DApps and toolkitAt this point WE can learn alot from the Ethereum guys:
Bytemaster has mentioned that in the future we will be having an scripting
language like Ethereum, it will be great to start thinking / documenting how
to create new DApps and how a third party can benefit from the creation of
DApps.
Making the SuperDAC a decentralised application environment or OS. We could
start discussion more detailed areas like UX (User Experience) for example one
main OS like core applications with multiple applications, light wallets, light
applications? etc.
Third party DACsPLAY will NOT be part of BTS!!
There is also the possibility of creating your own Third Party DAC, the only
thing that has changed is that BitsharesX - DNS + VOTE and Play will be under
the same umbrella (and of course much more in the future). These will have to
comply with the Social Contract as before or a new one.
Social ContractThe social CONSENSUS(!) should not be altered .. and 3rd part developers can
As noted before the Social Contract should be preserved for third party DACs,
but here it could be extended to at least BTS (10%), PTS (10%), AGS (10%).
Hopefully this way new and old investors will be rewarded in a multiple DAC
scenario and the required compliance of Third Party DACs as the toolkit will
significantly more advanced with the combined features.
It will be great that we keep the comments answering the bold headers above,
this way we will to avoid silly debates on unrelated subjects, also avoid
usage random pictures or metaphors so all international parties understand
the thoughts. I hope this way we can all contribute to shape / understand
the direction :) Also I hope that Bytemaster is allowed to comment before
the PR lockout.

One of the main goals of these restructuring is to simplify our company image/message. The elimination of PTS and AGS is a big part of this objective. PTS/AGS should be retired or spun-off. If spun off, there should be no assoication with "Bitshares" after the restricting is complete. Bitshares' commitments to AGS/PTS has been fulfilled with the 7% (really 10%) allocation in the new BTS DAC.Even as someone who liked the old paradigm, we are essentially starting over with a new plan. If a big driver in that decision was to simplify then I think that should be pursued fully rather than some hybrid system that will leave nobody satisfied.
Disclosure: I currently hold significant interests in PTS.

I'd wait for the upcoming document I3 is preparing to justify their decisions.

still snapshot on AGS and PTS to honor it! I see no issue with this.
However, in what form AGS/PTS will be continues is up for debate. AGS cannot be
changed but maybe "merged". The consensus about PTS seems to be that POW sucks
(agreed) and that it should either be traded as PTS2 on BTS(X) or have it's own
DPOS chain. Alternatively, plenty discussion exist about whether to combine AGS
and PTS (in what ratio ever) into a GENESIS asset (or maybe chain) to make AGS
liquid again. However, making AGS liquid will never be performed by I3 due to
legal issues around "securities"! So that has to be a community effort.

just my 2 BTS(X)
1) Ethereum is limited in functionality and the coding environment is so difficult that I couldn't even set it up right before it was obsoleted by updates.
I think Bytemaster should do everything possible not to duplicate the confusion and overly complicated setup process. It should be so easy that we can write scripts directly into Bitshares client. The IDE should be built right into the client so that people don't have to go through some complicated setup process.
2) If Invictus has legal issues around securities then we can replace AGS with something like Patronage Points which aren't securities and which would have no legal issues. AGS only has potential legal issues because it was launched during a time when no one was clear on what the rules are and we still aren't clear.
This calls for thinking outside the box and you don't have to wait for Bytemaster and team. You can solve the problem yourself and honor AGS with whatever solution you came up with. The way I could think of was Patronage Points and a Bitshares Cooperative but there are going to be other ideas. Eventually someone is going to come up with something which is better than AGS/PTS with no legal risks.
