[OpenDesign] Institute of Making is opening in London - but how open?

Fri Jan 25 19:20:30 UTC 2013

Kat, I really liked the post and I think that lot of spaces like that and
even Fab Labs are not as open as they should be. In Brazil we have the same
problem. The Fab Labs started few months ago but the rules to use aren´t so
open. We have now a Fab Lab National Association to disseminate the
principles and practices of a Fab Lab and help at the open of new labs and
we are working hard with this question.
