Location selection

There would be many criteria for deciding the best location for a new Free Geek, including:

  • Need
    • Wealth disparity
    • Environmental concerns (high levels of dumping)
  • Supply of computers
  • Grant availability
  • Cheap rent
  • Livability (we're planning on sending a live human being there)

Resource diversion

How much money would we spend on non-Mothership Free Geek's?

Investment/Return

Would we make deals with them that they give us big kickbacks in exchange for our startup support? (Say... 10% gross ad infinitum?)

The Bumbershoot

What is this mythical creature known as The Bumbershoot? Would it be democratically elected? Would it have a physical location, or just a PO Box like so many other-worldly beings?
