Not interested in being paid so far!

I'm interested, but my student schedule wouldn't permit it for the next year at least.

Not interested.

Not yet.
 * Are you interested in using the technologies that we are developing directly?

The project sounds amazing. If I'm out of the university by then, I think I would really like to try the experiment.
 * ''Are you interested in being part of the world's first, open source, resilient community? The GVCS is the preparatory step for the OSE Village Experiment - a 2 year, immersion experiment (2013-2014) for testing whether a real, thriving, modern-day prototype community of 200 people can be built on 200 acres using local resources and open access to information? We are looking for approximately 200 people to fill a diverse array of roles, according to the Social Contract that is being developed. This may be the boldest social experiment on earth - a pioneering community whose goal is to extend the index of possibilities regarding harmonious existence of humans, ecology, and technology - as a beacon of light to benefit of all people on Earth.
