DESCRIPTION:There are people who get really excited about building hardwa
 re and Open Source.  There are a few holes in the stack\, and as a commu
 nity we can get started on fundamental tools that will make things easie
 r for all of us.  Some topics that came up in the session on Saturday.&#
 13\;\n&#13\;\nThe tools for programming FPGA's are all proprietary let's
  design an open source FPGA\, most of the patents are running out soon.&
 #13\;\n&#13\;\nThere are open source 3d modeling tools\, but will they t
 ell you where the center of gravity of your amature rocket is?  That's a
 n important thing to know when it passes mach 1.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nRadio is
  awesome.  &#13\;\n&#13\;\nLook for an &quot\;Art of Community&quot\; bo
 ok\, or a tshirt that says &quot\;free as in freedom&quot\; amongst the 
 dorkbot crowd to find the discussion.  Don't worry if you miss this meet
 ing there isn't even a listserv up yet it's a meeting of convenience as 
 many of the people from Saturday's discussion are going to be at DorkBot
  anyways.  \n\nTags: hardware\, fpga\, rockets\, radio\, open source\n\n
