Dear all,
After many many months of discussion, writing, and debate, version 1.0
of the Open Source Hardware Definition and statement of principles has
been released!
This is BIG NEWS, for everyone who does open source hardware we
finally have something we can put on our pages, stamp on our boards
and say THIS is open source hardware! Of course this is just a first
step, and we look forward to working on next versions, but still, this
is a very important step for our community.
Unlike the Open Source Software Movement, the open hardware movement
didn't really have definitive licenses, definitions and a strong
foundation, and for the most part, the movement has been growing in an
ad-hoc way. A little less than a year ago, we invited a small group of
stakeholders to Eyebeam to discuss Open Hardware, and at the advice of
Creative Commons, we set out to create a community-driven definition
for Open Source Hardware. Since then, the discussion has grown
significantly and spread to forums, blogs, the Open Hardware Summit,
email lists, and the list of contributors expanded exponentially.
Today we announce a major milestone for the movement: the Open
Hardware Definition v1.0!
The Definition already has a bunch of endorsements. I would like to
thank every person that contributed, wrote, gave feedback, criticism,
etc.
PLEASE help by spreading the word, blogging, tweeting, writing,
endorsing, and applying! (http://www.openhardwaresummit.org/2011/02/10/open-hardware-definition-1-0-released/
)
The full definition is here: http://freedomdefined.org/OSHW. For
discussion, feedback, and contribution to v.1.1, please join the forum.
Cheers and congratulations to all
-ayah
