*'''Brick Press Manual''' - for the first time since the 2011 [[Original Civilization Starter Kit Release]] (CSK Release), we will be producing the next iteration of our Civilization Starter Kit. Because of the large scope of the project, we will release the CSK in the form of individual machine downloads (instead of the set of 50 machines). We will also keep a live editable version of the CSK on Github.

*'''Website''' - [[Website 2014]] intends to create a one-stop shop for all information regarding OSE, from newsletter to getting involved to press kit to media assets to development platform to facebook. All linked and accessible, with intent of Lean Organization where people can find as much as possible by themselves prior to contacting us.
 
*'''CEB Financial Model''' - without it, we do and observe - as opposed to 'predict and observe' - the latter allows us to test assumptions and tweak the program to test whether the workshop production model is scalable. It allows us to make meaningful revenue projections for economic sustainability and scaling.

*'''8 Hour Total CEB Fab Ergonomics (post materials sourcing)''' - Documenting how many people are required to produce 2 complete brick presses in 8 hours. Creative constraint: entire process can be run in parallel in a 3000 sq ft workshop (12 bays, 256 sq ft each). Design has to match production rate to generalized GVCS Flexible Fabrication infrastructure that includes a CNC torch table, 3D Printer, and 100W Laser Cutter.
 
*'''Determine Most Critical Proofs of Concept 2014 Goals''' - CEB Press production is one of those goals. Determine how much money is needed over a 2.5 month period to develop a self-sustaining business model around Extreme Manufacturing Workshops, branded as skilling-production-enterprise workshops. What investment is needed to deliver such a workshop, and demonstrate a replicable, 3 day workshop scenario (schedule of 40 workshops per year, at $15k net revenue per workshop ($17.2 - $0.5k overhead - $0.5k warranty). 2 Machines produced ($10k net) + workshop revenue with 24 people ($7200), including 3 apprentice assistants. 40x$15k=$600k. Total overhead $6k/year, $5k capital assets depreciation, $50k salary, $12k (2d/week) [[Administrative Assistant]].

*'''Modeling Software Package Prepared''' - Downloadable library of parts for the CEB - for mechanical, electronic, and conceptual design - all to be worked out during the workshop and improved as a result of the workshop.
The purpose of a calendar is to plan tasks instead of writing them as lists in order to focus on getting things done in an effective way. Making lists misses accountability to a temporal dimension of project management - so a Calendar is more useful for this purpose. See [[Calendar Howto]] for embedding a Google Calendar.
*'''Collaborative Swag Store''' - This would start with a set of labels for peoples' computers/bumper stickers - our tiny step at forming a Distributive Enterprise collaborative, where we reach out to other groups, and brand a group of open source hardware producers who follow the cc-by-sa license

Calendar

The purpose of a calendar is to plan tasks instead of writing them as lists in order to focus on getting things done in an effective way. Making lists misses accountability to a temporal dimension of project management - so a Calendar is more useful for this purpose. See Calendar Howto for embedding a Google Calendar.
