Immersion Program Goals
From Open Source Ecology
Goals
- Develop a Scalable and Replicable Model for Bootstrapped Growth of Ethical, Economically-Significant Organizations - OSE would like to hire addition developers as needed, for which a scalable funding mechanism is required.
- To open access to technology to everyone.
- To create a world-class open source product development process. All OSE Fellows are to be involved in collaboration architecture development. Thus, the goal of any 1 month+ long training program is to include training in collaboration ecology, collaboration task breakdown - with clear infrastructure for contributing to the development process. Fellows contribute to continuous improvement, using simple tools: wiki, templates, and modular embedding - and eventually semantic wiki - after templates are maxed out. Eventually, we want to establish peerless infrastructure for wiki and apps - like Serverless - but with peers. That means peers provide the synching infrastructure, as clients and servers. This is the ultimate distributed way to do a small state republic.
- To democratize product design and to distribute production.. We feel that everyone has the capacity to be a designer and builder, and we help bring out these skills in people as a prerequisite for a democratic society.
- To develop open source, appropriate technology. We believe that any technology can be appropriate, if used wisely.
- To develop simple processes. For wide participation and democratization of product design - it is important for the development process to b accessible and simple - favoring simplicity over complexity for the sake of wider participation.
- To promote psychological integration. This applies to Fellows and all people that we work with. Inappropriate technology has disinegrated and crushed cultures, and we are interested in regaining our nature as Integrated Humans.
- To promote freedom and happiness by effective productivity based regenerative abundance of natural resources - and to feed such diversity into human lives to make people whole again.
