That problem will solve itself if you get the license and XML schema good enough to create a self-improving protocol. There are many good coders, but they do not contribute to projects where others of different values are allowed to just do damage to their code or twist it to be useful to their enemies. All code is political. Look at WAR FTP if you want to see a good values-driven bit of protocol writing with a [[licnese]] to match. | That problem will solve itself if you get the license and XML schema good enough to create a self-improving protocol.

Very important: What is the minimum deliverable? Consumerium "hello world"? | |||
Here is a troll's suggestion: | |||
"Don't buy this. | |||
XML schema establishes what 'buy' means, so all buying decisions are affected by the same [[Consumerium protocol]]. If 'this' is undisputed, i.e. there is some barcode that is recognized as attached to 'something like this', then there is some known and limited set of [[label data]] which some [[executable]] uses to say "Don't buy this" or just say nothing about that buying decision. The label data is known to be compatible with both the XML schema and the executable, and the executable is known to say nothing if the issues with the buying decision are not those the consumer cares about. This is like a [[ban]] or a [[boycott]]. | |||
A more sophisticated version would set a price to make up for whatever [[evil]] was done in creating and disposing of this product, and maybe accept a [[donation]] to make up for whatever damage if the buying happens, or suggest an alternative that does not do this damage. It is like a [[tax]], only it expresses [[consumer]] not [[country]]'s ideas of [[sin]], and is again accounted for, and maybe also collected by, an executable the consumer trusts. | |||
