Also,if anyone in Sudo wants to help write a Letter of Support for the
independent national Nation of Makers nonprofit organization, Please try to
get a letter in by tomorrow, for maximum visibility (that is, to be
included in the big announcement that will be coming out of the White House
November 15).
The attached pdfs have more info about Nation of Makers and what they'd
like to see in the letters of support. I'll drop by the meeting-flavored
party this evening in case there are any questions.

7pm!
We need a quorum of 10 members to consent to the amended building purchase
proposal:
Since the last monthly sudo meeting, in which we consented
<https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Meeting_Notes_2016-10-12#Proposals> to a 50/50
split of ownership with the omni by accepting the $1m donation, amending
our name and bylaws to mirror that of the current Omni entity, and becoming
a fiscally-sponsored project of this reformed org, the Omni's Fundraising
Working Group has developed a proposal that eases the financial and
bureaucratic overhead of splitting all income, expenses, and
responsibilities. The delegate council of the Omni has consented to a
proposal that sudo room accept BOTH the $1m donation and the $1m loan,
fully adopt Omni's bylaws and Board of Directors, and steward full
ownership of the building moving forward.
*Proposal: Extending the proposal consented on at the October 12th
meeting, Sudo Room will also accept the $1m loan and steward full ownership
of 4799 Shattuck. To this end, Sudo Room authorizes Jennifer Ryan and
Matthew Senate, who are currently the authorized signatories of Sudo Room's
bank account, to make any financial transactions necessary to complete the
building purchase on behalf of the organization.*
If you cannot attend in-person, you can attend remotely on the pad.
Hope to see some of you tonight!
Cheers,
Jenny
