Permaculture

 * over 200k people worldwide are trained in permaculture and need open sourced ecological technologies to employ in their systems. OSE can provide a framework for collaborative permaculture technology innovation. I've spoken with many permaculturists who are looking for online collaborative spaces to share species lists, parts and element designs. speak with permaculture magazines about an article on OSE as a permaculture technology innovation network for element design.
