WORK ETHIC REQUIREMENTS
# Work should be done transparently, allowing all project contributors to provide feedback and to contribute.
# Contributions without proper documentation are invalid.
# Documentation should be created progressively, during every work session, not at the end of a task.
# This task cannot be monopolized by any contributor, it is open to participation.
# Number of man-hours and budget are fixed. If more time is spent than planned and money to be paid surpasses the allocated budget, contributors involved in this task split the allocated budget in proportion to everyone's contribution.
# Contributions that do not reflect good work, that are inflated, or that are not properly documented can be redflagged by any contributor in this project, which can lead to the invalidation of the contribution. Repetitively misrepresenting work in logged contributions can lead to expulsion from project.
Documentation is done in the Design doc.

Diigo must be used for information mining, using the tag leaves_blender

Processed Bruce's mined info from his doc, into the Deliverables work, structured information.
Information mining, delineating conceptual space, pile data in this doc.

Added a few organisations and documents to Diigo
Met a local artisan in Njombe (Tanzania) who can provide design considerations.
Explored concepts for shredding and squeezing leaves. Captured some examples of devices that instantiate these concepts in the Deliverables doc. Shared ideas with Tibi.
Design, budget of 2,250$
DESIGN REQUIREMENTS
Easily replicable design with stock components and minimal use of custom parts (unless they can be digitally fabricated with a RepRap class 3-D printer or CNC mill –e.g. limit to what is found in most fab labs and avoid high energy processes and a skilled machinist). The designers should seek to minimize cost and complexity while keeping throughput high (continuous if possible).
