If a market is willing to pay enough to support and grow the project, it can be done. Are there potential partners and large scale consumers for "top security through total transparency" to make an open hardware project viable today? rysiek: Yes. And there are ways to create a market like that, albeit it takes time. I haven't looked at how the Black Phone folks are doing lately, but that looks like the kind of product line where open hardware might find its first viable home. rysiek: Funny you should ask: http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/2402536/us-department-of-defence-ad...

So is anyone working on building an 'openfab' or is it such a big task that everyone just backs away in horror? :D doctor: The closest I know to that is Jeri Ellsworth, who's at the point of fabbing her own discrete transistors in a homebrew semiconductor foundry. If she's still working on this project, she's probably a bit closer but I haven't spoken to her about it.
