==== Community aspect ====
==== Goal===
The goal of OPS is to free not only the use of OSS but even the
establishment,
thus exploring ways of creating a self-organising bazaar in it's true
meaning epmloying an approach we call the [[FlockOfBirds]]
===Rules===
* we tread the all of the codebase as a self-organising thing, much like a
Wiki. No patches, only commits. No secret lists. No committer approval by
anyone.
* No earned merits except current stake and activity in the project
* Everyone is welcome, everything is valuable.

===Tools to ensure the process will work===
* a code ladder with gradually more stable products is established (not by
commit rights but by convention). everyone is free to commit anywhere but
there will be a convention on how to stabilise things.
* changes get propagated in the code ladder by gathering a flock of
interested parties and working it up with testing, docs, review etc.
* a foundation is established that can be the focal point for companies
whishing to participate, donate or contribute in other ways, much like the
Eclipse foundation.


====Technical aspect====
===Goal===
The technical goal of DPML is to provide tools, processes and practices that
enable the devlopment of truly independent components that can be discovered,
assembled, configured and (re)deployed without manual intervention if needed,
thus fully realising the potential of component based software.

===Main areas of application (right now)===
* automation
* banking
* web services

====Commercial aspect====
===Goal===
DPML wants to provide means for companies to benefit from OSS without the
risk/need to be directly involved in the highly volatile participation
process

===Means===
DPML will try to establish a commercial "web of knowledge" that loosely
connects individuals and companies that can provide not only services and
products based on DPML technical platform but even
* provide help to restructure the customers in house development according
to OSS and DPML principles
* provide help to feed non-core software investments back into OSS (not
only DPML) for the benefit of the customer (low maintenace/risk, Stallmans
freedoms) and the OSS community (commercial donations)
* provide professional-grade support on DPML in the lists and via IRC etc.
(goal is answer time within 30minutes)
