A Sudo Board nominee received an anonymous threatening message yesterday.
This kind of thing is totally unacceptable and will not be tolerated. It is harassment that is pathetic and cowardly. It is also in clear violation of our safe space policy and subject to the consequences in the relevant parts of the dispute resolution process in our by-laws.
There is enough identifying information to figure out where it came from - the phone number was 650-272-1589. If anyone has information on who is associated with that number, please let me know off-list.
This kind of behavior is not welcome in any Sudo space, whether physical or virtual.
I will also add my intense personal frustration at people like you.
Stop giving anonymity a bad name.

Hey all,
I made a deposit today from the donation bin with $260 dollars, bringing
our bank account total to ~$1020.
Our invoice from the landlords is $1,661.50
We need to raise ~$650 to pay rent PLUS another $500 to maintain our bank
account minimum and not be charged for being below the minimum.
*How can we raise up to $1,150 by say, Monday?*
Some ideas I'm throwing out there and discussing with folks in the space at
the moment:
- Ask folks to pay their dues! Encourage your friends.
- Throw a fund-raiser this Saturday (take donations, give beverages,
performances)
- Reach out to different groups that use the space.

For those who have not been following the Airbnb legal troubles, this story has been called "Airbnb vs. New York City: The Defining Fight of the Sharing Economy" (http://skift.com/2013/10/13/airbnb-vs-new-york-city-the-defining-fight-of-t…; w/ links). I would rather call this version of peer production - collaborative consumption, but do think that the way this goes will be a key turning point. It's not just the hospitality political lobbies that are the problem, it's also the landlords' lobby.

> I'm writing to ask you to help save Airbnb in New York.

> As a guest who has stayed with a Host, you know how unique and local an experience that is. And you also know the majority of our hosts are just regular people making ends meet by renting out their own homes.

> Now, that experience is under threat.

> The New York Attorney General has subpoenaed the records of almost all of our New York hosts. We are fighting the subpoena with all we've got, but poorly written laws make for even worse enforcement. Unless you help to stop it once and for all, the laws may never get better and the threat to our New York community will continue.

> A petition to change New York law already has over 88,000 signatures, and an Airbnb host, Mishelle, has pledged to personally deliver it to the New York Senate. Our new goal is 100,000 signatures. We hope as many people as possible will encourage New York to change the law.

Hi,
Who's the current guru on running the 3D printer? Is it possible to get
together and learn how to work it? Are there any 3D printing events or
classes planned?
