Having been on the board of directors of a decently-sized hackerspace, I do not recommend it to folks looking to avoid burnout.

Still being on the board of a relatively small (sub-50 regulars) hackerspace, I second this comment. The perspective of spending all of your free time on paperwork and management tasks and no time whatsoever on actual hacking is not helping with burnout.
Not to mention being seen as responsible for interpersonal problems among the membership.
