OpenSourceEcology - Electric Car

Hey Guys!

Has anyone heard of the Open Source Ecology project?

The whole idea is to collaborate and create open source machines for the benefit of all society. Some friends and I visited the home base of the project this weekend. We were building up earthen bricks made on site from local materials with an open source brick compressor. It was pretty cool.

One of the machines on the list included in this project is an electric car. Any interest in helping them out by weighing in on how to build one?

Awesome! I tried to make an open source vehicle design website, no one ever visited... Not that I had the ability to keep it up 24/7 or advertise its existence.
Looking forward to seeing what this turns into.
