Communication

From HackerspaceWiki

An important goal of hackerspaces.org is to increase communication and collaboration between hackerspaces, so bigger projects like hackerspace-festivals and support of fledgling hackerspaces become feasible.

[edit] Jabber

The best way to get in touch with hackers from all over the world. Every Jabber account created on jabber.hackerspaces.org automatically gets a contact list of all the other users. Makes for a nice network effect.

note: I just signed up, and I am not seeing contact list information for other people on jabber.hackerspaces.org populate my contact list. Is that information automatilly loaded/synced, or is there a manual step that needs to make that happen?

you need to relogin once to get the updated contact list.

[edit] Mailinglists

For coordination and discussion purposes we also provide mailinglists. Join our guaranteed low-traffic Announce List (moderated), if you're just interested in updates and event announcements. If you want to actively discuss hackerspaces the Discussion List is where you want to be.
