[Makerspace-keymembers] Fwd: Interested in your setup

[Emily Knox]

We only have people sign a waiver if they become a keymember.  You should
get two forms when you apply: the IMC key form and the MU liability form.

We haven't given waivers to people who just come into the space.  I 'm not
sure if I"m comfortable doing that at the moment but maybe a sign is in
order.
