InitLabv3
Initlab v3 is the current space for Initlab.
(While we're still working on the wiki intensively, here's an overview of all pages in the InitLabv3 prefix: http://wiki.initlab.org/index.php?title=Special%3APrefixIndex&prefix=InitLabv3&namespace=0)
Address
The hackerspace is located on 6 Rila Street in Sofia, Bulgaria (in cyrillic: ул. "Рила" 6, София, България). Please note that this is the Rila Street near Lavov Most, not in Pancharevo.
Practical informating when visiting
Entering
When the space is already unlocked, the door to init Lab is opened automatically when you call the phone number 02/4624356. The system will hang up and unlock the door for you. There is a regular doorbell as well.
Only certain members can unlock the space. They are listed here. This is likely to change in the future so that every member of the Lab can open and close the lab.
Leaving
This is a checklist for the last person who is leaving the lab:
- Close all windows
- Turn off all the lights inside.
- Close the doors.
- Go down to the entrance door.
- Open the entrance door and press the red button on the white box above the switchboard.
- After you get out, the door will be locked (it makes a very distinctive sound).
- When outside, just close the external black door, there is no need to lock it with the padlock.
