Global P2P governance experiment in development.

Came across a mathematical equation in 1976 that suggests the possibility of a coordinated bartering and sharing network that could supplant nation states and corporations as the chief governing experiments on the planet.

Our small all volunteer team is now most seriously considering using Clojure to make the initial experiment. It will be a scaled anonymity P2P VPN that is essentially chained conferences, the demographics of which are patterned to provide comprehensive coverage of… Continue

Your P2P collaboration organization ideas sound interesting. Will check out your website.

I've got some python bookmarks that might be of use at http://del.icio.us/qopi/python :)
