Web site promoting open hardware?

[jbl2024]

Hello,
we, at Bearstech, are currently working on such initiative. The main
goal is to promote hackable devices and create a strong community around
this idea.

The main features will be :
 * promote open source and hackable devices
 * create and manage projects which use such devices (a bit like
sourceforge but for hardware hacking)
 * link people between them and promote hackable events


Regards,
Jérôme Blondon.
