Very important: This will be an Open Source project! I want to have others be able to use anything, or all of the ideas that are used for this. It's the principles of how and why this design can work that is important.

Like how open source software -- or scientific peer review works, I think that we need to have open source information; about anything and everything. All good ideas need to be shared, and built up, and revised, and improved -- for the benefit of all. Patents are not working; not in the way they were intended. And good solutions to the world's challenges are too important to "sit on".
