題目: Re: [unSYSTEM] Cody Wilson
Hey Robert, thanks for your message. About places: the advantage we have
in Catalonia is that we can work with local networks who have political
support and pools of human resources that we can use for support. So the
conflict is always there, but we aim to protect ourself.

We are going to begin industrial fabrication around September, and right
now it's important that we're developing software tools. We're
evaluating economic plans and researching different communities so we
can establish a fair participatory contract (constitution).

If you want to participate, it's still very early days. We welcome
people who have something to offer, to come live and work with us on
projects. If you're not sure about your skills, then it's better to
visit and see where or how you can participate. We've set a 1 year
timeframe before we begin anyway.

Also it's important that we're visible and the places have easy access.
You can find many very nice but isolated places.
