DataPerfect Digital Engines - an Open Source Curriculum
The development of a open source curriculum on DataPerfect Digital Engines, based on the MS-DOS classic, DataPerfect 2.6F - a companion program to the word processing class, WordPerfect 5.1+ - and the application of information ecology principles and protocols. The DataPerfect Digital Engine is being designed as a prototype digital engine designed to make available the wealth - to the extent that information can be wealth - that the zero-based properties of information - zero mass, zero physical size and virtually zero travel-time - offer since digital information is free from the historical constraints on wealth imposed by the laws of conservation of mass and energy.
