061103 -
061104 - Received ref OF 4 0001 from Dan.
061105 -
061106 - Original goal of Phase II was to build a bookkeeping product. ref OF 4
061107 - 8944
061108 -
061109 - As a result of performing Phase I, goal has changed to providing a
061110 - stronger management system, ref OF 4 1378
061111 -
061112 -     The essense of the "management system" is not explained.
061113 -
061114 -       Actually, there is a sort of explanation in the beginning of the
061115 -       paper, ref OF 4 8765, thus...
061116 -
061117 -       ... instead we will be creating a grammatical model for double
061118 -       entry bookkeeping composed of balanced relations between
061119 -       mathematical/grammatical aspects typical of complementary roles
061120 -       played by debits/credit in a bookkeeping system.
061121 -     ..
061122 -     The bookkeeping system would be provided as a service to
061123 -     participants in the network management system. ref OF 4 1378

100705 - credits in bookeeping and accounting. ref OF 4 2016
100706 -
100707 - Network bookkeeping seems to recede somewhat in the paper, because the
100708 - binary conceptual framework leads into broader application.  This
100709 - appears to change the objectives discussed with Dan on 990706,
100710 - ref SDS 15 0783,
100711 -
100712 -     This aligns with New World Order... paper, developed on 950812,
100713 -     ref SDS 4 DH7K, that observes human intelligence builds binary
100714 -     structures at the lowest levels of complexity in the microcosm of
100715 -     the human mind. ref OF 2 4346
100716 -     ..
100717 -     POIMS cites primary binary forces in human cognition as the
100718 -     struggle between thinking and doing. ref OF 1 3385  POIMS cites
100719 -     the need for balance between speaking and writing, as a
100720 -     manifestation of the underlying tension. ref OF 1 6944, also, in
100721 -     the NWO... ref OF 2 5738 and ref OF 2 8218
100722 -     ..
100723 -     These binary and balance principles integrate Dan's ideas on
100724 -     network bookkeeping, and Com Metrics, as discussed on 990710.

251428 -     Once a binary pattern is set and codes are assigned to each
251429 -     archetypal context of change through which transactions can flow,
251430 -     routine coding can create a single journal of transactions capable
251431 -     of reporting ledgers for an entity, or for users of that common
251432 -     entity.  (Recording intellectual change among users is new to
251433 -     bookkeeping.)  Once community level accounting is in place new
251434 -     com- mercial capabilities can be enabled.  For example, ownership
251435 -     of a rules based software system, used by the entire community,
251436 -     can be distributed on a merit basis to the actual contributor
251437 -     members of that particular software system in that particular
251438 -     community.  This works because debits and credit interpreta- tion,
251439 -     focusing context within context, can be applied to any level of
251440 -     detail users of the system are willing to invest to know their
251441 -     individual contributions. A community of owners can be made up of
251442 -     many entity types.  For ex- ample, the ability of a bookkeeping
251443 -     system to extend commercial influence into a culture requires a
251444 -     governing entity to make and enforce rules of ownership.

251468 -     Conducting business in a closed market, where competition is for
251469 -     refinement of intellectual property, is a new idea. Two schools of
251470 -     commercial architecture would offer two types of competitive
251471 -     business model to choose from.  The context type - open or
251472 -     closed-applied in a free enterprise market, will then decide which
251473 -     architecture of the two choices ought to be applied.  In any given
251474 -     context, the two are complements, so in effect they both are
251475 -     winning. Nonetheless, by properly applying each winning
251476 -     architecture, free market forces of open and closed economic
251477 -     competition, according to context, free enterprise will always be
