Dear Gary,

We are an open source appropriate technology organization - see my TED Talk on the Global Village Construction Set (link). We are planning to build an open source aquaponics greenhouse (link)) as part of our work at Open Source Ecology.

I recently ran into the seminal work of iAV - and immediately felt that our missions for disseminating the best technologies are in line. I am glad that Dr. McMurty kept his designs open for all to benefit. We are interested in developing a highly replicable, open source production models - one being an 800 sf home unit - and another that earns $100k from 2000 sf of growing space. We are as such reaching out to subject matter experts who can help us make it happen. We've got a leading IPM guy and a leading open source mycology guy contributing their expertise - as we'd like to have mushrooms integrated into the operation. You can see initial layout in the above link.

We are planning to run an aquaponics workshop at the end of June or July, where we build the greenhouse structure and beds. We follow collaborativ swarming methods with modular design such that a greenhouse build is doable with a workshop crew over a weekend, where we start with a prepared site.

Would you or Mark McMurty be available to provide technical design assistance, web conference, or even help run the above workshop as an Instructor? If not, can you refer me to any other experts familiar with iAVs who may be interested in open design?

Our requirement is that any IP generated would be open source, compliant with the Open Source Hardware Association's definition (link) of open design.

Thanks,
Marcin
