I noticed that our Gittip is no longer connected to any bank account,
and the money is accumulating without being deposited. Did somebody
remove it? Why?

Hello All, my name is Daniel and this is my first email on this list.
I have shared with some folks at the Sudoroom the idea that perhaps we
should be getting ready to discuss the new layout, planning, and
execution of the LAN for our new location, the Omni.
My knowledge on LAN design and implementation is limited; but I am
excited of the idea of being part of this project with others more
experienced than myself.
Things that I can help with:
* Run and termination of cables, I have some experience with this.
* I have a set of wiring tools that we can use, that include:
Wiring Scissors
Cable tester
Multimeter
Telescopic poles
Drill, etc.
* Update the Cisco 2950 and Cisco 3550 Operating System; YES! We own
some of them that can be used.
* Basic switch configuration like creating VLANs, assigning VLANs to
switch ports, setting passwords, and things alike.
Anyways, I will be upgrading the OS to a 48 Port Switch tomorrow night
(Thursday May 1st) during or after the SudoMesh weekly meeting; so
please let me know if you are interested.
Thx!
Daniel

someone had set up (but never configured and implemented) an open source
analytics solution for sudoroom.org called piwik http://piwik.org/
do we have interest in running an analytics solution to have better
information to improve user experience for the site?
I'd consider setting it up, but don't have strong feelings at the moment.
I'm inclined to have less data about users, but having some data could be
valuable to provide better service.
what do folks think?
There are other open source web analytics options too:

Hey all,
I'm working on a series of upgrades for the website. Testing out a new
wordpress theme and event management / calendaring plugin on our
development site. Please take a look:
http://dev.sudoroom.org/
I plan to have www.sudoroom.org direct users to a landing page on this
site, with clear donation and calendar information, rather than directing
them to the wiki (as it does now).
I'll also need a few people to help migrate content, is anyone interested?
No coding skills required, just copying old event information into the new
event form so we can preserve the historical data.

Why can't we just work to put clear donation and calendar information
on the wiki?
You probably know that my preference has been to deprecate wordpress
and eventually move everything onto the wiki. I put a lot of work into
that project after first seeking input from everybody else involved. I
think the wiki format has potential to be more transparent and
hierarchical.

Okay, thanks so much for explaining at length. This decision does seem
reasonable. I suppose we'd never get rid of wordpress entirely since
we already have a rich blog history, so it just makes sense to use its
other strengths too.
I still am apprehensive about other things creeping out of the wiki
and onto the wordpress, and information being duplicated in both
places. I hope we can stay vigilant about that.
I apologize for what must come off as a series of terse negative
emails the past few days. I know this is a critical formative time for
Sudo and I hope to be more available to help in depth again sometime
soon.

You can try, I doubt it though. The internet seems to be full of
people who have tried and failed. Sorry for my mistake.

I appreciate all your hard work on this, but I would advocate for a
more security-conscious approach to this. My two concerns are:
1) We should not share a wordpress admin account passwords on a public
mailing list. Admin accounts are able to modify files on the server
and execute arbitrary code. This creates a very easy way for anybody
on the internet to pwn our entire web server and attack our users.
2) We should not serve the dev site on http or encourage users to
create accounts in cleartext. I can move it seamlessly to
https://sudoroom.org/dev/ with your consent.
I think we owe our users better than this, especially since we've
taught some of them to use Tor at our cryptoparties. They have trusted
us with email addresses and passwords in (among other things) the
blog, wiki, and mailman. This puts them and us at risk. It also
nullifies a lot of past time and effort that's gone into keeping our
server secure.
