UPDATE 2/5/2019: Roughly 3 dozen cracks were patched over the course of a roof-repair work party that took place on 27 January 2019. Many thanks to [User:yar], [User:tunabananas], Maria, Robb, Anka and Laura for hella throwin' down!
Remaining leaks exist generally in the vicinity of the skylights. Please pin building [AT] lists [DOT] omnicommons[ DOT] org with reports, feedback, further info, and offers to volunteer some help!
Location of roof-leaks need to be marked on the floor with a big 'X' marks the spot, and left there until the roofer comes.
1. First, as soon as you see the leak, put a quarter down on the floor right where the drop is falling (even if it is wet)
2. Then go acquire these things:
- A mop and bucket if there is a lot of water / active leak,
- At the least, a rag/handtowel in order to at least temporarily dry off the floor so the tape (marking an 'X') will stick
- Two big pieces of painter's tape to make the 'X' on the floor (most important)
- Note: Tape can be found in sudo room, currently they are hung on the wall at the base of the staircase that leads up to the ballroom stage
- A permanent marker (Sharpie), if you can find one
