About

The Genealogy is a listed history of projects or versions upon which the current project builds. Projects other than OSE can be included here - since all open source work should be derived from existing work. The genealogy informs a Roadmap for future work. When creating a new version, add that to the genealogy. If a genealogy does not exist yet (for example if only one version exists), create the genealogy for that project. See Wiki Taxonomy. To start a new development project, the official wiki templates used are [[Template:dev+]] and [[Template:Enterprise]]

Howto

To understand how genealogies are named - one must understand the concept of Every Build is a Fork. Note also - that each product may have different models. A genealogy may be set up for each product. If so, the number of documented products (and their versions) is larger than the number of documented models. For example, Rosebud 3 may be the 4th iteration of the Seed Eco-Home - where the Seed Eco-Home is the main product, with various sub-models. Further - the Seed Eco-Home is the new colloquial name for the Microhouse, since the Seed Eco-Home is a much more descriptive term for how we are implementing the Microhouse builds.
