Large-Scale Collaborative Design

Basic Coordination Requirements:

1. Focus. If audacious goal is clear (such as getting past COVID), focus is still needed to develop products fully.
2. Scalable platform - wiki is used in OSE's work.
3. Collaborators - who is collaborating? Need a team.
4. Documentation - most important asset.
5. Development Process - standard product development, such as embodied in Development Template
6. Task division' - Kanban board, modular breakdown
7. Prototyping - Ideas are nothing without prototypes to validate them. There are many ways from 3DP, to calculations, to partial prototypes of Test-Driven Design
8. Review - SMEs and users feedback on the development
9. Communication - video, social media, Slack
10. Distillation - upvoting. Critical.
11. Application - Developers must either engage in dogfooding or production/distribution to outside markets
