I've come to realize that something I was conceptualizing/creating was already conceptualized/created in 2008 ( https://inria.hal.science/inria-00216196/document ) which is both awesome to see, but also annoying that I didn't research enough. If I had researched more, I would have likely found this and my brain power could have been spared.

It is nice to see so many parallels between my own conception, and something created by others. It's also nice to see this laid out so nicely on paper (above) and that it was successfully built (I'm not nearly there yet). It's also nice to see some things I hadn't considered yet.

Here's another project from ~2019, as well as some references to other Federated Wikis, which I also had no idea about until a few weeks ago. ( https://wiki.p2pfoundation.net/P2P_Wiki ).

I really should have used that darn google thing, but I guess maybe I didn't know what to Google. I only stumbled across this as I was looking up Concurrency Awareness, as I pondered the role of a magazine.
