Hi!

Not exactly "hackerspace research" but rather "hackerspaces' research" : I
have been toying with the idea that some hackerspaces, rather than be just
workshops, could be research lab, making regular scientific publications.

The typical scientific publication process is to submit a draft to a
journal comittee, which will suggest modifications, accept the final paper
or reject it. It is not required to be a member of an official lab. More
than that, the most important way to make a lab "official" is to have
publications in serious journals.

Does anyone know of people who did that with success? Does anyone know of
journals that would be the most appropriate? I think that an important
improvement of certain type of 3D printers or a use of unusual printing
material are publishable research.
