OHR Support

Hello everyone,

Next morning we'll be doing some server updates on the OHWR main server.

As usual, the maintenance job will happen next monday at 08:30 CEST. Our estimation is that it will take about 30 minutes to complete.

All of the ohwr.org subdomains & services (including svn.ohwr.org, lists.ohwr.org, and the git repositories) will be interrupted for a short while during that interval.

We apologize for any inconvenience this could cause.

Best regards,

The OHR-support Team

Hello everyone,

Next Monday morning we'll perform a maintenance update on the ohwr site.

On this update we'll add a new section to the top menu (Home, My Page, Projects, Companies) called "Licenses". It will include all licenses used in OHWR, including the CERN OHL license.

We'll also change the order in which the project tabs are presented (placing the "Wiki" tab in second place) and will darken the text tone a bit, to increase its legibility.

The upgrade process is scheduled to start at 08:30 CEST and is estimated to take around 20 minutes. The ohwr website will not be available during that time.

Thanks and regards,

The OHR-Support team

It will replace the current "default blue" one, and has been tested on several versions of Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome and Safari.

The Open Source Hardware Statement of Principles and Open Source Hardware Definition have hit 1.0.

Open source hardware is hardware whose design is made publicly available so that anyone can study, modify, distribute, make and sell the design or hardware based on that design. The hardware's source, the design from which it is made, is available in the preferred format for making modifications to it. Ideally, open source hardware uses readily-available components and materials, standard processes, open infrastructure, unrestricted content, and open-source design tools to maximize the ability of individuals to make and use hardware. Open source hardware gives people the freedom to control their technology while sharing knowledge and encouraging commerce through the open exchange of designs.
