Hi all,

Some of you may have seen me asking this question on IRC over the last
few days, so if you're one of those people, my apologies for the
duplicate communication.  Feel free to respond anyways :-)

I'm working with a group in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, Canada to build
a new hackerspace.  One of the debates we're having right now is about
vetting new members.  I'm really interested in what other spaces are
doing.

Specifically, I'm interested in what a person has to do to become a
member of your organization and get 24/7 access to the space (if you
allow that), and what you feel the advantages and disadvantages to your
approach are.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Cheers,

Eric
