Open source inspiration

Part of the inspiration for engineering projects ought to be to spread ideas and knowledge. In class, we learned that MIT has followed through on an initiative to make all of their lessons available on line for anyone to access. We think that this sharing of information should accompany any significant project. Therefore, as we research and learn about the technology and software that we will use for our device, we will make an effort to publish what we learn on line, where it is easily accessible. One goal we have is to create a tutorial for the Gantt software. This will be useful to spread the knowledge of how to use the software not only within our group, but also around the world. We want to make a commitment to spreading information.

This blog, itself, is just another example of sharing our ideas.
