Free Network Services

Will free software + open standards and data get us to free network services?
Advantages to free network services -- the advantages of the right thing
Structure, using examples of identi.ca and laconica
Be pragmatic, do it now not perfect
Use a hub and spoke architecture
Use the web
Use the FNS-savvy license (AGPLv3)
Build in licensing -- use a free culture license by default, but let users pick their own.
Use DNS and URLs for identity -- email addresses, XMPP, blogs, OpenID URLs
Build in federation early -- all software has a social aspect. OpeID for authentication, OAuth for authorization.
Support open standards -- FOAF, Atom/RSS, RDF.
Be semantic
Be SEM savvy -- think about how your software looks to search engines. Doing so makes your software easier for 3rd party tools to use.
Build 0.x protocols. OpenMicroBlogging 0.1.
Support a range of usage -- download, host, major service
Build to scale.
Data dumps. All public data, and each user's private data.
Data feeds by default, and push those to aggregators and archivers.
Support other free network services. OpenStreetMaps, GeoNames, Wikia -- work faster if we work together.
Engage with proprietary services. Find users where they are -- but as we fill out the free network service world this becomes less necessary.
Provide a remote API -- mashups, mobile clients, 3rd party development.
Provide a plugin system. Stimulates contribution, integration.
Support themes/skins -- site owners like to be able to do this. Through CSS and through template engines.
Be international. Use wikis for documentation, Use our translation resources.
Make it easy. Installation should be really simple.
Use PHP/MySQL. Build a healthy community. Easy hosting options are a concern here.
