Just thought I'd introduce myself and start a little conversation.
I'm Steve Collins, a freelance IA and social computing advocate from
Canberra, Australia.

A few of us Canberra freelancers are starting to think about setting
up a coworking space here. We plan to have it in the Canberra CBD and
have just started thinking about it - so there's nothing concrete yet.

Here's what we've got in terms of ideas thus far:

    * around 80-100 square meters
    * in the CBD (as I said)
    * 2-4 full-timers with space for a few more

Looking around, rent for this sort of space in the Canberra CBD looks
to be in the AU$500-550/week range, on top of which there's the
ongoing costs such as:

    * utilities
    * Internet
    * cleaning
    * things to make it look nice (paint, pictures and the like) plus
desks, chairs, etc. (I'm guessing that will run to around AU$10000)

If you're at all interested in joining the conversation or helping out
on getting something off the ground, please let me know on trib [at]
acidlabs [dot] org.

Thanks!

Steve
