    Thanks Joshua for the advises.<br>
    My decision so far is I'll do a blog dedicated to the project in
    spanish (as an entry level repository and divulgation step), and
    then link to Appropedia + write articles on appropedia, and upload
    to Github.<br>

          <div>When you OS a project you want to put it in the highest
            traffic site for the specific kind of project.<br>
          </div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          I would categorize an OS bicycle trailer as open source
          appropriate technology -- and for that kind of technology the
          best current location I am aware of is <a
            moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://www.appropedia.org/">http://www.appropedia.org/</a><br>
          <br>
        </div>
        <div>It is a wiki specializing in collaborative solutions in
          sustainability, appropriate technology and poverty reduction.
          The wiki markup is the same as wikipedia - so it is fairly
          easy to learn. Appropedia can only take certain kinds of CAD
          files.<br>
          <br>
          The solution we use is to do the splash page with the main
          easily edited content (and a discussion tab) on Appropedia
          then link back to CAD content on github if you are using a
          format Appropedia does not take. You can also post it on your
          own website then link back to Appropedia. Make sure to tag the
          page with all of the categories your design fits into (e.g.
          transportation) - then appropedians will get it spread all
          over. The default license is cc-by-sa.<br>
          <br>
        </div>
        <div>When you post it make sure to include<br>
        </div>
        <div>- a full bill of materials - ideally with sources of parts
          and sub and total costs<br>
        </div>
        <div>- the CAD designs<br>
        </div>
        <div>- tools necessary to fabricate<br>
        </div>
        <div>- basic instructions for assembly/fabrication (if you can
          do pictures or video for this it would be ideal<br>
        </div>
        <div>- and a nice picture.video of the final product<br>
          <br>
        </div>
        <div>Then if you have time <br>
        </div>
        <div>- skills needed<br>
        </div>
        <div>- time to complete<br>
        </div>
        <div>- instructions with no words<br>
          <br>
          The documentation is a bear and few people do a really nice
          job -- but remember the easier it is for people to replicate
          and use your work - the more people will do so - and the more
          likely you will get feedback and improvements in the design.<br>
          <br>
        </div>
        <div>Other places you may want to consider are:<br>
        </div>
        <div>- check Open Source Ecology and see if they would be
          interested<br>
        </div>
        <div>- Engineering for Change<br>
          <br>
          Thingiverse is primarily for 3d printable designs -- and
          recently changed its licensing agreement - there is a main one
          with Makerbot which is actually pretty ugly and then you can
          choose an open sub license. For now they are behaving as good
          stewards, but the language in the main agreement means your
          tech only remains open if they want it to. You will have to
          decide for yourself what you are comfortable with.<br>
