Knowledge, Learning, Community
Open hardware is a good idea. But what is it? Each of us may have an intuitive understanding, but something more concrete is needed. As of today, a definition now exists. "Open Source Hardware (OSHW) is a term for tangible artifacts -- machines, devices, or other physical things -- whose design has been released to the public in such a way that anyone can make, modify, distribute, and use those things." The rest of definition is available here. Via Open Hardware Summit.
