perhaps as a point of comparison; The Millennium Project is integrating all of its information, groups, and software into a "Global Futures Intelligence System." GFIS* is The Millennium Project’s new way for you to participate with and have access to all of our resources in one place. Those who buy a one-year subscription can interact with all the elements of the system, make suggestions, initiate discussions with experts around the world, and search through over 10,000 pages of futures research and 1,300 pages of methods. The text has built-in Google translation with 52 languages. MP Node chairs and content reviewers will have free access.

However it's a closed system, with membership ~400USD per year for a non-profit (higher for libraries and companies) targeted at 'traditional' foresight clients.

Once we have a few more pieces and/or commitments from authors, perhaps we can follow up some of the "potentially interesting, long shots, uncertain" as email interviews and/or short Q&A? (cc: @alkan @maja)
