What's this?

This page tries to give pointers for new members on the workings of the Techinc hackerspace.

What do I need to do?

First, become a member! and then reading this document is an excellent start!

Probably the most important is to know our "rules": http://wiki.techinc.nl/index.php/Rules .

How do I get in contact with other members?

  • Subscribe to our general mailing list. This is our official communications channel. We (foolishly) assume every member follows it. What you send there will be read by many members (and some non-members ;) ). Organisation/Mailing_Lists has the details
  • Add yourself to the http://wiki.techinc.nl/index.php/People page (and create a wiki account if you didn't have one.)

What's happening?

Look at the events page: http://wiki.techinc.nl/index.php/Events

All events are member organised, the exception being the ALV. As a member, you are encouraged to organize events as long as they:

  • don't conflict with other previously scheduled events
  • are open and free for all members. We encourage you to make them open and free to the general public as well.
  • have a non-commercial goal.

To organize a normal event:

  • Send an email to the member Mailinglist with your idea.
  • Create an event page.
  • Pick a date
  • Do it!

Doing projects

Can I ...

The short answer: Yes! but don't forget to use common sense.

But: don't forget to follow the rules.

Who do I ask to...

  • learn about a certain tool: Ask the member that owns the tool or is the "guardian" of that tool. This is especially true if it is a potentially dangerous or expensive tool. If you don't know, ask to the mailinglist or on a social night.

I have a problem with...

  • ... my financial member obligations: please contact the board.
