[sudo-discuss] bicycles and parts gathering in sudoroom

Sudo is in the middle of a massive cleanup/reboot and a lot of stuff that
has never (and will never) be used is being tossed out.  In this case, the
waste pile is a bit inevitable, but I agree generally that we need a better
plan for waste then the one we have now.  Unfortunately, itemizing this
particular pile for waste pickup is going to be nearly impossible and most
of the entries would need to fit into the “other” section of the form.  By
the time the reboot is over there will likely be a pile at least twice that
size.

Lets schedule a dump day to collectively haul this shite on a day when
other stuff is active (so we can get the most volunteers).  Who has a large
box truck to lend?
