Collaborative Waste

• By [1] - 12 issues of open source - https://opensource.com/life/14/6/12-challenges-open-source-projects

Solutions

1. Establishing a standard for code submissions
2. requiring acceptance of a common license
3. implementing peer review are three ways in which good open source projects help to mitigate the risk of problematic code.
   1. For HeroX - update videos for contributions. Rewarding your contributions. You MUST inform people of your work, and allow them to contribute

Scope Solutions

1. Modular breakdown to as many small pieces as possible
2. Doing critical contributions only, not derivative ones, and phasing progress. For ex, CAD is king as the deliverable; an exploded part diagram may be in a subsequent phase (User Manual Phase).

Direction Solutions

1. Build it and show us the data puts a quick resulution of design debate

Judging

• Judging and peer review can be combined. You get rewarded for working on winning versions. This forces you to contribute to something that you deem worthy - which is a form of peer review. If you work on a dead end, sorry but no cigar.
