− | == Info ==
| |
− | | |
− | ACKspace is a hackerspace in the south of Netherlands in the City of Heerlen within Limburg.
| |
− | | |
− | A large number of people still think hackers are criminals which break into computers and steal information. We are here to show them the true meaning of hacking.
| |
− | | |

| |
− | | |

− | <br> ACKspace was founded in december 2010 by PsychiC, Vicarious and LuckY. These three form the board trying to keep the space running smoothly.
| |
− | | |
− | We strongly encourage our members to contribute with ideas, workshops and projects. Together we are creating the place to be for all sorts of hackers out there.
| |

− | March 2011 we got a physical space in the former CBS building in Heerlen (XCBS), where we are currently located.
| |
− | | |
− | Because we share the building with other users we are limited to the hours the overall building is open. These hours are located on the main page along with a button showing our actual status. Usually we are open every evening and in the weekends, but when in doubt contact us.
| |
− | | |
− | Although we are located in the Netherlands we welcome guests from all over and we are happy to welcome new members joining each month.

− | == Imagining the perfect place ==
| |
− | | |
− | A HackerSpace should be spacious with preferably a few smaller rooms to have different projects in.
| |
− | The Kitchen is nearly a must but it should be a bit shielded from any other rooms to avoid any smells.
| |
− | A Bathroom is an interesting feat.
| |
− | The Living Room Spacious enough to have a couch and big table
| |
− | A good public transport link is a must too
| |
− | | |
− | The perfect place would have:
| |
− | | |
− | *A low rent ✓
| |
− | *Heating ✓
| |
− | *Natural light / windows to open ✓
| |
− | *Kitchen ✓
| |
− | **Side note: we have a small bar in our space. The building has a small shared kitchen in room L014. There's also a huge cantina on the other side of the building, not sure if we can use it, we'll have to ask..
| |
− | *Toilet(s) ✓
| |
− | *Shower ✗
| |
− | *Parking or at least the possibility to access it with a truck to (un)load stuff ✓
| |
− | *A bus stop or railway station not too far away and available till late ✓
| |
− | *Separate entry (not shared with the rest of the tenants) so that we can install our own access system ✗
| |
− | **The building has one shared entrance, the reception is always staffed by at least one person
| |
− | *No (or deaf) neighbours ✓
| |
− | *Easy to reach ✓
| |
− | **Our location has free parking and is wheelchair accessible
| |
− | *Some storage rooms (basement/cellar) for server ✓
| |
− | *Broadband Internet access ✓
| |
− | *Possibility to install machinery / tools for making things ✓
| |
− | *Exhibition area ✓
| |
− | *Conference/presentation area ✓
| |
− | **We can either use our own space or rent a large presentation area in the building for a day
| |
− | *Small room without windows/light (for photography stuff) ✗
| |
− | *Access to Food (either Restaurants or Markets) ✓
