[Spacecadets] Meeting tonight!

[John Benedetto]

Just a reminder: Darrel has called for a meeting of the SpaceCadets
tonight.  It will be a planning suggestions, and hopefully net some
suggested plans of actions to send to the Board of Directors.  We will be
meeting tonight @ 6:00 p.m.

If you don't want to deal with details, you can stop right here, see you
tonight.   - JT

In addition to a host of people that expressed interest in renting space,
or a bench, or whatever, I have seen or heard some of these suggestions:
- Gonner wants it empty so he can build a space tortilla (I am not taking
this proposal seriously; if he wanted to do this, perhaps he should have
rented it himself - however, we COULD consider ways to leave the bulk of
the space convertible to have an open space or moveable tables or benches,
that sort of thing)
- Darrel suggests renting the shelf units in the Annex now (in the
arrangement they are now), and the space between them can become private
meeting areas or house rentable assembly tables or benches
- Geoff suggested two large rows of rentable benches to occupy the main
"open space" of the Annex (At least, I -think- this was his suggestion)
- Relocate the Donation Zone here (not the rough & jumble mess there now,
but a smaller, -controlled- area for donations, perhaps right opposite of
the rollup door, outside of the office)
- Move the 3d Printing room to the large office
- Move the electronics lab to the large office
- Create a SilkScreen printing area on the east wall, near the sink
- Create a brewing area on or near the east well, near the sink

And for those of you that read this far, THANKS, and see you tonight!
