Hi Sudoers:
I arrived for Hardware and SoftWEAR Hack Night / Fixit Clinic at 8PM
last week and there were a bunch of people waiting outside with repairs.
Can someone try to arrive early say, 7:30 or so to greet people and let
them into Sudoroom or the Media Lab and get them started on their projects?
Extra Credit: 1) confirm that the VOIP phone number 442-252-8386 is
working by dialing it 2) put out the sandwich sign on the sidewalk
Many thanks, -Peter

Hi Peter,
Regarding the folks waiting outside with repairs; that's a big problem if
the hope is to create Fix it Clinic and Sudo room as an accessible space of
reliability for the community! Thank you for bringing it up. It also would
likely lead to Sudo losing the next cycle of Alameda County StopWaste
Grants- this could definitely have long term impacts on Sudo being able to
stay in the space at Omni. I'd like to propose we all take turns at
someone in the space being the 'welcome committee'- it being their job for
one Tuesday night to put out the sandwich board with "Fix It Clinic" on it
and greet people and welcome them and help them find someone to assist them
with their project or at least show them around the space and assist them
in finding tools. I've been doing that in an informalized capacity but
maybe this needs to be formalized? I won't be available to do it tonight as
I'm volunteering with Bike East Bay, but I can do it next Tuesday. That
said, for it to be sustainable this would need to be a thing we all take
turns at, and it would also create a way of acknowledging the often
unrecognized soft skills and social labor that goes in to community
building. Jake, how would you feel putting it to a vote regarding having a
volunteer sign up list with everyone who's visiting the space at the $10
amount taking a turn in rotation? And I did want to follow up with you
regarding the proposed space plan- does the space map exist or are we
tabling that?

I am one of those $10 members (thank you!) and I can be there tonight 7:30
to let people in. (I'm cool with voting on this, but I'm also cool with
there just being a sign up list with occasional email prodding.)
good sudo,

Chrisantha thank you so much! I will try and get there as soon as I'm done
with Bike East Bay volunteering. If I take next week, could someone else
volunteer for the week after?
