The development of products (goods and services) that leverages open collaboration and clear documentation as a means to involve large numbers of distributed contributors in the development process. The aim is to produce high quality products at low cost - and to make these products competitive on the open market - by involving sufficient collaboratory effort to make these products better and cheaper than proprietary competition. The 2 main keys to cost reduction lies in open design (zero development costs) and design for fabrication via Flexible Fabrication (reduced production costs).
