Recently, the project has been growing significantly, so standards definition is gaining in importance.

I would like to propose the following strategy for replication/branding/identity for open hardware development:

  • Get advice from flossfoundations.org as the closest allied organization for identity/standards creation,
  • Integrate with GitHub as a hardware repository for commits, including developing web-3D viewing and 3D diffs for hardware designs
  • Evolve development standards to these required elements:

1. SEBD, Conceptual Drawings, Design Rationale, Fabrication Procedure, Fabrication Drawings, BOM, Sourcing, CAD, Exploded Part Diagram, CAM files, Toolchain Specifications, Instructional Video, Test Results - to GitHub repository. Official commits approved by Project Leaders and Project Director. Project Curator approves all Project Leaders 2. Process: OSE Spec Review - scoring a particular approach, after clarifying score methodology applied to a particular product, Testing, Recruiting 3.

OSE License Strategy 1. No restrictions on use 2. OSE Label - only to those who follow OSE Specifications and share 3. OSE trademarked - for OSE Label 4. OSE License - not legal but effectively legal 5. Free to produce commercially under own label, with attribution 6. 5% tithe to produce commercially under OSE Label 7. Fabricator certification required to produce under OSE Label 8. Developers contribute to
