decline the nomination while
seconding all others not yet confirmed and sending my good wishes to those
who have accepted.

Apparently, the average size of a non-profit board is 16 people, and the
median is 15.
I don't know anyone's handle, but I also wanted to nominate the following
people who have also shown the commitment that I think would make for a
good Sudo Board member:
Ryan Bethencourt
Anthony di Franco
Johanna Faust
Hol Gaskill
Leonid Kozukh
Anca Mosoiu
Naomi Most
Romy Snowyla

I don't think that coming to evening meetings
and weekend events should
be the ultimate metric of commitment to Sudo Room.
Not everyone can make it at those times because of work and family
obligations.
Agreed, thanks for picking up on that and giving an opening to describing
all the ways in which people regularly show their commitment to Sudo Room:
There's also building infrastructure in the space, creating/making awesome
things, giving tours, managing the landlord situation, managing the trash
(thanks david k!), leading classes/workshops/meetups, CLEANING and
BEAUTIFYING the space [the move to colorful late-night mood lighting the
other week was especially clutch].
BTW, our Wishlist has recently been updated in case folks want to
contribute tangible Things:

Sudo Room should not sacrifice its foundational values so as to be taken
seriously by traditional power structures. This is part and parcel of being
a vessel of social change. Noisebridge has an ad hoc and ever-changing
do-ocracy of leaders, as does Sudo. The inscription of a Board merely makes
static what is in actuality a dynamic aspect of the community, hence its
role (in the vein of honesty and radical transparency) is as merely an
on-paper minimum satisfactory requirement for bureaucratic processes. Come
to any meeting of Noisebridge or Sudo and it will be readily apparent who's
currently taking on leadership roles.
