Re: [DIYbio] Status/purpose of biohacklabs.org?

A valuable resource but a but walled-gardeney, being awkward to join and contribute towards.

synbio.info is a shiny new (not wikimedia, I think) wiki for Synbio and already has some nice content including a map drawn from SynbioProject, IIRC. Might we worth a play around.

Hi all,
At some point in the past, at some DIYBio meeting or other, it was mooted
that a general biohacker's wiki would be useful.
Thus, I believe, http://www.biohacklabs.org was set up.

I have some content that I would like to put up there since it is content
that would benefit from edits and additions from anyone involved in DIYBio.
Is biohacklabs.org a good place to put this and are there others that would
like to add content to the site?

It currently seems a bit dead - presumably because the signup is broken and
you never get sent the password for an account you create.

If whoever is in charge of the site is able to fix this, should the
community start putting information up there about protocols, projects etc
that is useful outside each particular space's own wiki or should we just be
putting things on openwetware?

I say this because lots of useful information about particular DIY
protocols, equipment, etc seems to be spread across the internet with very
little effort at collation. I think collation in the form of a community
wide wiki (i.e. biohacklabs.org) could be a great asset, especially for
those new to DIYBio.

Note: I'm not saying that everyone needs to use a centralised wiki for
everything, but a page about different protocols for homemade/cheap growth
media production which links to the various blog posts and instructables
could be a valuable starting point for people.
