I love that it's not about goverments but governance. Open Source projects can use this. Apartment buildings.
Obviously getting modern tools to shitty politicians is always going to be the focus with things like DemocracyOS, but I'm really excited to see this for deciding stuff on the small communities I'm a part of.
The one weird thing is that they're non-profit, open source. I hope they survive on that model. Is it only donations?
- piamancini 12y agoHi! We are trying to get enough philanthropic seed funding to find a sustainable model. Maybe OS SAS, or github's: free as long as it's open. For the moment it's all grants.
- santisiri 12y agoWe believe that you cannot put a price tag on the right to participate. So the nonprofit is a fundamental first step in our mission. We want to figure a self-sustainable model, donations can only get you that far. The task ahead of us is a big one: we want to build governance for the internet society.
