Mike's Notes
This is where I will keep detailed working notes on creating Workspaces for Association. Eventually, these will become permanent, better-written documentation stored elsewhere. Hopefully, someone will come up with a better name than this working title.
This replaces coverage in Industry Workspace written on 13/10/2025.
Testing
The current online mockup is version 2 and will be updated frequently. If you are helping with testing, please remember to delete your browser cache so you see the daily changes. Eventually, a live demo version will be available for field trials.
Learning
I have been involved in many volunteer clubs and associations, often serving on committees and as chair. Usually, a few people get overloaded with administrative work. This workspace is designed to simplify the job of every secretary or treasurer by providing automated tools.
Why
"Tocqueville would have agreed. A French aristocrat and thinker, he traveled to the United States in 1831, officially to study the prison system. Instead, he explored the nation’s political institutions, culture, and civic habits and then wrote a two-volume masterpiece.
In Democracy in America, he argued that the genius of American democracy lay not only in its Constitution and leaders, but equally in the everyday associations citizens form to solve problems. Schools, churches, charities, and ad hoc volunteer organizations train people in the habits of self-government. This made Americans a uniquely capable people, unusually suited for democratic governance, even in a large republic. “In democratic countries,” Tocqueville observed, “the science of association is the mother of science; the progress of all the rest depends upon the progress it has made.”
