I just one of the organizers of Oakland Nights Live scheduled for Oct 11th
(evening)
http://wiki.omni-oakland.org/w/Event:2014/10/11_Oakland_Nights_Live whether
we can run our event later (until maybe 6pm or 7pm) in the ballroom during
their setup, then move downstairs to the basement if necessary.
I think this might be ideal for both time to prep, low overhead, and use of
the big beautiful ballroom!

I'd opt for an earlier date, if those dates work

the earlier weekends (4th & 5th or 11th & 12th) work for me.
Best,

Hey all,
Okay, so I have a tough question to ask!!!
Here's The Omni's calendar http://wiki.omni-oakland.org/w/Calendar
We *can *host the event on Oct 25-26, BUT we'll have to coordinate with a
concurrent event:
http://wiki.omni-oakland.org/w/Event:2014/10/24_Alette_in_Oakland They
expect 100-150 people mainly in the ballroom (
http://wiki.omni-oakland.org/w/File:Omni_full_floorplan_NS.svg).
I'd anticipate a BACH Unconference maybe getting close to the 100+ mark
only with a great turnout, but probably closer to ~50 with rolling
attendees (folks leaving and new folks arriving) for this first-time
event.
Either number of people would fit in the basement + sudo room's space
(see
same floorplan above).
Here are the *Alette in Oakland* (concurrent event) details:
Fri Oct 24: 7-10pm
Sat Oct 25: 10am-10pm
Sun Oct 26: 11am-3pm
We're not sure if there will be sound issues between the ballroom and
basement, but we can try to find out beforehand. I don't think it will be
too big of an issue if we're not using amplified sound.
Alternatively, we can pick an earlier date with more flexibility of
location and concurrency

Hey all,
This thread has been an on-going discussion for hackerspaces in the bay
area, and a topic of a few of the in-person BACH meetings.
At the sudo room meeting tonight we discussed an opportunity to revive
this thread and galvanize peer-to-peer coordination and collaboration
among
the wider bay area hackerspace community by hosting the first BACH
Unconference at sudo room and counter culture labs's new location: The
Omni
http://omni-oakland.org/
I mocked-up a site we can use for the event:
http://2014.ba.chgrp.org/
It's fork-able at https://github.com/chgrp/2014.ba
The date is not totally set of course, so holler if there's a good
reason to change it, but some time in October should be the goal!
Also, maybe there should be a Halloween theme?
