and I'd
be keen to pass them along to the right person as well.
Most of the websites I regularly maintain are on Wordpress, besides a few
outliers. I'm seeking someone versed in Wordpress who also has a working
knowledge of HTML, CSS, and PHP.
Here are the websites, in order of frequency of updates:
shantiyogamontana.comcollege-prep.orgtheblueeyedgirl.comthecoldlineproject.comsfdancefilmfest.org
I've charged between $35-50/hr for these clients, but of course you could
charge whatever you see fit.
If interested, please contact me!

Hey all,
Here's the section for the sound system on our Ballroom documentation page:
https://omnicommons.org/wiki/Ballroom#Primary_Sound_System
*Do not use this primary sound system unless you are trained to do so. *Please
contact someone from this list to help you or to train you to use the sound
system:
Sean L
Liz R
Kwe
Kwic
Dragon
Marina K
Cere
David K
Sam T
Matt S
Here's the training guide for the primary sound system in the ballroom:
https://omnicommons.org/wiki/Sound_systems#Primary_Sound_System
It is very easy to damage and destroy speaker drivers. A specific order of
operations must be followed when turning the system on, and when turning
the system off.

I am supposed to be sailing on Saturday leaving around 10, but I like this and would like to help... I could be around in the early evening to help. You can text me 401 451 7150, if we get enough other people together. Its Friday pm right now, I could potentially help move it tonight... Is anybody else interested in this?

I hope everyone won't mind this unsolicited zinetic outburst. I simply
cannot contain myself.
?The second issue of my zine is now online at http://resistor.spaz.org!
<http://resistor.spaz.org>
Click the PDF directory. You will find reading & printing PDFs for both
issues of SF Resistor so far.
The second issue was actually finished just before Christmas as scheduled,
but it's taken me this long to figure out FTP for the first time & get the
files up without an internet-connectable laptop of my own.
If you are just reading the zine online, select the read.pdfs for each
issue.
SFR2 appears green because it's printed on green paper. I am heading north
in a couple months but plan to produce two more issues of SFR before
leaving. I'm already at work on the 3rd one. Each issue will be printed on
different color paper. Then I will collect the zine quadrilogy & dispense
copies to excellent people. That will happen in mid-March/early April.
Instructions for printing are on page 3 of SFR2, & will soon be up on the
site in a README file.
The site will be developed into a blog (ArcTangent (x) is the name) but is
just a seedling file tree a t m.
And for anyone who saw one of the crappy first-run print copies of SFR2,
the PDF file write snafu has been corrected (it turned out to be a simple
directory name error on my part) so I have print copies? that look good &
are fully legible now. I'm bringing some to the OMNI bookstore this
weekend. (My second visit to the new Sudospace.)
I would like to help develop the SR zine & teach people how to make zines,
do layout both digitally & by hand, etc.
Also I am helping my friend, a person known to many, start a combination
printshop+cafe in the east bay soon. The need is definitely there. I've
been doing my printing at the public library & the print stations there are
always packed to the max. I've started giving impromptu tutoring sessions
to puzzled library patrons, since I often seem to know more about this
stuff than the staff.

Hello Guys,
Do we have a thicker kapton tape for 3D printer printing bed? Something
like >5" to cover the entire print bed with one shot.
If we don't, would anyone be welling to pitch in with me for something like
this
<http://www.amazon.com/Mil-Kapton-Tape-Polyimide-yds/dp/B00CU3TB6O/ref=sr_1_…>?
I really don't need 36 yard of kapton tape in my life time.
Thanks

These last few weeks, we've been getting a lot of people for newbie night.
It's a great way to introduce folks to the space, though the way I've been
conducting the night, it's mostly just been an architectural tour. This is
the ballroom, this is the community printing press, this is where the
dumpstered croissants live. Unfortunately, this only prepares people to
navigate the space; not to be excellent sudoers. So I want to open this up
and ask, what else should newbie night cover?
Some important ones:
- our values
- our history
- our safe space agreements
Is there anything else we feel should be added?
