They're just not hackerspaces. I don't think they even really compete<br>
with hackerspaces.<br>

They are also having some problems with money/closing and too much<br>

trust fund or startup cash are going to do OK, but it's not a model<br>
that can spread and grow , due to the super-capital intensity of it.<br>
