NEW POLITICAL PARTY is BORN : D96

Dear Digerati,

With this digital message I announce the birth of a new and global 
political party called D96.  
Sign: encircled D96 with blitz sparcs outflying (c)
 
Politicians and civil servants should have no fear for their carreer 
or
position or shortterm objectives, because the aims of D'96 are small
number ones (a few people here and there) and for the long term 
(beyond 
next week). So relax, this message is not important for any elections 
anywhere.

In order to face the new challenges of Diverse Reality which is 
more complex and changes faster than the Second Wave frames of mind 
and mass-institutions can handle we believe that a global Digital 
community
must be established and woven which has an agenda to:
        * De-massify 
        * De-bureaucratize                       open
        * De-centralize          institutions--> multiple reliable 
objects
        * Di-stribute                          
        * Di-versify
        * Di-gitize
 AND at the same time will:
        & Re-integrate                          many
        & Re-late !               fixed links--> micro transactions of 
info,
        & Re-connect laterally                  imagination, wisdom, 
knowledge 
        & Re-communicate and listen             through networks
        & Re-externalize and help
And will be based on a networkconcensus which will start to build-up a 
well
balanced set of tasks and rules founded on the De-viding of forces of 
the
Trias Telematica:
# individual digital civilians and volunteer groups   with Freedom,
# state institutes who work for the common good       based on 
Equality
# business ventures who take risks and compete and cooperate in 
Brotherhood

Whether, where and when this D'96 political movement will be a 
positive 
force does not depend on large numbers of members in any nation state 
but
on the quality of its cyberspace participators and the effect of their
network- communicated information contribution to other villagers.

(this is not interesting to anybody any time soon, but feel free to 
 forward this birth announcement on the Internet and on Usenet)
