• Would you use this?
  • In which situations?
  • How can we make it better for you?
  • Does our method meet your expectation from the previously presented vision?
• For the curated dataset: Which should be the next OSH we track?
• For production metadata: Are you willing to give input?

Daniel: can i submit a project from my personal web site? (after creating a toml?)

Mario: other platforms may not bother to implement an API for LOSH

Daniel: (automatically) notify people when they missed essential fields to fill out (and when it's not open source)

[nielek2]

is there versioning as fields?

[moedn]

@nielek2 yes there is. I take this as a request for clarification :)

When the version in the version field is changed, this triggers the crawler (it will recognise it as an actual new version of the hardware). Without getting into detail here (seems like I have to clarify it somewhere in written form anyway), there are 3 main reasons for it:

1. less dependency on specific APIs (such as GitHub; WIF e.g. doesn't have any versioning yet; so does(n't) OSHWA)
2. hardware developers using git rarely use version tags (#messy-documentation)
3. we don't want to track 'work in progress' on Wikibase, but rather (stable) releases/versions/snapshots of OSH others can refer to

Entscheidungskriterien für OSH:

• Art der Anwendung (passt der Anwendungsfall?)
• Dringlichkeit der Anwendung
• geplante Dauer der Anwendung
• positive Bewertung (Anzahl likes, Aufrufe)
• Referenzen des Erfinders (andere Projekte im Anwendungsbereich)
• Lizenz (non-commercial geht nicht, Notfalls per re-engineering)
• Einschätzung der Nachbaubarkeit + Aufwandseinschätzung
• Pluspunkte: Instructables (Bauanleitungen), Thingiverse (Source-Files), YouTube-Videos (= verifizierte Anwendung) oder eigene Projekseite; gibt Indizien auf:
  • Qualität des Projekts (Aufwand bei der Dokumentationsverbreitung gibt Hinweise auf die Ernsthaftigkeit des Projekts)
  • Historie: Iterationen vorhanden?
  • Erfinder kontaktierbar
  • Community existent
  • genügend Infos zum Nachbau
• Dateiformate:
  • FreeCAD &/ OpenCAD super! aber selten
• Dependencies; lokale Verfügbarkeit & Kosten notwendiger 3rd party Module
• Einhaltung regionaler Standards
  • mechanische Schnittstellen, bspw. Dosendurchmesser in diesem Projekt
  • imperiale Maßeinheiten
• Aktualität (Erstellungsdatum & last updated)
