Cardinal Rules -

1. Log all your work. Start with stubs.

• Scope of work and goals
• Such as Tractor Countdown - for a video script. Maybe start with a video script, then reify it: Extreme Video Script
• Expansion into construction of Seed Home?
• Facility, equipment, prototyping capacity assessment
• CEB Press interest?
• Stainless steel hydraulics.
• Leadership for all of Africa - beginning to train others?
• Lesego Long Term Vision - think about it seriously. Think aspirationally about big vision, and don't be stopped by practality. At the quarter review mark - revisit this - and see if you want to update or change.
• Lesego Roadmap - see Critical Path and OSE Roadmap.
• Lesego Critical Path.
• Lesego Business Plan.
• Lesego Pitch

Culture

• Ubuntu - DIT
• Self-Determination - true point of right livelihood is bringing everyone up.
• Design Rationale logging - through Visual Part History. See D3D_Universal_v20.07_3D_CAD peg as a great example.

Tech Expectations

• D3D Genealogy - all of those have been built, but we are perfecting them.
• Iterations are not just for any product, but the best product in the world for lifetime design (serviceability), modularity, scalability, fast build, low cost, high performance
• OSE Chapters do not come to a finished product. It is co-development collaboration.
• We currently sell a couple printers per month.
• Video production - getting up and running with OSE Film Studio
