Stoa

• A [[place]] to meet others with the intent of [[cooperating]].
• A covered spot, usually a [[porch]], within an [[agora]].
  • A [[semi public]] [[space]].
• In the [[historical agora]] of [[Athens]]:
  • [[stoa of attalos]]
  • [[stoa poikile]]
• In this [[agora]]:
  • A [[stoa]] is a [[group]] of [[people]] in an [[agora]] with [[compatible]] [[worldviews]] and [[tools]] and [[interests]] conducive to [[cooperation]].
    • In particular, well-working stoas are likely to be integrated by people with [[aligned]] or [[complementary]] [[goals]] and [[values]].
  • I would like to propose a number of Stoas. Each one depends in some way on the output of the formers.
    • The [[first stoa]] focuses on building and running an [[agora]].
      • See [[agora development]], [[agora plan]], [[agora feature requests]].
        • Also [[wikilinks everywhere]], [[browser extensions]], [[agora twitter integration]] if you're interested in specific projects.
      • See [[agora howto]] and [[agora client]] instead if you'd like to contribute to the [[agora]] as a [[user]].
    • The [[second stoa]] focuses on freeing, opening up and otherwise improving the [[internet]] using [[open source]] and [[open ethics]].
      • See [[fedstoa]] if you'd like to participate.
    • The [[third stoa]] focuses on general [[world improvement]]. It uses [[state of the art]] [[knowledge tools]] to model the world and its problems as seen and evaluated by [[all]] [[people]] and then tries to execute incremental improvements.
      • See [[protopoi]], [[m prime]].
        • [[protopia]], [[eutopia]], [[world improvement]], [[flancia]].
