[Noisebridge-discuss] So, how many people live at noisebridge now?

[Frantisek Apfelbeck]

Hi to Al!

Answers:

Sleepers - I know about one non member person who slept at Noisbridge yesterday 
who crashes around the place once per week or so. I do not think that there was 
another non member really sleeping there. I've not noticed any non member 
staying around on regular bases for t he nights with intention of sleeping 
there. There are several people who has places whre to sleep but they do work 
during the nights at Noisebridge quite often therefore they should be considered 
a very handy "disturbers" I think.

Bicycles - The black 60' bicycle is mine and it is now in a working condition. 
I'm considering donating it to Noisebridge which should be super cool because it 
was made completely free at Bike Kitchen! What do you think about that?

Hinge - It was removed with whole doors recently, I've got the hinges back so 
I'll reinstall them hopefully tonight. It was not me removing them.


There are several people working from Noisebridge mostly during their days, some 
during the nights. We do not have any regular non hacker sleepers in the place 
at least to my knowledge.

Talk to you soon,

Frantisek
