[Noisebridge-discuss] call for action - Mr. Salvador/Salvator Dalajlama is back

[Carl Sue]

On the note of security hacker dojo has an rf I'd key and maglock system
could this be something we can get in place, I know there has been
controversy over it but perhaps now would be a good time to start talking
about it, what about keeping the current buzz in but add the maglock and
remove the key it would also give us a notice that the door is open and
needs to be shut. on that note im guessing leaving the door open even for
workshops is bad maybe we can get rid of the type that people use to hold
the door open?
