[sudoroom] Sudoroom open!

Is Timon a member? If yes, maybe you could have given him a key and had him
lock up later? If not a member, then it was definitely within your rights
to ask him to leave.

Though, if there's one person left in the space, would have been much more
polite to talk to him directly instead of announcing to the air and then
turning off the lights. (My apologies if that's not what happened, but
that's what the email makes it sound like)

Also, living in the space is not prohibited by the compact, just "strongly
discouraged". If people want to actually prohibit it (which I highly
recommend, unless you do actually want part of sudoroom's function to be a
temporary living space), should update that wording.
