What is LDI?

The LDI principle: LDI comes from Let's Do It. Basically it means: organizing, developping, doing together. In an LDI website everyone can start a project, an idea, and everyone can join it. Important is: it has to have a practical effect. An LDI isn't made just to store information, but it is active and wants something to happen, wants people to do something.

Definitions

Feel free to add or change definitions. This ones are far away from being definitive.

  • LDI website: A site where people can organizate something together, where ideas develope eachselves.
  • LDIWiki: A wiki that applies the LDI principle.
  • LDIs: the projects added in a LDI website or Wiki
  • LDI net: a net of correlated projects, with LDI mothers, sisters and sons.
  • LDI mother: the main project of a jerarchical LDI net.
  • LDI sister: a project that has similar or complementar goals to an "LDI brother"
  • LDI son: a more little project that was part of a bigger one, that can grow independent of the "LDI mother"

How to edit an LDI

If you want to edit an LDI, find a short name for it, that defines your project, and add it as a link in the main page. Then, in the link you can begin developping your idea. If you want you can copy the structure of the Let's structure LDI and paste it in yours.

You may structure your LDI this way:

  • Description of the project
  • Sister and son projects
  • Why this project, why to join it
  • How to contribute
  • Story of the project while it goes on, reached goals
  • Next Goals
  • Statistics
  • Contributors
  • Documentation, link to other sites...
