Issue dossier
The postmortem says source code and Gerbers were published, but a current public-source check found the referenced GitHub trail unavailable while the Hackaday.io file area still exposes only VRML/SVG/DXF model files.
A linkable camp-impact record with badge context, severity, evidence confidence, and source notes.
