Agreed, except that I would permute them a bit. That is: - Generally promote open hardware as an important paradigm shift in the IT industry. - Develop specifications and standards for open hardware systems. - Act as an elected community representative body that makes various kinds of decisions regard to open hardware development strategy. - Develop training materials and educate people in hardware design methodologies. - Use donations to subsidize developers who need hardware in order to participate in open hardware projects. This way, the overarching goal is first, followed by more specific activities that the OHF will undertake to achieve that goal. Actually, looking at it again, "that makes various kinds of decisions [with] regard to open hardware development strategy" is rather vague. Can we work out a more precise description of what we really mean here? Lourens
