Making progress with other HacDC members to cleanup, build new equipment, develop business opportunities. Still, our financial situation is a bit limiting, and we can do more.

Have heard about various successes contacting the Fire Station wireless accesspoint. Let's make it a top priority to deploy something like Ubiquity 24GHz backhaul units at both ends ASAP. Their 900mHz basestation and highly directional antennas may also be able to cut through the clutter at 150MBits. We could really use extra credit from our host.

HacDC's servers are still not available for regular use by members. Even without an excellent internet connection, this might attract more interest. We should label some machines, claim them, and compete to make them operational quickly.

Much of our equipment is functional, but not accessible. This includes printers, the plotter, scanners, and more. Clearing shelves and floor space will create opportunities to deploy these tools, giving members more opportunities to accomplish projects.
