Coincidentally, I’ve been talking to a group of people, one of whom worked with Chris Mears, and are now working on a new version of One-click.Org / one-click co-op. They are developing an evolvable structure, starting with a a very simple model, and gradually adding further models as demand indicates and resources allow.
They are in the process of setting up as a worker co-op, Platform.Earth, and will be ‘eating their own dog food’ - using the re-coded one-click-org tool for this process.
The infrastructure they are building is based on dockerised microservices to provide an infrastructure for building the components needed for building many other types of platform, and could directly support Graham’s Platform 6 proposals.
Platform.Earth (the product) is then a wider plan to support commons organisations (ie a wider remit than pure co-ops but not private businesses) - of which the expanded ‘one-click orgs’ package is only one of the foundational offerings. The others that are being developed include a three-layer currency / commons market set of tools, and social governance tools that integrate with the legal structures that the one-click orgs create.
A primary use-case for this set of services is to make the transactions costs for setting up new co-operative joint ventures with robust transparent governance as low as possible.
Platform.Earth plan to join CoTech and would like to to work with other CoTechers to form a second tier co-op to share and further develop these tools - testing a one-click second tier co-op (LLP?) tool in the process
