Hypertext Systems
The goal is to build new and better hypertext systems based on ideas by the early Internet pioneers, Douglas Engelbart (see Engelbart Colloquium Session 4A from 38:00 on and Engelbart Colloquium Session 4B from 44:00 on, but especially from 49:19), Ted Nelson, the web pioneers, David Gelernter and Ward Cunningham, as in part wonderfully presented by Bret Victor. Precondition is libre-free licensing for software as well as text/media in order to advance the formation of the libre-free, digital and always printable universal library augmented for the user with the help of curatable semantic encoding and powerful, combinable software capabilities/functions.
