Operative rules of the Hackerspace

Preface

You know damn well what these mean. If you don't, just ask. Don't act smart.

Tidiness

  1. Every item has its place - have you used a tool, and now you're finished and leaving? Put it back in its place.
  2. Food spoils - are you using the fridge? Keep in mind that food starts evolving (spoiling) after a few days, so either remember about your food, or send an email to the mailing list. Visibly spoiled food will be thrown out without a notice.
  3. The trash doesn't take itself out - is the trash can full? Don't overfill it. Go touch some grass and take a walk with the trash bag to the bins outside.
  4. Dirty table? Wipe it, it's gonna take you just a minute, and the space will be cleaner thanks to you.
  5. Working on a project, and created some shavings or other mess? Clean it up, and toss it into the trash can. No, the floor is not a trash can.

(Co-)Existing in the Hackerspace

  1. The hackerspace is not a hotel. Housing people was never our plan, we're renting a workshop, not a living space. Falling asleep on the couch can happen to anyone, but this kind of thing should be an exception, not a rule - and with a good reason (e.g. you were working on a project until late night and missed the last train of the day).
  2. The hackerspace is not a crack den. People whose state or behaviour seems harmful to the Hackerspace will be asked to leave immediately. Illegal substances are also a basis for being shown the door.
    • Rationale: if you don't know how to drink, don't drink; don't be a pothead, don't deal drugs; showering is very encouraged.

I want to do X in the space, who should I ask for permission?

If “X” affects other HS members, ask around on the mailing list.

Examples of things to talk about on the forum

  • Leaving large items in the Hackerspace (e.g. wardrobe, scooter, fridge, bike, etc.)
  • Renting another room
  • Repurposing a room
  • Throwing out a couch, armchair or other furniture
  • Building a kitchen
  • Larger renovation works (e.g. painting, plaster chipping)

Examples of things you don't need to bother anyone with

  • Putting up a shelf
  • Cleaning up
  • Running cables, etc.
