The Fab Charter<br>
<blockquote type="cite">Mission: fab labs are a global network of local
labs, enabling invention by providing access for individuals to tools
for digital fabrication.<br>
<br>
Access: you can use the fab lab to make almost anything (that doesn't
hurt anyone); you must learn to do it yourself, and you must share use
of the lab with other uses and users<br>
<br>
Education: training in the fab lab is based on doing projects and
learning from peers; you're expected to contribute to documentation and
instruction<br>
<br>
Responsibility: you're responsible for:<br>
<br>
safety: knowing how to work without hurting people or machines<br>
cleaning up: leaving the lab cleaner than you found it<br>
operations: assisting with maintaining, repairing, and reporting on
tools, supplies, and incidents<br>
<br>
Secrecy: designs and processes developed in fab labs must remain
available for individual use although intellectual property can be
protected however you choose<br>
<br>
Business: commercial activities can be incubated in fab labs but they
must not conflict with open access, they should grow beyond rather than
within the lab, and they are expected to benefit the inventors, labs,
and networks that contribute to their success.<br>
</blockquote>
I think that we can easily adapt it to fit the Makerspace.<br>
