[sudo-discuss] Aaron Swartz Day Hackathon at the Omni? 8-9 Nov

November 8 is Aaron Swartz Day (Aaron's birthday) ( http://www.aaronswartzday.org) and folks are hosting hackathons in many cities. I knew Aaron when he was a kid helping with RSS and other protocols. A more recent friend of his, Lisa Rein, asked me if Sudo Room would host the Sunday part (9 Nov) of the San Francisco hackathon. So... 1. Are you interested in attending? In hosting/facilitating? 2. Availability/use of Sudo's and Omni commons spaces for hackathon purposes? On Sunday I see "Phat Beets is going to have an event to highlight their youth program! They will need 4 hours in the ballroom (yet to be set in stone). They are paying to rent the space." Is this a conflict? http://omnicommons.org/wiki/Event:2014/11/09_RENTAL_Phat_Beets 3. Is our network ready for a few dozen concurrent demanding users? All of the building or just some parts? 4. Ideas for food sponsors for the event? Phil Wolff P.S. Aaron Swartz was an American computer programmer, writer, political organizer and Internet Hacktivist. He died last year. If you use creative commons art, blogs and feeds, markdown, Reddit, or open data, a bit of Aaron lives on. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Swartz pwolff(a)gmail.com skype:evanwolf +1-510-343-5664 http://about.me/evanwolf bio <http://letmydatago.org/>http://twitter.com/evanwolf @ http://www.linkedin.com/in/philwolff cv http://LetMyDataGo.org blog http://www.facebook.com/philwolff face
