self-replicating
open-source, community project
developed on its wiki and through its mailing list
Mendel is RepRap v.2; Darwin was v.1
In most cases it is environmentally beneficial to locally manufacture plastic products with a RepRap than to manufacture and ship them conventionally. See : Environmental impacts of distributed manufacturing from 3-D printing

Reprap.org is a community project, which means you are welcome to edit most pages on their site community portal and New Development pages have more information on how to get involved.
