Sorry, don't get me wrong: But in order get get things fixed, they need to be pointed out (and that's the point of posting things to HN, right?).

I've worked on many open hardware projects the past 6 years. Documentation is a huge problem with the majority of open hardware projects.

So what makes a good open hardware documentation?

My first measure for that is "is the documentation good enough so I can acquire all the materials for building it on the other side of the world".

My second measure is "is the documentation good enough for getting me started without wasting a lot of money on trial and error".

My third measure is "is the software or other important information still up to date".
