[iRail] The Hub - an idea

[Thomas Tuts]

Sounds like a cool idea! However, could you clarify these two things please:

** How many times per week/month would you come join us to work on your own
project in the center of Ghent? *
By own project, do you mean projects appointed to you by iRail or actual
own projects that don't really have anything to do with iRail (for example,
I do a lot of freelance webdesign and front-end development, would it be
okay for me to work on stuff like this?)

* * Would you be willing to pay something in order to make this happen? If
yes, how much at max? *
Are we talking about a one-time payment here, or something like a monthly
"subscription"?

In any case, this definitely sounds really interesting!
