Namaste
My ongoing intention to help kick-start an Anonymous Decentralized Fractal Democracy ( #ADFD ) system, includes quite a lot of reading & thinking.
Here are links (and quotes from) some of what i've read today (not all governance related):
Free and Open Source Governance Collection.
An indexed collection of governance documents from Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) projects.
A tool for people wishing to learn more about governance in FOSS.

FOSS emerges as a powerful alternative to proprietary software as it allows for greater transparency, security, increased collaboration, and long-term sustainability.
Patents create barriers to innovation by granting exclusive rights to ideas built on existing knowledge, stifling the open exchange of information that FOSS promotes.

“For everyone to have the opportunity to be involved in a given group and to participate in its activities the structure must be explicit, not implicit. The rules of decision-making must be open and available to everyone, and this can happen only if they are formalized.” (Jo Freeman, “The Tyranny of Structurelessness”)

Organic governments impose consensus. From a single point of view in autocracies. By codifying the most broadly acceptable average of views in democracies. We communicate at the speed of light. Data is shared between geth. All viewpoints are considered. Consensus is achieved as data is disseminated.

Free (pdf diwnload) of monthly newspaper sharing "Uncensored Truth". i've just skimmed it so far & at first glance it looks very good

What if our online communities had the tools to practice a fuller range of self-organized possibilities?
We are part of a network called the Metagovernance Project, which is experimenting with building such tools. "Modular Politics" is a proposal we developed that outlines basic principles for online governance tools, such as:
Modularity: Platform operators and community members should have the ability to construct systems by creating, importing, and arranging composable parts together as a coherent whole.
Expressiveness: The governance layer should be able to implement as wide a range of processes as possible.
Portability: Governance tools developed for one platform should be portable to another platform for reuse and adaptation.
Interoperability: Governance systems operating on different platforms and protocols should have the ability to interact with each other, sharing data and influencing each other’s processes.
We decided to try implementing Modular Politics in a place where people are already meeting as peers, on their own terms: Minetest, an open-source, community-created, world-building game. It resembles the more popular, Microsoft-owned game Minecraft.

i just finished reading the whitepaper for #Spacecoin. It looks pretty good, but #governance needs improving to increase #decentralization, AND i'm not sure how these low orbit satellites affect human and planet health. i may research this.
