[Stoves] Akha clay and steel TLUD in Bangladesh

[Paul Anderson]

Rebecca, Jed, Teddy and others,

There is activity and progress with the clay and steel TLUD stove called 
Akha, being made in Bangladesh by Mahbubul Islam, with assistance from 
Julien Winter of Canada.  It is a project of the Bangladesh Biochar 
Initiative (BBI), so I am including the Biochar Listserv to also receive 
this message.   Mahbubul and Julien will report on that work when they 
are ready, and I can briefly update a bit about it at ETHOS at my 
Saturday evening session.

For now I want to see if we can organize for an informal discussion (not 
a scheduled presentation) of the Akha stove at the ETHOS conference.  
Anyone interested in having clay be the major building material of TLUD 
cookstoves is welcome to join us.   I think that Rebecca, Jed and I will 
all be there.   Anyone else interested and will be at ETHOS?   Please 
let us know.    If interested (to the point of making and testing, not 
just currious interest) but not attending ETHOS, also please let us 
know, in case we develop some type of working group.

Paul
