Marcin Jakubowsky (Open Source Ecology / Global Village Construction Set) 
and I
(Open Source Everything Manifesto) have come together to conceptualize a 
new
conference on Open Source Everything to be held in NYC 7-11 December 2015.
Tuesday 8 December is Hardware day. In addition to speakers (plenary, 
break-out,
and open space) we have tons of room for tables (going for at least 100) 
and
posters. An Open Source Everything Handbook 1.0 book/wiki is planned as an 
out
come of the event, as a living document. Our strategic intent is to 
facilitate
cross-fertilization across all the opens and to get more people to realize 
that
-- to take one example -- Open Data without open everything else is simply 
a
gift to vendors of proprietary hardware and software and does NOT further 
the
commons or the public interest to the fullest extent possible.

A pre-public version of the website is at ose-21.org [http://ose-21.org] . 
With this email I am seeking OSHWA member nominations for speakers, tables,
and posters as well as Goodie Bag items (anyone volunteering to offer 
something,
think in terms of 400-800). Google Docs for each are supposed to appear on 
the
Nominations page shortly, but I welcome direct emails to me with title,
paragraph, and link in the interim and as a safety measure.

My intent is to go public and start opening registrations in early June but 
I
wanted to start some outreach to those that have done so much within 
specific
verticals such as hardware and software.

Thank you for taking a moment to visit ose-21.org [http://ose-21.org] and 
giving us your ideas and nominations.
