= Notes =

* Physical space access again. 
** Counter-Culture Labs (CCL) has interesting policy. Wear mask, 12 person max occupancy, and vaccination is required unless member goes through process to request unvaccinated access permission from the community
** We build the tools, we follow the lead of CCL on bio/medical ethics. (and we share space, so shared policy appropriate).

* Imma: talked about [https://apcollaborative.org/ Alameda Point Collaborative (APC)], the goals, current efforts, and some near term plans.
** Maker Farm 2.0. Open-house event, Sun, July 11.
** Resillence Hub. ?
** Working on acquiring rights to use an unused city dept building.
** Interest in collaborating with Noisebridge and SudoRoom.
*** Wants people who can teach youth and other recently housed folks, introduce them to electronics and makering.
*** Would like support in managing a tool library, though sudoroom doesn't have the money to provide that kind of support at this time.
*** Even before city building could be used, would like people who could work with charter schools in electronic introduction.
** Event some time (outside!) in August to allow close, in-person meeting of  SudoRoom, APC, and NoiseBridge communities.

* Fundraising. Noisebridge donation.
** Noisebridge would like more visibility into what donation money will be spent on.
*** Rent due to OmniCommons
** We should continue to use larges donations in whole or in part to offer matching donations from sudoroom/omnicommons community

* 5mof "5 minutes of fame" events
** Goal of cross-polination with noisebridge & APC
** NoiseBridge runs monthly events. Next 5mof this Friday, 07/02 at 6pm.
** SudoRoom could hold a join-event to start, in a month, or start our own. Will start assembling presenters, planning event. Still, ideally, outdoors. Perhaps at APC's Maker Farm.


* Emails, e.g. "is the meeting happening? I don't see an email" - If you have this thought, please send the reminder email to the list.




Still want: Need more social media outreach to reach new people (Dane can retweet Sudo Room social media through Omni Commons social media, double the awareness )

Look into other hackerspaces for how members make payments (Noisebridge, Chaos Computer Club, Double Union, Queerious, of course Hacker Dojo, ...etc.)
