			#'''Long Haul''' - OSE is in it for the long haul on the time scale of decades. It may take 2 decades for the open source economy to be fully established. What does it mean? It means 50 GVCS technologies are complete, and due to their generative nature - provide the backbone of a parallel economy - the open source economy. The goal of OSE is to contribute to 2% of the world's economy, or about $1T per annum, in terms of value generated from open source knowhow as organized by OSE. So when you contribute to the project, are you considering what your work accomplishes in the long term? And if you have, how is your work relevant to immediate milestones along the rollout plan?
