[hackerspaces] Looking for another hackerspace to share telepresence

Will do!

In regards to open solutions that can be used by other spaces, I can

(In general, any software Hacker Dojo writes goes onto gtihub:
https://github.com/hackerdojo - We have 19 projects there, everything from
our billing system to our events system to sign-in machines, etc.)
