Hi All,
Just a heads up that this year Open Source Hardware Camp will be taking place over the weekend of Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th September, returning to the Birchliffe Centre where we hosted OSHCamp back in 2012.
Since we were last there the Birchcliffe has been subject to extensive renovation, but still retains most of the pretty cool features of an old Methodist Chapel. The main differences being that it's been smartened up somewhat, is in a much better state of repair and has more effective heating etc.
Those who came along in 2012 may recall that there is a hostel adjoined to the Birchcliffe, with both shared dorms and private rooms. If you're thinking of coming along this year and would like to stay there, it's advisable to book early as rooms tend to go fast.

The plan is once again to have up to 12-13 talks on the Saturday and 6-8 workshops on the Sunday. A call for participation will go out in Feb or early March, but suggestions and offers for talks and workshops are very much welcome before then!
