Spin Name
Fedora Netizen
Summary
Fedora Netizen Spin is an operating system providing privacy, security, analytics, and engagement tools for citizens, governments, and nonprofits operating and administering network devices on the internet.
Initial Release Goal
Fedora 22
Owner(s)
- Name: Corey Leong, MNM, MA*
- Email: cleong at fedoraproject dot org
Detailed Description
Fedora Netizen is an open source operating system for enabling internet citizens to engage with online services and communities. The goal for Netizen is to pattern the operating system's features after Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs which was published in his 1943 paper, "A Theory of Human Motivation". As a professor of pyschology, Abraham Maslow theorized that individuals attempt to experience five stages of needs starting with physiological, safety, social, esteem, and then ending with self-actualization. Beginning with the first level of physiological needs, individuals' motivational needs ascend upwards to higher levels of needs in order, however, only after establishing lower levels of needs first before ascending to the next level.
The philosophy for Netizen closely relates to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs by establishing three primary software package levels in a hierarchical model. The first and lowest software package level addresses the need for Netizen Privacy in the areas of personal privacy, informational privacy, and communication privacy. After Netizen Privacy, the second software package level addresses the need for Netizen Security in the areas of data security, local security, and network security. After Netizen Security, the third software package level addresses the need for Netizen Engagement in the areas of publishing, education, and social engagement.
Future Netizen software package levels will address analytics, awareness, design, develop, and others.
Benefit to Fedora
In an effort to benefit Fedora, Netizen's marketing goal is to expose the spin project to new, alternative users not yet targeted such as:
- Activists
- Political Advocates
- Volunteers
- Researchers
In addition, organizations and institutions in the public and charity sectors are ideal entities for gaining new users and new installations. The following are Netizen potentials:
- Government Agencies
- Political Action Committees
- Nonprofit Organizations
- Research Institutes
As development continues, new types of users, organizations, and sectors may be identified for maximizing future marketing efforts of Netizen and its beneficial features as an ideal operating system and open source software solution.
