The projects, tools, & concepts of creating solutions for a robust and peaceful society through voluntary interactions.
This, and my website (currently being moved) is my ongoing effort to provide a full curated index showcasing the open source projects, their tools and the concepts that can be used to “roll your own” platform. This site also focuses on highlighting the errors of prohibition and how a voluntary society can overcome the violence and corruption that stifles our societies today.
These are key elements for a far more peaceful and robust society. We are living in possibly the most transformative time in human history. We have the tools to explore this new frontier and explore we shall.
What is Open Source?
A project is Open Source when its codebase is public and editable, often hosted on Github. Now, we have an interesting upgrade/ addition to the excellent Github: Utopian.io
It turns out, these tools and concepts can be applied to help you take control of anything you want. It may have started with software, but voluntary choice and peer-to-peer collaboration is now enabled and gaining momentum in just about every aspect of life: education, food, tools & hardware, communications, finance and trade, transportation, as well as security and even governance.
Maybe in the future, we could see a proliferation of maker spaces and markets operated organically and sustainable by community activists using these tools and technologies for the collaboration of design and action.
Interesting stuff! So your plan for the website is to create some kind of database for people to explore tools for a voluntary society?
Maybe you'll find this interesting too:

Yes, basically. I want someone to open source the roads so I can talk about it, lol.
Thanks for the links. That is definitely a group to follow. I tried to become a developer member for them, but I could not for the life of me get FreeCAD to even work and that is a requisite. I still help out from time to time, but I would love to document some of the things they are doing.
