We are not yet a membership organization.  I personally am responsible
for this space.  Until Noisebridge is a legal CA Nonprofit Corporation
and can protect me, it is not reasonable to let these other, legally
uninvolved persons, make that decision for me.

I'm not making this decision as a board member, but as a personally
liable individual, and I have tried to be as clear as possible about that.

Lots more to say about this that can wait until tonight.
