Call to Action: SATURDAY 11am - 1pm IMPORTANT WORK PARTY BOOK PULL (free lunch!)

by Stephen Novotny

Dear everyone, [[The time is now to get up to fire-code. We're going to move the books out of the library, TOMORROW (Saturday) at 11am. Lunch will be included (multiple choices from the Munchery). In fact, you could get lunch and grab an extra lunch for dinner!]] There are several people who have been and continue to work hard on both the construction side and bureaucratic side of getting our beloved Commons up to code and permitted to we can be open to the public. But we must step up and help out with this process to honor the hard work folks are doing and to not jeopardize any of that work or our chances at becoming open to the public soon. In the next couple weeks an informal meeting will take place at the Omni with city permitting officials, where we'll have the opportunity to show them our space and hopefully get a better chance at getting our permits without having to raise huge amounts of money to make changes to our building. One of the first things *we absolutely must do* is remove the books and couches from the basement. Why? Because right now the city wants us to put a sprinkler system in the basement, which would cost us tens of thousands of dollars. What can we do? Give them no reason to believe the basement is a fire-hazard. This means we remove ALL of the books and other paper media, like magazines, as well as removing the couches (the pews can stay). *If anyone has extra boxes, please bring them along as we might need more than we have in the space.* On Saturday morning at 11am we'll convene at the Omni for a quick meeting to co-ordinate and then begin to box up all the books in the library and move them to a safer area. There's a ton of books and we need to deal with them somehow, so the more of us that are there the faster it will go! This should only take us two hours, so expect to be done by 1pm at which time we'll all eat lunch together and share camaraderie. Please write back with any questions or clarifications and pass this on to relevant individuals or lists. with love st

a lawyer has landed on our doorsteps

by april glaser

Hi all, I'm out sick w/the flu and juggling net neutrality for EFF, so am swamped + unwell. But I met an amazing lawyer who wants to help us! Does anyone have space and time this week to meet with him, let him know where we are in our process, and walk through any questions we have? This is indeed very exciting! Happy to put people in touch :] Best, April -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Sudo Room Date: Sun, 16 Nov 2014 21:30:12 +0000 From: To: April Glaser <april(a)eff.org> April, You may remember that we spoke very briefly at the Swartz memorial hackathon about Sudo Room's non-profit status and ongoing compliance woes. I am still interested in helping Sudo Room get its legal ducks in a row. Would you like to do a phone call or meet to talk about what needs doing? If you keep hours at EFF, we could certainly meet nearby. (I'm near 6^th and Mission, at least for the next few months.) Best, Kyle Kyle Mitchell Attorney at Law San Francisco

lighting in the ballroom?

by Marina Kukso

does anyone know what the stage and audience-area lighting situation is in the ballroom? (or if you don't know, could you point me to the right source of info?) also, still hoping to find out what the projector situation is in the ballroom and whether we can use the same projector that we used for BACH for the upcoming variety show. - marina
