Editing Phong

I find hackerspace theory to be incredibly interesting. No two spaces are exactly alike, yet they share a common theme of making, doing, and hacking. As such, I try to write Phong to encompass almost every space's functionality out there. Phong was originally written and is still used today by SYNHAK, the Akron Hackerspace. SYNHAK's founding mission is to "provide an environment for people to educate, create, and share amongst themselves and others within the domains of technology, art and science." Our governmental structure is modeled after a combination of Maker's Alliance from Cleveland, OH, Noisebridge from San Francisco, CA, and HeatSync Labs of Phoenix, NM, which has led us to have strong feelings of transparency among members, inclusiveness of the wider community outside of the space, and a love of the do-ocracy. We also have a hard time filling all the officer positions all of the time, so we needed some help.
