Hi, thanks for the work. I totally agree, that the current state is chaotic an quite ineffective. I will be at the meetup today, and we can go through the things and check them physically.
I thing, the main problems are: 1. Storage, nothing should be left on the ground. => build/enlarge new shelves? reorganize things? 2. Too many things, many of them not working => You already started working on that ( I also stare significantly on number of crap^H^H^H^Hvintage computer lying everywhere:) 3. Some... discipline when working with tools. For example if something breaks, send e-mail, etc... I am forwarding this to main brmlab mailinglist, so all people who are interestid can join the discussion. n.
