nice - we are basically there! phil i think having a more longterm spot with better
access and a critical mass of humans would increase membership. we started with a cubby
at techliminal, then moved to a closet and fishbowl at 2135 broadway with intermittent use
of a conference table. now we are in a ~25x40' room with a large common area. there
has been some synergy with BAPS which i think is undeniable and has boosted membership and
activity for both organizations. combining more groups would bring us up on the radar of
even more people who would want to support our various causes. assuming other groups keep
up their end of the arrangement, we should be able to sustain our end of the
responsibilities. the more we offer, the more people become interested. if you build it,
they will come. that's alot said in the declarative but i believe it all to be true.

can you break down the costs for us? i followed
the link to the wiki but didn't
see it. I remember $2k/month as one number being thrown around for sudo
room's share. Right now we are right around $1.5k/mo on gittip which does
not cover our current operating expenses. that said i'm sure membership
would skyrocket at the omni. can you summarize the numbers for us here?
Sudo has pledged $2k/month. Keep in mind that unlike our current
lease, this amount covers all expenses from rent to utilities to
general maintenance, etc, which the Omni Collective will be
responsible for. Our total monthly expenses are already close to that:
$1,704.25 December
$1,721.58 January
$1,756.53 February
$1,710.50 March
$1,888.90 April
I think the extra expense will be a no-brainer, will pay for itself,
and will actually be a far better deal than what we're getting now for
our money. :)
