Hack The Room

In late May 2013, we find ourselves with a number of necessary room hacks improve ACCESS to & functioning of the space. On Sunday 5/25/13, starting at 11:45 and running all day long (until the wee hours of Memorial Day Monday with a potential midnight tofu bbq), we will be HACKING THE ROOM.

Here are the necessary hacks (by category):

Hardware Hacking:

• Getting a raspi attached to the sudo <=> (common space) door.
• Installing a circuit on both doors that will be able to send signals to their respective raspi's.
• Move shit and reorganize space.

Software Hacking:

• Getting the mouse buzzer working
• Creating an API for the door open/closed states
• Whipping up some code for the homepage to interface with the API

Administrative:

• Getting a comprehensive membership list
  • prerequisite: hack on different configurations of membership & access (how do we determine who gets personal access to the space, etc.)? ...See the [Articles_of_Association#Section_2.3_Benefits|"member benefits" section of the articles of association] for details.
  • (roadblock: Tommy needs access to the bank acct to get a list of dues paying members, no?)
  • additional thoughts: what else is needed to improve membership management?
• Improving finance management
  • Need to determine areas for improvement in the current finance tracking/management system and areas where responsibility can be shared, etc.
• Review clarifications required with landlords for space.
• Meeting format
• Outreach strategy
• Encouraging regular payment of dues from members
• Updating https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Door_Access
