 :''An ecosystem is a community of living organisms (plants, animals and microbes) in conjunction with the nonliving components of their environment (things like air, water and mineral soil), interacting as a system. Ecosystems come in various sizes but usually encompass specific, limited spaces (although it is sometimes said that the entire planet is an ecosystem)'''

-The links at the bottom of this article lead to the videos and articles I've written to try to describe what this website is all about. Since I knew that merely describing it would not be enough, I launched the site prematurely to try to ''demonstrate'' the software. This has had the liability of also displaying an unpolished and somewhat ''rough-around-the-edges'' website. People are used to going to more "finished" or polished sites that are a bit easier to navigate and use. Even a novice Internet user can put up a Wordpress blog site today and chose from a large number of pre-designed templates and present a nice look in minutes.

-The Semantic wiki is a different beast. The very fact of it's power and versatility do not work in its favor when it comes to slick, out-of-the-box, user-friendly and simple deployment. Mediawiki.org, (the same software Wikipedia uses) gives us a bare-bones powerhouse and leaves it up to the administrator(s) to do the design and development...a work-in-progress for scientolipedia.org since it has been a small volunteer team effort thus far. (July 2012, one year after publishing the first information about the project)

 To do a project of this type elsewhere, (corporate, not-for-profit or governmental) and considering the scope and size of the subject matter and community, it would be normal to expect that a development ''team'' with a budget in the hundreds of thousands should be a more correct "order of magnitude" and sufficient resource allocation to pull it together.

 Lacking broad agreement or understanding about what could and should be done with this technology and the subject of Scientology, we decided to launch the site on a shoestring in order to try to develop that agreement and resources.
-Although you may be intrigued by the depth and complexity of the various areas of the site as a "viewer" or "visitor", moving over to being a "contributor" to the site is much more challenging for most. This is a known problem we face in the process of creating our own "ecosystem".
