Yay -- congrats on your new corporation! And your temporary garage. Soon you'll outgrow that garage, so best of luck on your space hunting.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
At Noisebridge we also went the 501(c)(3) route. We got a bunch of questions back from the IRS examiner, and answered them all last week. We should hear back soon.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
We'd be happy to share all of our work with any and all hacker spaces who'd could benefit from what we've done.<BR>
