[hackerspaces] "thinking of starting a hackerspace"

[Jenn]

I'm in the process of starting one, and it seems like most of the resources
out there are things like, here's how membership might work, etc. I find
that I had the most trouble with things like incorporating, finding a
space, budgeting, etc. I found myself wishing for a magical packet of info
and the paperwork you need to actually take care of the tedious stuff so I
could focus on actually having a hackerspace. I know every hackerspace is
different, but maybe if those who have gone through the process could
compile what one generally needs to do in various states and countries,
people would find it less daunting.
