Wikispeed Negotiations
Here is the info on wikispeed that you need.
http://opensourceecology.org/wiki/OSE-Wikispeed_Hybrid_Overview
Please spend 1 or 2 hours reviewing it. Then please send me a one paragraph brief on how and whom you will approach to negotiate a build of the OSE Wikispeed Hybrid. Please include the technical requirements that we discussed yesterday - in your brief - so I know that you understand them. And, if for some reason this doesn't work, we can outsource the brief to another negotiator.
As we go forward, we want to formalize the negotiation process and facilitate it - I see it fitting in the second green box in the Conceptual Development Process

Talks with Joe Justice about best plan for moving forward. Wikispeed builds most of the car at their facility with OSE help and extensive documentaion.
Costs and modules based on Wikispeed store below.
OSE would exclude engine, body and interior modules. (possibly add back a scaled down interior for about $1.5K)
So without engine (10K), body (5K) and maybe without interior (5K)... total is $7500.
Materials ordered by Wikispeed, based on costs below. Delivery estimated at 14 days. Then build 5-7 days.
Could work side-by-side with other Wikispeed work and could start in July, based on funds for ordering parts.

WIKISPEED will refund or replace or rework any defect of workmanship. WIKISPEED makes no guarantees about the performance or fitness of our products, they are prototypes made by folks who volunteer, on average, 2 hours a week. WIKISPEED does guarantee that everything we make is tested, and every part we make has a video of its manufacture and testing cycle posted publicly on Youtube. We trade promises for transparency.
WIKISPEED was originally formed in 2006 as a C. Coprotation in the United States, and has since filed for non-profit status and been joined by other non-profit and for-profit club and professional partnerships globally. We hope you think that is awesome.
