Need to transfer notes from laptop.
Contents
Priorities list
- adciv email
- Post-scarcity pic
- Automated construction
- Open source CAD project info
Main
- CAD assemblies warpable subject to functional specs
- Social elements aspects enabled by the technological base layer
- Energy efficiency
- Refs for energy availability
- CNC
- Note about bug finding and bug fixing being easier and more intuitive with physical designs than with software
- micro generation

Layout
Bold point in a panel perhaps linked with navigation. Quoted sections to stand out.
Trivial
- Update instructions with my updated ones from other wiki
- Change "Fundamental resources" to "Abundance of fundamental resources"
- Keywords i.e. open design, open-source design etc.
- v. light grey grid behind white panes
Other
- Open design + Advanced automation + abundance of raw materials and energy = viable post-scarcity age
- The stone soup story. Narya have a good version of this on their front page.
- Explaining the background, reality and consequences of free software vs. open-source
Philosophy of this website
- Focus is technology and concepts that can be plausibly achieved with current technology and know-how. Many things mentioned on this site might sound implausible if open collaborative design and closed-loop automation are not understood.
Interesting links that don't have a home yet
- www.worldchanging.com
- Make magazine
Unsorted
'Closed-loop automation' and 'automated infrastructure' are parts of the same things, not quite why I split them out - -I think they need to be merged again.
Maybe if 'intro' sections were in the template namespace the pages that incorporate them would need manual refreshing via cache-purge...
one paragraph intro too.
One sentence intro:
open collaborative design and advanced self-maintaining automation creating a new age of post scarcity
OR
Post scarcity through self-maintaining automation and open collaborative design
Text under photo banner could be:
- Engineering Post Scarcity
- Attempting to explain how we can engineer a true post-scarcity age
Make images clickable
Site map for all main sections - clickable mindmap?
Need to have american spelling of 'advanced civilization' somewhere so picked up on search engines
Perhaps logo text should read 'AdCiv' rather than 'adciv'
Upload warning if file greater than 150K - needs changing
