-# Vision
+# Concept
 
-  * Eben Mogen
+  * Aim: Move logfiles of internet activities physically home
+  * Put freedom-enabling technologies in a small low-power box
+
+# History
+
+ * Eben Moglen gives targeted talk to groups within the larger Freedom movement
+  * Spring 2010: first(?) talk on freedom vs. "cloud" computing
+  * Late Spring 2010: NYU talk spawns Diaspora project
+  * Summer 2010: Talk at Debconf 10 spawns Debian FreedomBox project
+
+# Status
+
+ * Eben Moglen
+  * Consistently avoid hiliting specific projects (e.g. Diaspora) in talks
+  * February 2011: Forms FreedomBox Foundation - linking to Debian FreedomBox project
+  * Gets USD 50,000 in 5 days (aiming at 60,000) for leadership tasks
+ * Spawned Debian project
+  * Lots of ideas at mailinglist
+  * Lots of collected material at wiki - on more or less production ready code
+  * Little work on design
+  * Little work on creating actual usable snapshot
+
+# "My FreedomBox"
+
+  * Dreams
+  * Design
+  * Software
+  * Hardware
+
+# "My FreedomBox", detailed
+
+  * Dream → share and discuss them at ML, collect notes at wiki
+  * Design → guidelines - requiring least possible unification, e.g. preferrably modular
+  * Software → Debian Pure Blends
+  * Hardware → simplest possible Plug hardware (= SheevaPlug?)
+
+# "My crystalball"
+
+  * Upstream invents, implements and production-redies code
+  * Debian packages production-ready code projects
+  * FreedomBox team develops a "Freedom" Debian Pure Blend
+  * Derivative(s) cherry-picks official (and maybe unofficial) FreedomBox pieces
+  * Derivative(s) negotiate with hardware vendors
+  * Derivative(s) installs actual "Debian (un)Pure Blends install" onto box hardware
+  * Derivative(s) negotiate with distribution channels of physical boxes
+  * End-users buy FreedomBox in shop
+
+# "My crystalball", Blend details
+
+  * Upstream provides code
+  * Debian provides packaging and infrastructure
+  * FreedomBox team invents and refines design guidelines (plural!)
+  * FreedomBox team maintains debtags
+  * FreedomBox team maintains package lists (plural!), preferrably from debtags
+  * FreedomBox team refine debconf preseeding lists
+  * FreedomBox team maintains unofficial(!) config hacks
+  * FreedomBox team promotes patches replacing config hacks with debconf'ization
+  * FreedomBox team maintains unofficial(!) snapshot build routines (plural!)
+  * Derivative(s) consumes code packaging composition(s)
+  * End-users buy FreedomBox in shop
