Much (if not all of this) is being done by various different "groups"
around the world. Someone mentioned Freedomship
<http://www.freedomship.com/> (was it Anders Sandberg
who suggested the surplus Oil Tanker buy-up? -- much
more feasible technically, although I'm no ship builder!!), then
there's Laissez Faire City (currently in Costa Rica) <http://www.lfcity.com/>
and New Utopia Sea Country <http://www.new-utopia.com/>, and
of course perhaps the grandmother of them all, Oceania
<http://www.oceania.com/default.htm> However, there is one
(less known, unpublicised) endeavour by the founder of
Investors International ( <http://www.investors-intl.com/> talk
to us if you want to join) who is already well on his way to
buying up a group of islands (Carribbean, I think) and selling
beachfront property. The organisation already has its own
bank (class B, Lichtenstein) with online/smartcard facilities
available soon.
Apart from all that, the Sovereign Individual/PT "movement"
aroung the globe could be harmonised to a sufficient focus
on a specific project (such as this "Extropian Country") with
a workable blueprint to present. (I heard the figure of a
million mentioned for Investors International membership with
all these people knowledgeable to a certain extent about
Sovereignty/PT and Offshore situations which, IMO, is a
prerequisite to achieving anything like this subject.

See the links above for some of this. An "Extropian Focus" could fill
in the gaps.

OK. For starters send us a private email with "Subscribe iU" in the
subject and I'll put you on the list for our *periodic email communique*
commencing soon, covering this subject and others relevant to The
Uni-v.e.r.s.e. With a blue-print all this becomes a lot more feasible.
Sigh no more :o),
