Overview

The True Fans Hangouts offer broad-scale discussion on the state of the world as seen through the eyes of open source development. Open source means unbridled transparency, and sharing of information, and collaboration.

OSE's goal is to create the open source economy. The current economy appears to be about $100T total. Our model of transformation calls for a fraction of this economy turning into the open source economy - about 5%, at which point, either a cascade of further open source culture ensues to create a predominantly open source economy - or the world collapses as non-regenerative practice continues with events like topsoil loss, or continued growth of wealth disparity.

Is open source synonymous with life, as opposed to demise? The specific feature of interest in open source is the sharing of knowledge - which appears to be the most secure route to unleashed innovation and freedom.
