just a strange name. I don't think Ohanda should exercise some kind of
content control over registered products, as Apple infamously does. Just
checking that they fulfill the formal conditions for registering (real open
hardware) should be sufficient. On that note, however, I'm not sure the
product qualifies, as it just seems to be a recipe, not an actual, physical
product.

Ohanda is about products with voluntarily register with Ohanda and agree to
place the logo on manufactured products, therefore it will always be smaller
than product collections that don't require any kind of "opt-in" from the
producers. Below I forward the newest update re the state of Ohanda, by
Juergen Neumann.

Best regards
	Christian

Dear all,

though the list has been quite silent for the passed months, there are
some interesting updates which I would like to share with you today:


1. New website

Thanks to Tuomo and Rolf the new website is almost ready for launch. You
can have a recent preview at http://ohanda.vzsze.de/

We will try to shift all content until the end of next week so that we
can go online latest by the end of May. The wiki will of course stay in
place as an additional ressource.

It's based on drupal and this will just be Version 0.1. More features
can be added over time. All feedback is welcome to develop it further!


2. DMY 2011 - http://dmy-berlin.com/

With many thanks for Juha Huuskonen (pixelache.fi) OHANDA will have it's
own stand at DMY in Berlin this year. We will also be participating in
the book launch of OPEN DESIGN NOW! in which OHANDA has it's own
chapter.
http://www.premsela.org/en/peoples-republic_1/open-design-now_1/

Also we still hope to get XiVO join us at DMY.


3. OKcon 2011 - http://okcon.org/2011

OHANDA will be holding a panel, a presentation and a workshop at OKcon
2011. Together with Alison Powell, Massimo Menichinelli and Dannie Jost
we will discuss the potential impact and needed actions of establishing
an international private standard for open source hardware. In an extra
workshop we will practically discuss the tasks and will work on getting
things of the ground.

We would be very happy to see more people joining us in Berlin this
summer!


4. http://oshwcon.org/en

I am very interrested in this conference of course and think I will go
there. Are there any others on the list who would also want to join?


That's it for today. Hope to hear some good news from you other poeple
on the list, too! :)

And spread the word !!!

Greets,

JuergeN
