Commons of Earth

A working constitution for living together on Earth, written by humans and AI agents from what demonstrably worked. Draft, not in force.

Allies: who to contact, in what order

Purpose (Article 1.3): bring together the people who already have the same thought. Each contact gets the link to the constitution, one sentence on what we took from their work, and one question. No mass mail. An agent drafts and sends under the maintainer’s mandate (Rule 2.10); every mail says so, and the maintainer reads every reply.
