Re: [ox-en] reprap, exploitation, free goods etc



There is also a Finnish Open Design e-car project: http://www.sahkoautot.fi/

The first protos are being built right now, and first customer deliveries are planned for next winter. The idea is to buy old Toyota Corollas from Germany and retrofit them with electric motors. The design is open, so anyone can do the conversion themselves and there is also a company that is willing to do it if a batch of 500 customers commit themselves.

This is just another "Open Design" project.  There is no intention of
making the factory available "at cost" to the consumers or to
potential consumers.

The act of creating INSTANCES of the car is completely ignored.  We
need "Free as in Freedom" physical production, not just plans.

Graham,

http://www.p2pfoundation.net/C%2Cmm%2Cn

I  remember hearing once that the dutch open source car project C,mm,n could
be manufactured as early as 2011

But in the article, Bruce Perens says it is decades away.

Any commentary, both concretely on the common car, but more generally a
timeline of open hardware on a more general scale, would be of great
interest,

Michel
