Re: [sudo-discuss] [omni-booking] [omni-consensus] [omni-building] IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ

@yar - i can't make a sudo mtg this wednesday, but would love to see sudo meetings happen again! additional to do items for sudo include: confirming one or two new, consistent delegates; fundraising (i'll send a financial report by end of the weekend, but suffice to say we are not currently bringing in enough to cover our expenses (roughly $2100/mo). @Autonomous - We do have that: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15dL8_clfSx8BlkeFRVQ5mZIbPDM6-DjEoub… - feel free to contribute by gathering more quotes! I'll reach out to Genesis Fire today for our annual fire extinguisher and exit light upgrades. Since much of our maintenance is DIY, it can be hard to demonstrate proof. Do folks think a timeline of work done since buying the building would suffice? If so I can work on that, too.
