#### Naming things
**The order**
*Because [naming things is very hard](http://xkcd.com/910/) we decided to use the names from the ["Silo" series of Hugh Howey](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silo_%28series%29). In the series, civilization has to survive in an underground silo. In the series, the order is a book that describes how the silos should be managed. The order is clearly "bad" because all control in an infringment to the freedom of the people. Still, if you progress further in the series, you see that the order is still a good way to manage the people.*
Because [naming things is very hard](http://xkcd.com/910/) we decided to use the names from the ["Silo" series of Hugh Howey](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silo_%28series%29). In the series follows the life of several people living in underground silo's in a post-apocaliptic society.
**The Order**
*In the series, the order is a book that describes how the silos should be managed. The order is clearly "bad" because all control in an infringment to the freedom of the people. Still, if you progress further in the series, you see that the order is still a good way to manage the people.*
In the series, the order is used to controll the people, and to limit their ability to progress. They want to keep the people dump, so they're easy to manage. However, in our hackerspace, we want to do the exact opposite. Our order should empower people to get the best out of themselves. Our order should stimulate collaboration, and should enable people to think creatively and to solve problems creatively. We know that this system will be flawed from the start. We know that control of people is evil. But a flawed system is better than no system, and we will continuesly patch this system to make it better. That is why this is on github. So we can learn from our past mistakes and other people can stand on our shoulders to see further thalegn anyone else.
**The Pact**
*In the series, the pact is "The law".*
Unlike in the series, our pact will made by the group, and enforced by the group. The group can change the pact as they see fit.
**The Legacy**
*In the series, the legacy is a collection of all the information that remains in the old world. It serves as a warning for the people questioning the order. The legacy is only available to a selected number of people, just like the order. The legacy does not include all of history, only certain parts chosen by the people who build the silo.*
Because every good idea that was once written down has been misinterpreted, we included all the information that led us to the Order and the Pact in this repository as The Legacy. This should by used as a "cypher" to interpret this correct and to explain a bit of the rationale behind it.
