Teams

  Please see Nottinghack Rules/Guide - Hackspace Organisation and Teams

The hackspace has a number of small, self-governing teams that maintain particular areas. All teams have a channel in the team slack where they work.

Questions for teams

If you have a question about something a team looks after they can be contacted on the team email or Slack channel (listed on their team page). Likewise if you are interested in joining a team, email them or use Slack. Please note, however, that Slack is not a way for you to ask for things to be done - it's purely for teams to organise between themselves.

Team trustees

All teams in the Hackspace are ultimately responsible to the Trustees who have delegated certain powers and responsibilities to the teams. Each team has a trustee contact the team can contact with any questions or concerns that they might have. All teams can email trustees@nottinghack.org.uk, but may find that emailing an individual trustee gets a faster response.

Resources

There are a range of Team Tools and Resources available for teams to work productively.
