Notes on Wiki Infrastructure for Open Engineering

Marcin's comments:

  • We need: a Platform for Open Engineering
  • Marcin's personal attempt: openfarmtech.org - under Development Template.
    • However, this has a particular spec for its open engineering - it it open engineering + OSE Specifications (see Main Page)
  • Once a better infrastructure for projects exists at Appropedia, then we could consider using it for some technical developments.
  • Summary: unless someone can show me a better development platform, the Development Template is good enough for now. It embodies OSE Spec.

Critical additional comment:

  • OSE adds value in that (1) attempts open engineering, (2) does so according to a very unique goal - replicable villages with particular attributes as described on the Main Page
  • It is the addition of value according to a unique goal that adds value to the open engineering itself. It is what drives the specifications for open engineering.
  • I don't think one would come up with an option for creating OSE's replicable village if one just took a number of technologies and put them together. The OSE Specification (look on Main Page) is a glue for the type of engineering that goes on. Without that glue, you'd never arrive at the type of engineering proposed.
