    FoldaRap P2P Edition

    The most interesting reward of this campaign, also probably the quickest way to have your kit!

    All you need to build the lastest version of the FoldaRap, excepted the printed parts.
    Find a local reprapper to add them to your kit !

    (hint : with probably more than 40 000 machines in the wild, there must be one near you, or we can still have them printed separately)

Say Hello to Open Edge :D

Say Hello to Open Edge :D

Tout juste rentré de Rome il y a quelques jours, en plein dans la Fête de la Science à présent... mais lundi soir j'ai enfin pu signer les statuts de Open Edge !!

http://wiki.fablab.is/wiki/OpenEdge/fr

Ne pouvant continuer en temps que auto-entrepreneur, il était nécessaire de changer de forme juridique. Il nous aura fallut plusieurs mois pour enfin y arriver (rhaa les formalités administratives...), mais tout sera pour le mieux :)
Le plus frustrant c'est qu'il fallait transférer les fonds sur un compte le temps que la création soit validée, et pendant ce temps l'argent est bloqué. Je ne pouvais plus rien acheter, par exemple de la courroie crantée qui venait à manquer...

J'espère que tout pourra se terminer bientôt, on va embaucher une personne d'ici la fin du mois pour aider et sans doute une 2ème d'ici la fin de l'année.

Bref, les choses avancent !

Back from Rome few days ago, in the middle of the Science Faire now... but on monday night we could sign the contract for the creation of Open Edge !!

http://wiki.fablab.is/wiki/OpenEdge

As I couldn't continue as a single entrepreneur, I needed to switch to a more classical form of entreprise. It took months to get there (I hate administrative papers, it remind me of this question on Quora : http://www.quora.com/Engineering-Management/Why-are-software-development-task-estimations-regularly-off-by-a-factor-of-2-3), but it will be all for the better :)
One of the thing that was slowing us is that I needed to transfert the money to the company account, and it was blocked until the creation is validated. So I couldn't order components, like timing belts to refill my previous stock...

We are hiring our first employee at the end of the month, and probably a second before the end of the year.

Things are going forward !

Congratulations!

Hint - That will shorten our delivery delay?
