Their current site is this: https://oaklandmakerspace.wordpress.com/

IIRC, its biggest limitation is that wordpress.com doesn't let you
install random plugins. Sudoroom already is running one wordpress, it
would be mostly trivial to add another one. Action items as I see
them:

- acquire domain name (e.g. lolspace.org)
- acquire SSL cert (wordpress without SSL is dangerous)
- decide on a file permissions policy. do they need a separate shell
account or should it just share file permissions with sudoroom.org?
(This determines how wordpress updates will work, and either has
tradeoffs)
