Thanks. A couple resources to maybe add:

http://www.slate.com/articles/technology/future_tense/2017/1... (Discussed here: https://science.slashdot.org/story/17/12/14/1639204/space-is... )

Definitely would encourage you to keep going with this to form a supportive community of interested people.

Some ideas on making groups work well that I've collected (often easier said then done): https://github.com/pdfernhout/High-Performance-Organizations...

A group I was involved in from 2008: http://www.openvirgle.net/

I had some other links here (an archive of the OpenVigle wiki from 2008) but some are out-of-date: http://oscomak.net/wiki/Main_Page

Another group maybe of interest (but no recent posts): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenLuna

I'd encourage you to explore links with the maker movement. That is sort of what became of the 2008 OpenVirgle effort -- at that time, it seemed to make more sense to think about the early maker movement and "Open Manufacturing" because increasing that capacity was a big win for everyone in both the short-term on Earth and long term in space. http://openmanufacturing.net/ https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openmanufacturing
