Hi J. (?) I managed to read this proposal all the way to the end, but I simply have no real clue what you're on about, what this software actually *does*, or why anyone should care. I looked around using google and found, among other things, found,
http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2005-12/0486.shtml where you wrote: "The simplest possibility for usage of information currency is to pay software developers by purchasing the information currency they generate by writing software. To illustrate, in today's world, many (but not all :) software developers have jobs where they are compensated for writing software. In the simplest case, a developer is today paid, for example, $2000/week for being an employee, and their future pay and continued employment are dependent on the quality of their work, determined after they are paid. " Which for me reduces down to "you use software to calculate some economic value for digital information (such as source code), and then you can do stuff economists do", which brings up memories of programmers being paid for every line of code they write, which is a bad idea. Regardless, IMHO this kind of software doesn't belong at apache since we're all about creating value (both in economic and non-economic sense) *without* measuring or turning it into any kind of currency. take care! LSD PS: As an aside, if you want something like this to become successful "on the web", I really suggest you find someone to help you with turning your ideas (of which there seem to be loads in InfoEng) into words in a way that more people can readily understand. The common phrase used to describe this stuff is "technical writing", and there's also lots of resources online about it, eg: http://www.google.com/search?q=technical%20writing --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
