+ at least 5 for the calendar! A user-friendly, comprehensive, space scheduling calendar is key to our future functioning with as much common space as possible. It will not eliminate all space-use issues, but will significantly reduce them, and as Joe has pointed out, provide a framework for talking to each other when more than one activity wants to use the same space because we will know specifically who we need to work things out with. The tension happening right now will be significantly reduced. We should keep the support of the future calendar in mind as we make our decisions about space.

So, Yar and Jenny, thank you so much for working on this! Is there any way we non-tech people can help you? Any estimate of how long it will take?

Is Backspace interested in sole use of that room, or open to the current
proposal of it being a dedicated Kids Room as well?

You're thinking of a different room - we've been calling the former
TIL office the "Kids Room." Backspace is talking about the other room
across from that one, under the staircase, which has BAPS books in it
now.

Sorry about this. Jenny was right, I was wrong. Looks like Backspace
does want STORAGE2, the former TIL office. I'm not sure if it's ADA
accessible, haven't been in there since June. This makes it sort of
ambiguous since at Sudoroom meeting discussion we assumed it was
STORAGE1. Will need more time to make sure we are all still ok with
this. Sorry again.

Also, to address other concerns in this thread, IMO a good software
setup will solve a *lot* of the issues around space sharing and
scheduling. If we make it easy to schedule events and easy to see
what's scheduled, that could go a very long way. Jenny and I are still
working on that new calendar system and plan to put some good hacking
hours into it in the next few days.
