Subject: [Discuss] Suggestions for the OSHWA website and FAQ?
To: disc...@lists.oshwa.org

Hi all,

A while back, Alicia asked me to help update the content on the OSHWA
website and, in turn, I'd like to ask you for your help. In
particular, I'm interested in expanding the content of the FAQ
(http://www.oshwa.org/faq/) to make it more useful to those looking
for information about open-source hardware and OSHWA.

What questions would you like to see answered in the FAQ?

What information and advice would you offer to those interested in
open-source hardware?

I know that this is a busy time - with the Open Hardware Summit and
Maker Faire approaching - but I wanted to raise the question now so we
can think about it during the summit. Suggestions welcome now or
later.

David

David has been instrumental to getting the existing FAQs up. Thank you
David!

I agree, it may be good to speak up about those unspoken rules. It seems
there is a fair bit of confusion around those.

The list of companies sounds cool, but we don't want to get into situation
where oshwa becomes a judge or gate keeper of what is and isn't, and rather
remains an educational source about open source hardware. But we like
celebration! I'll be celebrating several factoids about open source
hardware companies at the summit. We are also talking about a repo that
could include any and all oshw projects that people upload themselves.
Basically a virtual library full of open source hardware goodness :) But I
am off topic, that's a project not a FAQ.

See you all at the summit!

Alicia
