    Good thing is we can learn from past lessons and implement things better. And we have quite a few technical solutions and additional abilities, that don’t apply to real world political systems.

    For example we can implement more complex voting systems than a simple majority election. The Debian project uses a variant of a Concordet method. We can vote often and for details because the process is cheap(er).

    We can shield users from each other and have fewer dependencies to other things. We can strive for different goals at the same time and sometimes use technical tools to make opposing things possible.

    I think the most important thing is, we need a protocol that is as flexible as possible to allow for every scenario. And good/excellent tools for moderation and political stuff. That’d be a good foundation.
