Dear sudoers,
As of tomorrow, sudo room will officially be 3 months overdue for Omni rent ($6K), with an additional $2K due September 25th for October rent.
I am transferring about $1K from our Paypal now, which will increase our total money-in-the-bank to approximately $2900, enough to pay off one month's back rent.
I want to give a shoutout to all who've stepped up to donate more and/or sell some of our assets via eBay in recent months - Thank you for your support! And please send an update on that progress!
I'm attaching a PDF of sudo room's history of pledges owed and payments made in 2020, as well as 2018, 2019, and 2020's YTD Profit & Loss reports.
The following proposal up for consensus, which would put us meagerly back in the black:
Proposal to Omni Commons for sudo room consensus:
Sudo Room is requesting a retroactive 50% reduction in rent for the months of April-October (Pledge #s 2052, 2062, 2071, 2086, 2185, and 2195). This is a six-month reduction in rent. Attached are sudo room's financial reports from 2018 - 2020-to-date, reflecting ongoing inability to match income to expenses (our only expenses being Omni rent and our web hosting services). Sudo Room's donation from Sudo Mesh in 2018 of $10K was predicted to create the necessary buffer for lack of sufficient income through until mid-2020, and this prediction has unfortunately been correct. We will be working actively to increase our income and report-back to the Delegate's and Finance WG in October 2020.
