This is indeed what this list is for.  But it sounds like you're
intending to run something quite different from the spaces most of us
run... so I'm not sure why you're asking on here :)

To put this in context - last week I had a long conversation with a
friend who's in the process of setting up a similarly-structured space
to ours, but which is going to have a completely different crowd with
different interests.  For his music studio co-op, the way we do things
in hackerspaces was relevant.  For what you're describing, the common
interests (technology/hacking) don't overcome the different structures,
and the conversation is less productive :/
