[Noisebridge-discuss] Hacker Dojo / NB reciprocal membership WAS: Hacker Dojo up and running, and in the mainstream news

So, let me understand this:  if Noisebridge were normally closed to people, and we allowed Hacker Dojo members in to Noisebridge to use all of our facilities as an offer of reciprocation, then everything would be cool -- yet, since we are not closed, allowing Hacker Dojo members in to use all of our facilities is not valuable to them?

 

 

Ideally, I would love to see alll hacker spaces (or as many as possible) offer the use of their spaces to members of other hacker spaces around the world.  It seems to me that anyone who helps a hacker space anywhere, helps the entire community.  We can all learn a lot from one another.  And we can all bring what we learn back home to help our local spaces.

 


There's been talk of creating an actual passport-like-thing, mostly for fun, that members of any hacker space can get stamped (or stickered), as they travel around the world visiting other hacker spaces.  Cool idea?

 

 

Mitch.
