Membership is handled differently in different spaces. So there probably is no way to exchange membership between all of them. <br><br>You might need to just start with a couple and try to get it to expand. But my guess is no matter what some spaces will never sign onto this. <br>

<br>However I've to say that from my point of view the most easy way would be pay in your home hacker center and temporarily in the other one which you are visiting. Bit more expensive but most simple. Option number two would be to create some group of hacker spaces which would recognise each other so also the status of the members etc. However what about resources/money. If I'm now at 091 labs as a member of Noisebridge, to whom shall I pay, how much and who is going to keep the resources. The arguments may
vary from point of view that you are using resources in a place so you should support it. Or other point of view is that you were using resources in another place before, these help you to create something which you are applying/teaching in the "new" space so again, who gets the resources the helpers at the beginning? Maybe Mitch could you comment? Is your project about the passports about this too, is it going to be revealed soon? :-)))<br>
<br>It may sounds materialistic but I'm learning more and more that strong/good financial base/habits are very important for creation, running and finishing the projects. I've plenty to learn, but I'm trying.<br>
<br>Anyway I would love to hear your feedback and I'm posting this also to the <a href="http://hackerspace.org" target="_blank">hackerspace.org</a><br><br>Which remind me that I'm around four days behind paying my membership at 091 labs .... <br>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hi to All!<br>
I want to announce that I'm on hiatus status for now and I've been for several<br>
months, sorry for not announcing publicly before (Kelly was informed, with delay<br>
...) .<br>
<br>
<br>
The reason for that is my financial situation which is improving but it is still<br>
not good enough to support multiple memberships. I'm trying to apply the system<br>
of becoming a member and paying member fees at hacker spaces where I'm active<br>
(091 labs right now). As soon as I've sufficient funding, I'd like to pay at<br>
least my starving hacker fees at Noisebridge + the fees of the place where I'm<br>
temporarily active. This may take me several months, hopefully not more than<br>
year.<br>
<br>
So best of luck with funding, once I can afford it, I'll join the "in good<br>
standing" club :-))<br>
<br>
Sincerely,<br>
<br>
Frantisek<br>
