I think the male/female ratio in open hardware is even worse than in open software, indeed :-) I cannot add much to the Arduino side, it inspired us too but then we took it into a more radical direction: copyleft hardware (not open hardware). copyleft hardware is where the manufacturer pledges to not build any secrets into the hardware. no trade secrets, no copyright (only copyleft), no patents. Our homepage is www.qi-hardware.com, first product a little pocket-size computer, Ben NanoNote (nanonote.cc). If you don't have enough links yet, check out the first copyleft computer we are working on now - booting from an FPGA - Milkymist One (en.qi-hardware.com/wiki/Milkymist_One), using the GPL'ed SoC www.milkymist.org Does any of this make sense to you? Any aspect of it we could make an article out of? You can delete the above if you think it's spam, and just cut & paste this: We love Arduino - great article, keep it up! :-) Wolfgang Richard,
