Building an Open Source Village - we need your help!
summary
Building a network of real, on-the-ground villages in China (first node with Ant Way, nodes near Xi'an and Guangxi) that combine a FabLab with CNCs, laser cutters, 3D printers and open designs so houses can be cut from WikiHouse CAD files and assembled like IKEA; version 1.0 mixes closed and open systems, then replaces major closed pieces in 2.0+; tests include a shower loop (claims up to 10 L saved per shower) and OpenEnergyMonitor, with a Red Hat–style revenue model selling services and deployment support.
