We are currently through Phase 1 and halfway through Phase 2 on your list. For Phase 1 we are using <a href="http://www.wildapricot.com/" target="_blank">WildApricot </a>which is a webbased member management system that costs $50/month. Our space's membership costs $10/month and it only took a couple months for WildApricot to pay for itself by offering easy self-management of membership to our community. For Phase 2, see <a href="http://makeict.org/wiki/index.php/Electronic_Door_Entry" target="_blank">this post</a> on our wiki, which includes a link to the software in development via bitbucket. Phase 3 is also planned in the future and it shouldn't be too hard to implement once Phase 2 is complete. Wild Apricot has an API that we plan to connect to our access control system for automated updating of who has access to what at our space.<div>

<p dir="ltr">Glad to see you posting about this. Space management is still a big time sink, and by collaborating on solutions we can make things a lot easier.</p>
<p dir="ltr">If you have any questions about Seltzer, feel free to email me or the dev list!</p>
<p dir="ltr">I'd love to see the community come together on a solution, whether it's Seltzer or something else.</p>
