Sudo-ers,
I mailed this list a couple weeks ago, but wanted to ask again. For the
next Oakland Nights Live, on the evening of November 9th, we are having a
series of booths to visit rather than a proper stage show. There will be a
variety artists, performers, and informers who will interact with a few
audience members at a time. We would love to have 1 or 2 people from the
Sudo room have a booth or do a demonstration if any of you are excited
about it.
I'd be happy to answer any questions, …
[View More]and I can give you more info to
anyone who is interested.
Thanks for any interest and thanks in general for sharing the space with us.
-Jeremy

I now have a page for the upcoming edit-a-thon. It will look very similar
to the page for the previous one (ok, I copied most of it).
Please add any edits that occur to you. I will run down and take a picture
of the South Branch since the one on the BPL page doesn't have rights info.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Berkeley/2013/Nov16
I hope some folks can make it. Note that this branch has been newly
renovated and includes the tool lending library, one of the few of its
kind. It also is next door to the Wat Mongkolratanaram Buddhist temple
(known for its Sunday brunch, and whose article needs citations).
I'll keep hacking away at the page over the next few days.

Hi sudoroom! A little while back I mentioned an interest in starting
classes that work towards data literacy, and wanted to give an update with
some ideas and plans, with the hope that people who are interested in
helping out or already doing similar things would come out of the woodwork.
First - I've heard about the morning math meetups through the list and
think it sounds great. My partner and I want to teach a hands-on curriculum
for "Math Literacy" to interested people of all educational …
[View More]backgrounds. It
would include everything from arithmetic to algebra to geometry,
trigonometry, and calculus. I'm hoping to even have a basic introduction to
plotting functions and working with arrays using web-based python terminals.
I want to find interested students and teachers, so if any of this appeals
to you, please let me know! I'm going to make a trip out to sudoroom
probably in two weeks, perhaps we could meet up and talk about it. I'll be
at Noisebridge this Tuesday as well.
Second - I'm going to restart machine learning classes at Noisebridge, and
am also looking for interested students and teachers. The ML wiki page,
along with a link to join the mailing list, is here:
https://www.noisebridge.net/Machine_Learning
See you soon,
mike

That having been said, I also would stand by Marc's actions. There should be some way to put a temporary suspension on an email address in the immediate term to stop a barrage of emails as a cooling off mechanism.
I think it's worth acknowledging how thankless a job running a listserv can be and thank Marc for doing it for as long as he has, with very little help, and while being admirably responsive. I've never done that job myself, and don't envy the position.

How Giovanni has tried to go about convincing everyone of that has clearly been counter-productive. His promise to put together a brief note about how to register before Nov. 14 and what it takes to do that - would be very useful information.

I would suggest we have more than one person with the power to ban people from our mailing list. And that those people be charged with doing do according to some predictable and ascertainable policy.

Could this proposed list be more broadly a community marketplace, that
allows people to offer their goods or services specifically to the
sub-section of Sudo folks opt-in interested?
I would imagine that such an exchange would also encourage barter of
goods and services within the community. In the long term, perhaps an
alternative commodity exchange could be supported.
Chris B - are you volunteering to manage the list?
