Manual for ROOMS
ROOMS, Les Arques, France 2004
Introduction:
ROOMS gives access to rooms. Any person can use ROOMS. ROOMS can be established
anywhere supplying different functions like rooms for sleeping, making
food, reading, meeting, producing things etc.
Construction:
ROOMS is a system that can be used for sharing rooms with other persons.
ROOMS consists of rooms in different places in the world. The rooms are
included in ROOMS by persons who guarantee that anybody can use them according
to the function they are initiated with and within given periods of time.
Any person can expand ROOMS by providing one or more rooms. These rooms
can be in existing buildings, they can be mobile rooms, or they can be
built for ROOMS. Positions of ROOMS can be found in Manual for ROOMS.
The manual is continuously updated. A current version can also be obtained
by contacting N55.
Using ROOMS:
Persons who offer rooms indicate a function and a time period for the
use of the rooms. Any person can use ROOMS
Attention is directed to the logical relation between persons and the
rights of persons. Persons should be treated as persons and therefore
as having rights. If we deny this assertion it goes wrong: here is a person,
but this person should not be treated as a person, or: here is a person,
who should be treated as a person, but not as having rights. Therefore
we can only talk about persons in a way that makes sense if we know that
persons have rights.
Expanding ROOMS:
ROOMS can be expanded by anybody by offering a room and informing N55
of the position. Formally, the rooms remain the property of the persons
participating in this way, but they guarantee that any person can use
the rooms according to their indicated functions. Alternatively, persons
can set up parallel ROOMS systems, for example by collecting and distributing
information about the positions of ROOMS themselves.
Maintenance:
ROOMS is maintained by the persons involved.
