Hey Michael,<br><br>That sounds great! If you can write something the tone and length of a short blog post, we'll post it on <a href="http://sudoroom.org">sudoroom.org</a> under "projects" to give folks ideas of the kinds of things we want to work on in the space. This is important as we build momentum toward our kickstarter campaign.<br>
<br>If anyone has other ideas, you want to collaborate and brain storm, or just don't think your project is ready for the blog, post it on our wiki here: <a href="http://hackerspaces.org/wiki/Sudo_room/projects">http://hackerspaces.org/wiki/Sudo_room/projects</a> and we can hash it out!<br>

To start the lab procedures could be outsourced (or maybe a local lab
will donate in kind services). <br>

<div style="color:#888888;margin-left:35px"><div class="im"><br><div>A pleasure to meet some of you last night.
For those not present, I was part of a crew trying to launch a
hackerspace in West Oakland over the summer. Plans fell through, but am
very excited to have a second opportunity to cocreate a space like this
in Oakland :)</div>
<div><br></div><div>Here is the old Redmine on which we were planning
and plotting, scheming and dreaming:</div><a href="http://neocreativist.azirepraps.com/" target="_blank">http://neocreativist.azirepraps.com/</a><div><br><div>The
image paths need to be fixed; they are basic floorplans and photos of
the building(s). The project got put on pause because the landlord was
going to put up 50K to get the sprinkler systems up to code but was
stymied by his ex-wife >_<<div>
<br></div><div>Plans included a RASH community computer lab, a wetlab, a
softlab (for sewing & clothesmaking), a fablab, a foodlab, upstairs
living spaces, a 'coffin hotel' next to the kitchen, vertical and
rooftop gardens (we have a very nice 3D model of this my friend Evan
made in SketchUp) and probably some things I am forgetting.</div>
