[hackerspaces] Help me make it happen for 'hackert0wn' on Indiegogo

[Psy Tek]

We have a lot of work to do on this.  Thank you all for the valuable
feedback.

Here's a similar project that uses 40 shipping containers:
http://www.kunsthalle.com/

We've created a uservoice page here http://hackert0wn.uservoice.com to
itemize the feedback and keep track of it.
Here is an etherpad if you prefer to jot some notes:

We also have a Google group where you can see more of the history of the
hackert0wn project here:
