This is a working document on the rules we'll have in our hackerspace

Contents

Internal regulations

Anarchy is rules without rulers

Policies

  1. Be excellent to each other

There should be some policies to keep order clear for everybody. Policies include...

General order (noise, general use, keys)

  1. Law in state counts. Normally, no noise is allowed between 22h00 and 07h00 In between these hours, please respect your neighbors, you might need them sometime! ;-)
  2. Keys are available from XXX and can be posted back to XXX after use. Should there be a need to use the hackerspace more than once, special arrangements can be made. Please mail us for more information
  3. Nobody below the age of 18 is allowed unattended access without the written consent of a tutor or parent.

Smoking

  1. hackerspace should be a non-smoking area. However, there should be a place (outside?) provided for smokers

Housekeeping

  1. everybody using the hackerspace is responsible for the equipment to stay in good shape. Using the restrooms or any other facilities entails cleaning after use.
  2. all material must be returned to its proper location after use.
  3. projects should be stored in their proper location in between working sessions. (Exceptions can be granted on a case by case basis depending on the type of project)

Food and disposal of old food

  1. Everybody taking food and/or drinks to hackerspace is supposed to check regularly for their expiry dates and dispose of them, in case they're no longer consumable. You should check to dispose waste in an appropriate waste-bin and separate trash if possible!

More rules

  1. There is only one more rule: Don't make any more rules necessary!


Procedures

Procedures help fulfill important tasks using the same standards/methods every time for all users. It is important to have some for our not-so-regular members...IMHO

  • Startup
    • Entering the sny2cat locations implies starting up all the systems that are there. <LOCATION OF POWER SWITCHES, INTERNET CONNECTIVITY, ETC HERE>
  • Shutdown
    • The person "renting" hackerspace (i.e. who has the key), is also responsible for its proper shutdown. Before leaving syn2cat, please make sure that the following was checked :
      • Everyone belonging to your group (including invitees) must leave the house
      • Power needs to be cut <PLACE HERE>
      • Check that all computers are down, except those who are supposed to be running, namely <INSERT SERVERS HERE>
      • Control the fridge and other food/drink reserves you/your group used. Do not leave anything opened or unconsumed lying/standing around!
      • Are all the lights turned off? Check the outside lights as well!
      • Make sure you lock tightly before leaving the place!
    • Do not forget to return the key at least 48 hours after you rented it to the address you were given.
