Description

"If you didn’t already know, making Open Source Hardware comes with some challenges.

Issues ranging from… What is actually required for something to be considered Open Source Hardware?

To things more matter of fact like… Where am I supposed to host all the source files?

Well, instead of ignoring these and many other challenges the OSH Community wanted to face them head on and stir things up a bit – so they called a meeting of the minds.

A Documentation Jam to be more exact. The objective?

World domination! And of course starting a more formal conversation of the standards and best practices to help develop an environment in the Open Hardware space that continues to draw crowds.

Listen to the show with Simone Cicero [one of the Doc Jam Organizers] and learn more about what took place at the Open Source Hardware Documentation Jam."
