A .org to explore policies and grow the community

With the launch of the OpenSpime Developer Network yesterday, and the first public version of the OpenSpime protocol, we have taken an important step to turn our vision into reality. But this cannot be achieved on our own, and as importantly it cannot be achieved without a healthy debate that goes beyond the technical specifications. Spimes show a great promise, and are seen by many as an important step forward to better understand our world, and find applications that will be to the benefit of humankind. There are concerns, however, that the power of spimes can be abused, that the collection of data, at an unprecedented granularity, by governments, and corporations, can undermine fundamental freedoms, instead of creating new ones, as it should be.

That is why we hope that OpenSpime.org will be able and become, growing from a repository of code, and documentation which it is today, to a place where people, corporations, and organizations can discuss the future of a healthy and desirable development of an Open Internet Of Things. Come, and join the discussion about OpenSpime, and the future of our technologies, and policies!

OpenSpime Developer Network launches

Today we are launching the OpenSpime Developer Network, where all the coders, hackers, makers who are interested in playing with the OpenSpime protocol, and its various implementations can meet.

It is only through the creativity and inventiveness of the community of developers that OpenSpime will succeed! This is why we are excited that so many have already subscribed to the OpenSpime Developer Network.

Together with the launch of the network we also are releasing a first implementation of the protocol in Python, which can be used to quickly prototype applications on a variety of platforms. You can also find explanatory videos that describe the OpenSpime protocol, and the way the PyOpenSpime implementation works.
