Just to put in my 2c about Omni. I went to visit the space today and it is
amazing! I would love to see it fall in to the hands of collectives. My
sense from talking to people there is that there is a huge amount of
interest in the space, but apprehension about getting enonugh collectives
willing or able to take action in coming months to make it a reality.
As far as 2141 is concerned, personally I don't think 2141 will ever by the
right home for Sudo Room. The fights with the landlord, the "common" space
issues and general expense of the building makes it a poor long term space
for a collective. Again, just my opinion.

Hey all,
I have a proposal I'd like some feedback on and to discuss at the next
meeting at the public school this Thursday (7pm right?)
*Proposal: *
Out of the attendees of these meetings (including folks on the list
below), to find some number of interested collectives, individuals,
organizations, small businesses, etc to rent the $900-$950 / mo. office
adjacent to the Bay Area Public School (BAPS), sharing the common space
with BAPS and the Sudo Room at 2141 Broadway in Oakland. For instance, at
~18 equal parties, this room can be rented for $50 / mo. I am personally
interested in coordinating several folks to use part of the space as "sudo
coworking" with a few small desks for individual work. The intention of
this rental is multiple-fold:
* To no longer delay in solidifying collaboration between various
groups--i.e. for other folks to join BAPS and the Sudo Room by sharing
space now.
* To commit to investing (minimally) financially in a venture that
requires communication, collaboration, and sharing.
* To engage in a learning experience about our ability to co-operate and
grow.
* To provide an opportunity to groups that currently do not have a space
to galvanize their community.
* To be able to fruitfully engage in a comparison between various group
rental options including The Omni, 8th and Alice, and even 2141 Broadway.
