It might be worthwhile to try starting an ontology for such with this forum as 
a node of some kind, perhaps #instanceOf.  (01)

I don't. But maybe people who subscribe to Ontolog Forum have some serious 
problems that they are actively working on (or would like to work on if they 
had a suitable ontology).  (04)
As we have been discussing, the concept of self interest is related to many 
issues in organizations. Such organizations would range in size from a family, 
to a tribe, to a country.  (05)
The original thread started with governments, but it could just as well apply 
to businesses: a "mom and pop" store, a small business with a few dozen 
employees, or a large multinational corporation.  (06)

Before we can consider forming a start-up company to solve problems, we should 
try to find at least one problem that we could solve -- or at least generate a 
draft of a proposal for solving it.  (08)
Does anybody have any suggestions?  (09)
