5. Unique ID of the biological mother
Other optional info like

2. Unique IDs of the Father and other relations
3. PIN Code of place of birth

So you're treating this as a birth registration. So instead of
thinking up a whole new system we can implement this as an improvement
of the current birth registration system. This way we have much of the
design in place and we will then need to tweak some things to suite us
better. We could even call this as computerization of the current
birth registration system.
This is not going to be about the technology per say. But whole
development can be done in FOSS style to ensure the transperancy,
participation of diverse views and opinions and speed of the
development and resilience of the model.
True, but we do need something that requires minimal user intervention
to protect them from temselves in many ways. And the FOSS way is
definitely THE best way for such an effort because I guess there are
going to be many "BIG BROTHER" concerns over this.

PS: Thanks Rony for bringing this topic up in the first place. Sadly,
his thread went completely out of context through no fault of his.
Awaiting inputs from you too Rony.
