What we're after here is 'decision superiority', not 'information
superiority', he said. We have to get inside the decision cycle of the
enemy. We have to be able to discover what they're doing and respond to
it effectively.[5]
I think the above Boyd-speak is still true. Even if shared or open
sourced, the primary value of the wiki remains in the hands of 'the
community'. That would only change if the attacker were to destroy
google's servers.
The secondary value of (say) the foreign intel agencies to be able to
read the state of the collective mind will be an enourmous win. But,
they have to get it first, and that is definately a secondary issue.
Know yourself first, then know your enemy.
Also, it is unlikely the Top-Secret and Secret ones will ever be
published openly by the journals. They might, as a stunt, publish the
lowest grade one, as it is unclassified.
