== Financing ==
+
Finanzierungs-Modell: Jedes Mitglied bezahlt 25 Euro im Monat mittels Dauerauftrag.
+
Das Geld sollte möglichst jeweils am 1. des Monats auf unserem Konto eingehen.
+
Verein: Es ist sinnvoll den Raum als Verein anzumieten um Verantwortung und Mitspracherecht gerecht zu teilen. Hierzu hat sich der Verein
+
Wirdorange angeboten. Ein Modell basierend auf Mitgliedsschaft wurde gewählt.
+
(realraum.at)
+
 
+
Funding of the C4 is mostly obtained through the monthly member fees; 55 members (50 active, 5 passive) do their part in paying the rent and service
+
bills. Occasionally, donations or income from hosted events floods into the coffers of C4, and since there is always something that needs fixing or
+
improving, is greatly appreciated.
+
(http://hackerspaces.org/wiki/C4)
+
 
+
Der laufende Betrieb wird durch die Beiträge der über 120 Mitglieder finanziert. Förder- und Sponsorengelder,
+
unter anderem aus dem '''Netzkultur-Budget der Stadt Wien („Netznetz“)''', ermöglichen den Ausbau des Raumes, Anschaffung von Equipment,
+
und größere Vorhaben.

== Draft of letter to potential enthusiasts ==
+
Dear recipient/reader,
+
The goal of the present letter is to reach out to the creative minds of people
+
dissatisfied with the ordinary and thrilled by the prospect of using things in
+
ways they weren't supposed to be used in.
+
 
+
We plan to create a lieu for hackers to meet, socialize and be creative.
+
A space bursting with new ideas in the realms of hardware, software, photography,
+
film, electronics and any other topics lurking at the back of one's mind just
+
waiting to emerge.
+
+
This Hackerspace (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hackerspace) would be a place to
+
meet like-minded people, engage in projects, hold or participate in workshops,
+
give or listen to talks, or simply hang out and have a beer [Oh... ech mengen do
+
musse mer kucken,  do musse mer schon definitiv e Club sinn, soss dierfe mer
+
daat wuel net?! (soulaang mer et net verkaafen misst daat dach keen problem sinn)]
+
with people who share your interests.
+
+
We want to stress that his place shall be open to anybody, irrespective of gender,
+
nationality or interests, as long as they're gripped by creating or taking apart things,
+
turn they out to be art, new software, interesting hardware, or a new
+
approach to anything related to science, communication, social interaction or,
+
for that matter, politics.
+
+
If you've never been to such a Hackerspace, we encourage you to have a look at existing
+
and successful venues abroad. Among the most popular ones today are the ''Metalab''
+
in Vienna (http://metalab.at/wiki/Folder:V5a-en), the ''C4'' in Cologne
+
(https://koeln.ccc.de/) or the ''C-Base'' in Berlin (http://www.c-base.org/).
+
+
We feel that creating a similar infrastructure in Luxembourg would be a chance to fill a real
+
cultural void and encourage local, but also inter-regional, creative interaction and enable
+
the exploration of new boundaries. Further, businesses could - and should be encouraged to -
+
support and harness the potential and creativity that will flourish in such a space.
+
 
+
Establishing this hackerspace will require access to a physical location and mac require provision
+
of support from state and city governments. The space will be run as a non-profit organisation.
+
 
+
We have assembled a collection of detailed information, a plan of action as well as a
+
brainstorming section at the following URL: http://mallory.lu/wiki/
+
+
We would also greatly appreciate if you could forward this letter, talk to other people you
+
think could be interested and get in touch with us.
+
+
Your critical feedback will help us to continue our efforts in getting things done.
+
 
+
 
+
* will try to get support from state-government, city-government
+
* from metalab folder: "space for free exchange of information, and collaboration between
+
technical-creative Enthusiasts, Hackers and Founders. The Lab is dedicated to providing
+
Infrastructure for projects and offers a physical space for interested people from the wide
+
fields of IT, new media, and hacker culture."
+
* will act as a non-profit org.
