OGM Infrastructure (Evolving)

Expressed in the context of The Five Layers.

Prototype and demonstrate initial versions of OGM platform and protocols.
- Wiki for knowledge sharing, documenting and reporting
- Directories and profiles
- Navigating Jerry's Brain in new media
Develop technical and communications expertise in outreach to other organizations
- What OGM has to offer
- How OGM members should approach others
Establish needed business infrastructure
- Identify and establish needed systems and processes
- Connect to back-end business services for limited bookkeeping and value tracking.
- Open a bank account in OGM's name (unless we use Lionsberg's for now)
Set up grant funding process, using Lionsberg 501(c)3
- Apply for grants, create matching challenges
- Set up Fellowships
  - Define Fellowship categories & structure
  - Selection and awarding criteria
  - Equitable distribution of available funds
Set up simplest infrastructure for commercial ventures (eg, consulting, speaking)
Lionsberg will provide $15K in matching funds for OGM. OGM will reach out to potential funders and raise the seed funds to match.
Sustainability: making concrete progress against our milestones and soliciting additional funders in the second half of the Sprint will enable OGM to pave a runway that continues from Sprint to Sprint.
Create plan for second OGM Sprint.
- Experiment with evaluating our progress

Governance of OGM's emerging Commons
- Experiment with defining our membrane (what protections we need around "open")
- Experiment with collective decision-making, using at least three processes, and create a report comparing them
Governance dimensions
