Objectives

With the upcoming of MassChallenge and the building's renovation, the lab has been turned into a mess. Therefore, we have to give it a good cleaning and update the wiki, refit some of the lab's setup and start apply some new good habits (commonly called rules). For this we expect of course everybody's support and help. It's always a good way to gain some well earned meritocracy respect.
Furthermore we receive confirmation of our material request from our benefactors and will have to organize the transport.
Both events are independent and can be organized at any time

Website Update

Ensure English to French translation for the projects are made (it seems it was a problem for some pages)

Final Note aka where the BBQ is announced

Cleaning is of course a tedious task but remember that its everybody's job to do it. The more people are doing it the fastest it's done and the cooler it gets. People in the community gain respect and recognition through those moments for they are part of the community as a whole!
The cleaning day will be followed by a chill at the lake + BBQ if the weather permits. Otherwise we'll go get a pizza or a beer =) People should take their own food and drinks family and friends are of course welcome! Details on the event will be given on the fly.

Gorilla Warfare

Introduction

Op Gorilla Warfare II (OGW2) will allow us to put our hands on some technically more advanced material and équipement for the P1 lab. OGW2 will be focused on a single collection point but the material will be divided in several places. I ask the members to be flexible and as available as possible for this operation.

Who's involved

Hackuarium, LIP-EPFL, UC.

Phase 1: Recon

--- WAS DONE IN OGW1---
The material offered this time is described in the following document and will be shared according to what's written: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BQAPrON6TtM5t0TpSTbule5gUQzRi7O9fxFNPBArNNA/edit#gid=1608433529

Phase 2: Material picking & sharing

--- TO BE DONE ---
Once picked up the material will be sorted and what doesn't stay in Hackuarium will be delivered to LIP
'Date to be decided soon
Massive pickup will be done during 1 day.
Will be needed:

1 driver

1 Van (the biggest)

2 helpers

Planning
Expected volume (looking larger):
There is a lot of small items that can be placed around the palettes but would otherwise cover 4 palettes 2 palettes for the incubators (realist)
1 palette for the HPLC equivalent of 3 palettes for the cupboards and sterile hood
Total: 10 palettes

Renting the VW crafter 17.4 m3 (400*200*217 - l*w*h) using cff palettes 80 * 120 we can put inside: 4 palettes + lots of space for the rest
This means 2 to 3 back and forth
time(Hackuarium - site) = 25min (in a google perfect world)
time(1*back-forth) = 1h
time (un)load = 20 to 30 min
time tot = 2*t(b-f) + 2*t(ul) + 2*t(l) = 3.5h

The utilitarian truc is rented. 219.10.-, unlimited kilometers! Ya man that's a 100.- discount !

Conclusion:
- we need either people on spot to help unload and put up (so we don't loose time bringing all up)

Timing
- 08:30 departure sharp from Hackuarium

Pickup locations

Nestec (Nestle)

Route du Jorat 57, 1000 Lausanne 26

Personnel
Coordination: Yann P
Drivers (needed 1):
Drivers backup (needed 1):
Helpers (needed 2):
Helpers backup (needed 2):
On site (needed 1 to 2):

Phase 3: Organizing, Sharing, Setting Up

--- TO BE DONE ---
This phase will be done just after phase 2. Once the material is collected, and temporarily stored. It will have to be definitely stored and put into place. This will also be done alternatively with WipeOut I That part will need a lot of people for carrying, lifting, setting up the furniture since several zones in the lab will be reorganized. The storage zone and the P1 zone will be reorganized. The more we are during this day the better.
