Next week (16.-22. April) I will go to the north west part of Germany in Aachen, Bonn, Köln and possibly others to meet with different people and organizations who are doing any of the following:
- want or are developing sustainable technologies for the people in the sectors: agriculture, house building, renewable energy, transport, manufacturing
- engineers and students willing to engage in open source hardware
- professors willing to engage in open source hardware
- follow open source principles
- retired professionals willing to develop technologies for the people
- want to strengthen the local economy
- want to create jobs for their community
- engaged in sustainability and ecology projects
- engaged in open democratic associations. We need legal advice how to create an open scalable OSE Germany association. More about that in the next blog post.
- with experience in natural building (earth and strawbales) in Germany
- want to spread about OSE in their region and form local groups
- project managers willing to engage in OSE Germany
- networkers
- forming or existing communities living in a sustainable way
- subject matter experts on some of the GVCS technologies: http://opensourceecology.org/gvcs.php
