-==Plan==
+'''''Needs to be Updated'''''
-The plan is separated into the goals (sort of early mission for now), the constraints (more like things to keep in mind), and current approaches.
 ===Goals===
-* To create a creative community hacker space in the East Bay Area near San Francisco, CA, specifically in Oakland, CA.
+* To found a creative community hacker space in the East Bay, specifically in Oakland, CA.
-* Provide public interfacing and opportunities.
+* Establish a platform and space committed to:
-===Constraints===
+** Citizen science
-* BART train access is a crucial location constraint.
+** Democratic Culture
-* Areas of preferred location are: Temescal, Downtown, and Lake Merritt areas of Oakland, CA.
+** Access to Knowledge
-* There are some hackerspaces in the East Bay that focus a bit more on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maker_culture/ Maker Culture]. The constraint here may be to open up to other creative areas besides robotics, fabrication, and hardware. At the very least, focus on virtual and software creativity could be useful! Existent spaces:
+** Freedom to Connect
-** [[Ace Monster Toys]]
+** Non-technical (humanities, social science, the environment/ environmental justice, arts, crafts, all the squishy stuff!) and technical knowledge (including transitions and bridges between the two) --
-** [[The Crucible]]
+*** the useful arts & sciences?
-** [[Ponoko - San Francisco, United States of America]]
+*** information, data, knowledge, wisdom?
+*** memes, genes, bits, and atoms?
+*** Non-technical knowledge includes but is not limited to expertise in fields or disciplines that can be largely independent of technology. Also includes non-academic realms of knowledge.
+** Digital/Online Citizenship - Netizen Rights & Freedoms
+** Doing stuff to make our community openly accessible.
+**: ''...to do something more with digital and network technology''
+** Environmental sustainability
+** Education and mentorship
+** Community engagement
+** Public access
+* To become a center for active hacking projects but also a destination where speakers on the areas listed above may be hosted, and where folks may go for skill sharing classes
+For examples, check out our list of potential [[Sudo room/projects|projects]] or read about ones we've shared on [http://sudoroom.org/category/projects/ our website].
 ===Approaches===
-* Build a community and group of members, grow our ideas together, and open a space over the next 1-2 years.
+* Build a community and group of members, grow our ideas together, and [[Sudo room/open a space|open a space]] before the end of 2012.
 * Create online presence and communications infrastructure
-* Hold weekly or bi-weekly meeting, salon, or meetup.
+** Utilize our [http://sudoroom.org/ website and blog] more effectively!
