====AnewGo infrastructure status
====
[[AnewGo]] runs on anewgo.org, provided by Xanthus Inc on [[WikiWorld]]
*There is a loose plan to separate [[AnewGo]] with it's own [[TikiWiki]] or http://Plone.org community (like [[MooWiki]]:FrontPage ) providing independence from [[WikiWorld]] and lots of additional virtual community functionality.

Email aliases are provided by [[MailBot]]. There have been few takers.

Scalability: How do we grow?

As we identify "volunteered" computing resources, I will manually assign hostnames.anewgo.org for services, which include fifile storesdatabases, redundancy, etc.

The next step is the [[AnewGoComputingCooperative]] where my PC become [[JimScarver]].AnewGo.org and we share resources for backup and common interest processes. The plan is to add name services aliasing to [[MailBot]] so that both static and dynamic IP addresses can be reassigned names simply.

We could amass a lot of resources providing host names for machines on dynamic IP addresses. Citizens should probably get some kind of credit for the resources used on their personal, or business machines.

A cooperative network is required for [[AnewGo]] because its IT budget is zero.

Such a network could be a tremendous asset, it could attract members and make a profit, well, maybe not profit exactly, but we might get paid for some of our efforts at least.

It should be possible to invest our shared resources profitably. Profit need not be monetary, when we want the same things, many hands make lite work, and we save money by sharing costs, capitalizing on computing resources that would otherwise have been wasted.

[[PubWan]] is an ideal application, not a money maker perhaps, but attracting more computing resources for whatever people whatever data anyone wants to make transparent(public).

In addition to the investment of computing resources, [[AnewGo]] need investment any way it can get it. The bank should be a currency exchange, a credit union and an investment club. You can play with the big boys when we put our money together as individuals.

Allowing [[NewMoney]] currencies is still a great idea. The more currencies, the merrier==== The infrastructure for currency exchange will also be profitable. But funny money will only work if there are real value or recognized currency behind them. Computing resources represent real value when accompanied by real capital (including donations).

==== Immediate needs
====
Our initial objective is to get our ICANN .ag designation. To this end recruitment is primary. Once we can sell .ng domains, or trade them for services, recruitment may be easier, but that would be after the fact unfortunately.

Perhaps offering hostnames.anewgo.net addresses for dynamic IP customers temporarily, until we can give them real hostname.ng domain for their personal PC might help generate members.

The level of interest in [[AnewGo]] has not been very high. I guess we need to wait a little and see what it will become. My time is very limited and I haven't participated in developing effective group processes as I had hoped, but the process is simple.

# Identify deliverables
# Time lines, and clear
# assignment of responsibilities.

Groups that do not do that, do not succeed.

The biggest problem you face right now is usage and participation in [[AnewGo]]. Right now we have 6 citizens and 1 "resident". I'm assuming because of the halt in progress, many of the citizens have lost interest in [[AnewGo]] and drifted away. Right now it's not going to matter what laws you put forth, what tasks you delegate, anything. The number of citizens/residents is holding us back. Our first and ''immediate'' task is to increase interest and knowledge of [[AnewGo]] and at that point, we may be able to start. --KenSchry

Well, I've been doing my part. I've been informing people whose interest overlaps with [[WikiWorld]] and [[AnewGo]] about here. And I will continue to do so, as long as I think they or here will benefit... ---StarPilot

To the extent that [[LorraineLee|I|]] have any moral standing as [[MotherOfPubwan]], I approve of pubwan technology as a means to [[AnewGo]] ends to the extent that "transparency" is a STRICTLY HIGHER priority than profit. If the ideological (ok, philosophical whatever) imperatives of [[WikiWorld]] itself are too pro-business to be compatible with pubwan, I'll happily take the pubwan content elsewhere. Thank you for your patience (and so far) patronage.

As founder of [[PubWan]], you can do whatever you like. But [[WikiWorld]] plays a small part in [[AnewGo]], if the idea to have a separate supported [[TikiWiki]] for it goes through, it will be even farther distanced. But in order for the ideals (ie: [[JimScarvers]] Platform, Pubwan-AnewGo idea) to take place, we need expanded interest in [[AnewGo]], sufficient to sustain it beyond the virtual government idea, to this platform and such. --KenSchry
----
You realize that [[AnewGo]] isn't really a new government, right? It's just a digital community. Perhaps if it grows sufficently, it might become something more, but at it's root, its just one more community. One that decided to try and formalize how to resolve certain aspects of community life (who makes up the rules, how to debate them, how to debate whether a rule is fine as is or needs changing or dropping, etc...) ---StarPilot

New features are available at http://h2o.law.harvard.edu/ViewProject.do?projectID<code>108 including open discussion. I stongly advise we use it as a decision aid unless we have something better. Please register if you have not. I advertized [[AnewGo]] at http://ryze.com 500 citizens of the world network http://www.ryze.com/postdisplay.php?confid</code>34&messageid=58334 and http://newciv.org http://www.newciv.org/nl/newslog.php/_v106

[[AnewGo]] is rather chaotic at present, perhaps it should be a [[ChaordicSystem]]
*AnewGo is Choatic at this time because of the sense of loss on what to do. We seem to have been stuck in a rut. By the way, anyone hear from [[PhillipBannigan]] recently? Maybe he could help us with that.

;;: No, it isn't at a loss. [[AnewGo]] is merely the community of those that participate. It is merely the sum of what we want to do. What is it that you want to do, [[KenSchry]]? How can you fit that into [[AnewGo]], or how can [[AnewGo]] fit in with that? ---StarPilot
