Old Wiki Homepage

Welcome to the Sarapis Foundation wiki where we share unpolished information relevant to Free/Libre/Open source (FLO) projects. We love FLO because it provides us with access to our technologies source materials so we can participate in their development. Read more of our thoughts about FLO.

We've divided our work into three sections:

FLO Solutions are software, hardware, data and knowledge solutions that make their source materials accessible to anyone who wants to participate in their development.

  • BEEx is FLO grassroots fundraising software solution that we've deployed at BEEx.org
  • FLOing.org is a news aggregation and community website for people interested in participating in the free/libre/open evolution.
  • OpenImperative helps nonprofit and community organizations understand the value of FLO solutions.

FLO Spaces are physical locations that encourage participatory production practices.

  • OpenCoworking is a project to centralize and make accessible information about the world's coworking spaces. You can see some of our notes on the project at Open Coworking Library.
    • Starting a Coworking Space?
    • The OS Handbook is a living document that synthesizes coworking best practices from a variety of different sources including coworking owners, operators, users and community groups and includes original and curated business plans, financial models and investor presentations intended to help people understand, create and maintain FLO-friendly spaces.

FLO Participation are Sarapis team projects that integrate FLO solutions and FLO spaces together in ambitious ways.

  • FLO Farm is a 200+ acre FLO Space in Eastern Pennsylvania where we farm, research, craft and live using FLO principles. Check out FLOfarm.org to see what's happening on the land.
  • New Junction City is a movement to turn the Broadway Junction neighborhood of Brooklyn, NY into a hub of FLO activity.
  • FLOAmerica is a set of recommendations designed for America's unique set of challenges and traditions.

Quotes

"More consumers create more problems. More participants create more solutions. It's that simple.

The Sarapis Foundation believes that access to technology is a human right and that the only way we can secure this right is by creating an entire ecosystem of FLO technologies people can use to create wealth and wellness for themselves and their communities.

Our reward for achieving this ambitious objective is nothing less than the abundance that becomes possible when everyone can participate in a networked society." (http://www.sarapisfoundation.org/)
