This document discusses creating an open design definition through collaboration on GitHub. It provides background on open design and examples of open design applications. It then discusses using Git and GitHub to collaboratively develop a new open design definition. Participants are invited to join the opendesign mailing list and create a GitHub account to contribute to the definition by discussing issues. The goal is for designers of different kinds to build the definition together through this open source process.

1. Today, we'll build
something together:
an Open Design Definition.
This CC BY presentation is based on workshops done by Massimo Menichinelli

2. A Definition, not a license!
A community shared agreement about what is
Open Design and how it could developed
further, not a legal tool!

designers + makers of different kinds.

23. Open Definitions:
What are they?
Why should we have them?

24. Based on the Open Definition...

25. Also inspired by the Open
Source Hardware Definition,
first published in 2010...

26. … and the Open Source
Definition launched by the Open
Source Initiative ...

27. And, lastly, on the Open Design
Definition V. 0.2, which is
incomplete and not really open.

28. And now, Us.
Let's talk a bit about how to create our
new Open Design Definition.

29. Git: a distributed version
control system

30. A version control system?

31. A local version control system

32. A centralized version control system

33. Git: a distributed version
control system

34. Git: a command line tool

35. Git: GUIs also available
Source: http://git-scm.com/downloads/guis

36. Git: a good free book
Source: http://git-scm.com/book

37. Git: history of the file system

38. Git: commands & architecture

39. And finally, GitHub...
an interface to Git that builds
communities around code.

40. GitHub provides a set of free
tools for sharing code in an Open
Source way, and is the most
popular platform now ...

41. It's also used websites like Reddit,
and by coders themselves (like Linus
Torvalds), who make accounts,
comment and edit code together ...

42. And now it will be used by those of
you who want to get involved, to
build this Definition together as
designers of different kinds!

43. We'd love to hear your ideas,
criticisms and additions to this idea
in the collective discussion!

44. So, let's start by joining the
mailing list:
http://lists.okfn.org/mailman/listinfo/opendesign

45. And then let's create a GitHub
account:
https://github.com/

46. A free for open source account on
GitHub:
https://github.com/

47. You can use GitHub on a Mobile:
http://mobile.github.com/

48. You can use GitHub on a Mobile:
http://mobile.github.com/

49. Then tell us on the mailing list your
username, and we'll add you to the
organization on GitHub!

50. So that we can discuss together the
definition with issues on GitHub!
