Hi everyone,

I'm working on a definition of Coworking to make it easier to choose who to
include in the map of coworking spaces in Belgium
<http://coworkingbelgium.be/belgium-coworking-spaces-map>. I know it can be
a controversial subject and I don't want to start a flamewar, but I would
like to have your feedback on the basic elements to build this definition.
I think it could also be helpful to make it easier to explain to our
potential customers and journalists.

In my definition a Coworking space :

   - Calls itself a coworking space.
   - Has a fully dedicated espace for cowoking (not just a few hours or a
   cafeteria shared with patrons).
   - Treats coworkers as 1st class clients, not as a lesser kind to fill
   unused space.
   - Has  somebody dedicated to connect the members (a facilitator, not an
   administrative asistant.)
   - Provides a non hostile and friendly environment that encourages
   collaboration and interaction.

What do you think?
