I am adding some Omni Commons groups to this.
Hopefully we can get more folks involved with Commons Working Group as
potential for physical opening (?) gets closer.
Or at least host virtual events for more financial support ?
Get new voices and perspectives in the mix.
I'll start attending soon especially in connection to North Oakland Mutual
Aid
Free Store aspects.

Heh heh. Yes indeed, I just mentioned it as an interesting example of
what’s coming along commercially.
Reptilicus sounds Scandilicious!
I see snippets on YouTube - will look for the whole film.

I think they’re especially going after owners of multiple-occupancy
buildings.
[One of the pitches - providing coverage for farm sensors- seems
unrealistic- vineyards etc. in Yolo County don’t have heaps of neighbors.]
Anyone want to put a few minutes into applying on behalf of Omni and/or
Sudo Mesh? Both orgs use Digital Ocean droplets :)
<snip>
You're always working on such humanitarian tech projects! I just found
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/pages/hollies-hub-for-good and
thought I'd link you to it; DigitalOcean is putting money (in the form of
server credits) toward a few kinds of such projects.
hello,
hope ur well. just wanted to give you all a heads up that there's a dept of
justice letter that's been in the sudo mesh mailbox at omni for a little
while. may be important
cheers

Hi Sudo Mesh,
This is a forwarded message from Omni Commons Communications Working Group
as we are working on an updated newsletter (Roberto taking the lead on this
work.)
Any updates for the newsletter since May 2020 last year ?

Hello Omni folks,
How are ya’ll doing? We hope everyone is doing ok.
It’s been a while since we’ve put out an Omni newsletter, almost a year has
gone by since our last one! A lot has happened between then and now, so it
would be nice to catch up. We’re thinking of putting out the next
newsletter by the end of March, so we want to invite Omni collectives and
Omni folks to share updates, thoughts, art, feelings, ideas with us, so we
can include them in the Omni Commoner.
There is a lot to talk about. We are still in the grips of a deadly
pandemic which has undeniably exacerbated the ills of capitalism and its
deadly effects on our community. But Omni folks and Omni Collectives have
organized and actively continued to support the community during this
crisis. We are stewarding a town fridge, the North Oakland Mutual Aid
Project is going strong, Acta Non Verba has adopted Phat Beets’ CSA, and
the rest of Omni collectives continue to do empowering work out in the
community. The working groups are meeting, some regularly and other
sometime, the finance/fundraising working group though has been at the
forefront doing the important work of keeping the Omni alive, critical
work, which we are all grateful for! There is much more going on for sure,
this is not even mentioning the different individual projects Omni folks
are working on!
It has been a rough year, but with the spirit of collectivity, the Omni
continues to be a hub for community collective action during this pandemic.
It is this we would like to share in this newsletter =].
So if you want to share anything with the Omni community please do! Art,
thoughts, visions, desires, anything!
We are asking from each collective to submit 1-4 paragraphs providing an
update of the work ya’ll have been doing. Below are some suggestions of
questions or topics you can touch on:
-
Updates from your collective. New visions and goals.
-
How your collective has been responding to the covid-19 pandemic.
-
What kind of world do ya’ll imagine post covid-19?
-
Anything you want to share….poetry, paintings, photographs, recipes,
anything.
-
Upcoming Events
Please send your content to the communications working group email at
comms(a)lists.omnicommons.org, by March 21st.
Like all the other working groups at the Omni, the communications working
group needs more participation. If you are interested in joining please
sign up to the communication working group email list at
https://omnicommons.org/lists/listinfo/comms.
Thank you.
With love and solidarity,
The Communications Working Group

Hi all, I'm not sure what's the best way to contact folks in Sudo Mesh
For legal reasons, every omni collective needs to have 1 member
formally represented on the Omni Commons executive board. Right now
Sudo Mesh appears to not be represented by anybody, because we haven't
updated our bylaws since you joined as a member collective. Could you
all figure out who you want on Omni's board? We are hoping to have a
formal meeting to update Omni's bylaws this Thursday. It would be
great if Sudo Mesh could send a delegate to this meeting!
Thursday March 4th 7-9pm https://meet.google.com/diw-hszw-msr or
515-428-1108 (PIN: 465 814 905)
