IP - needs to be in the commons (even for-profit) - what about attribution?

Administrative Fee - covers administrative costs, call it 5% - won't cover Lionsberg's costs for low-volume - excess funds collected are allocated back into funds to be disbursed - percentage doesn't scale with cost #PotentialStructuralBug - goal: benefits commons rather than growth - separate from Common Infrastructure (tree trunk) structure, or tithing, or etc.

Bugs / Features / To Dos - need to define what the Commmons is - Regenerative Economy - rules are all provisional until replaced by something better (kind of like Science) - different domains around the world will have different solutions needed (e.g., 501(c)3 isn't for every nation)

Massive Wiki - Pete and Jordan to explore The Way of Massive Wiki :-)

Consider Other Lifeforms - easy to make some more fractal copies at this point

After Thursday 4/22 Jordan Call

• reintegrate MOU (legal section, culture and alignment section, slim fast SOW, trim anything too flowery)
