Hi all, A friend and I have long been interested in the idea of 'open hardware'. I wondered whether anyone on the list knew about any legal work in this area. Apart from using open licenses for copyrightable aspects of a design, blueprint, procedure (text, images etc.) - what other legal issues are there?
I've started adding relevant links at: http://okfn.org/wiki/OpenHardware Do people think that the OKF could have a role to play in this area? E.g. in supporting an 'open hardware definition' - or similar? I'm going to start contacting relevant groups and mailing lists over the next few weeks - as soon as I get time! Warm regards, Jonathan _______________________________________________ okfn-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.okfn.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/okfn-discuss
