Welcome to Marx.su!

Hi, I am Johannes Wilm -- anthropologist, activist, programmer, Marxist and a bunch of other things. I am European, but I've been living in various parts of North America as well. Currently I live in Nicaragua and try to create a web-based information system for the revolutionary departmento of agriculture of the Sandinista government. This is not the only web project I've been doing for the last few years in the name of the revolution.


So at some point I realized that there needs to be a hub for all these projects. So that's what Marx.su is about.  It's all open source stuff of some kind or other. Hopefully most of this can be usable whenever the next trial of world socialism comes along. You know, to control production decentally and stuff.

Currently this is still just my petty project, but if you're interested in participating, please drop me a note and I'll rearrange this as a group project.

 

The two projects I start out with are:

 

Albastryde -- a system to monitor all kinds of statistical factors and textual information. I am programming this as part of my assignment for SIMAS and the first implementation is supposed to be used my the Nicaraguan agricultural department. Check also the GoogleCode page which also explains the name.

 

Archive -- a CMS for text documents that is meant to take over for the Marxist Internet Archive as a back-end. It also has a GoogleCode page.
