Taka Sats Docs

Understand the purpose, run an independent community deployment, and see the limits of today’s records and the proposed shared network.

Implemented guidance and future designs are labelled separately. Kibera is the first implementation; cross-community consolidation, full public portfolios and records-only mode are not yet implemented.

1. 1. Purpose and people

   Why record waste work, what groups and collectors gain, and where software has limits.

2. 2. Fork to production

   Source, hosting, credentials, settings, staff, test flow, funding, acceptance, backup and upgrades.

3. 3. Open source and independence

   AGPL rights, source availability, data ownership, optional services and operating without the founders.

4. 4. Records, portfolios and claims

   Separate recorded, paid, accepted and recycled weights. Build useful reports without overstating impact.

5. 5. Field integrity and supervisors

   Repeat-weighing risks, custody, software checks, supervisor vetting, safety and appeals.

6. 6. Community network proposal

   Independent installations, optional publication, privacy, provenance and comparable shared numbers. Not implemented.

7. 7. Research and benchmark

   Dated primary-source comparisons and what Taka Sats should learn from other approaches.
