# Summary of #hplusroadmap IRC Log (April 25, 2011)

* Discussion about "gitduino," a git-based project hosting platform that uses a post-receive hook, where repositories include wikis that get compiled to HTML when updated, with potential options for anonymous edits versus the standard git workflow of forking and submitting pull requests.

* A user named CryptoQuick shared a document called "AuxRep" describing a replicative machine system using metals and minimal electronic parts such as motors.

* Kanzure mentioned being featured in a book called "Biopunk" and discussed challenges with 3D modeling, specifically issues with union operations between cones where slight coordinate adjustments were required for the operation to work properly.

* A non-transhumanist perspective on information overload was shared via an NPR article titled "The Sad, Beautiful Fact That We're All Going To Miss Almost Everything," prompting discussion about the article's content versus its title.

* Weather warnings were shared about a severe storm system that had potentially produced an F5 tornado that "wiped a town off the map" in Arkansas, with concerns about the storm's path toward another user's location.

* Brief mention of basalt fiber technology (referred to as "melting rock and centrifuging it into fibers"), though the conversation was cut short.
