It is a do-ocracy, comprised of those who share a passion for building a common repository of knowledge, in support of Sovereign Identity. - **Not for Profit**: The purpose of this site is to learn and share knowledge. That said, if there is a particular topic you'd like us to serve more information on, a contribution would surely speed the time to publication. - **Public Domain**: Unless otherwise noted, to the extent permissable, all the content created in the making of this site is released to the public domain.
