Open Source Hardware Camp 2017 (2nd & 3rd Sept) Call for Participation.

[Andrew Back]

Hello,

This year Open Source Hardware Camp will take place over the weekend
of Saturday 2nd & Sunday 3rd September, hosted as part of the Wuthering
Bytes festival in Hebden Bridge, which in 2017 will take place over the
course of 10 days (again!)

We will be returning to the Birchcliffe Centre in Hebden Bridge, which
benefits from the convenience of adjoining, budget accommodation.

Proposals for talks and workshops for OSHCamp 2017 are invited!

There is no theme and topics may include, for example:

* Open source hardware projects
* Open development practices and principles
* Novel/interesting/fun projects built using open source hardware
* Tools (hardware and software)
* Skills and techniques, e.g. PCB fab, DIY SMT assembly
* Relevant technologies, e.g. SPI/I2C bus programming
* ...something else relevant to the community

If you would like to give a talk on the Saturday and/or run a workshop
on the Sunday please contact me off-list.

**** Note that the deadline for submitting titles and abstracts is
Monday 1st May. If you would like to discuss ideas etc. please get in
touch sooner, rather than later. ****
