My first impression there is much redundancy and looking at the dates and frequency a page is updated helps me decide to study it or keep scanning. The date the page was last edited is found by opening the history tab for that page. I find benefit in what last happened, what the first efforts were and who was involved, when. To start, the Media:Global Village Construction Set page has an excellent description of the OSE Mission and the Machine Index provides enough meat to be encouraging. These two pages, MGVCS amd Index combined into one page might be a excellent home page for OSE. I have studied OSE progress, concepts and searched for how others make some of these machines. 1- the videos provide excellent insight, 2- the I've found when joining a collaborative effort, that what I think to be my best ideas and experiences are as strange to them as theirs sometimes are to me. To get over this hump, I try to 1- study what they have done 2- how they have done it 3- what they say they intend to do and then offer some of my thoughts as possibilities to consider and adopt IF they find them to be acceptable and see a transition path. Also, when I offer a suggestion it means I am available to help carry that change forward and probably have the experience to be able to help smooth the way. Mostly I like to simplify things, reduce part counts, improve reliability, efficiency, etc. It seems that MicroHouse has been the focus for a couple of years where OEB and Tractor are getting attention this Spring 2015. - John S

You do realize that this is a totally retarded way of organizing the documentation for the CEB press?

It would be much easier to just keep all this stuff in a git repository w/ README files, etc. This takes care of all versioning, etc. You can branch stuff off for various versions of the CEB or whatever. Then if someone wants to build a CEB press, you just give them git url.

should we make all this into a torrent file? --Dorkmo (talk) 22:03, 13 January 2013 (CET)
