+=== Bioluddite charter ===
+In the afternoon we distilled our notes and thoughts into the beginnings of a [[Bioluddite charter]] with the following sections, based on Chaordic principles (used for example [[http://www.brefigroup.co.uk/resources/chaordic_organisation.html|here]].
+  * Purpose/Preamble – That which identifies and binds the community together as worthy of commitment and personal effort. An unambiguous vision or concept of the future.
+  * Principles – The behavioural aspirations of the community. (...) Must have a high degree of ethical and moral content, which does not prescribe behaviour but guides it.
+  * Concept – A general view of the best possible institutional embodiment of purpose and principles. A general picture of the desired relationships.
+  * Structure – The specific anatomy of the organisation. The contract of rights and obligations between all members of the community.
+  * People – The initial members of the community and the leadership essential to effective initiation and evolution of the purpose, principles and structure.
