Russ: Very interesting area and site.
I have been working on some similar types of group decision making activities.... My current focus is based on the work of John N. Warfield. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_N._Warfield http://www.jnwarfield.com/ http://www.gmu.edu/depts/t-iasis/warfield/warfield.htm http://ead.lib.virginia.edu/vivaxtf/view?docId=gmu/vifgm00008.xml The state of my current project is discussed at: http://www.systemsconcept.org/ I hope to have some time next week to look at your site in more detail and provide comments. Take care, be good to yourself and have fun, Joe On Wed, Oct 1, 2014 at 1:20 PM, Russ King <[email protected]> wrote: > I have a site at http://netdecisionmaking.appspot.com and related code > at https://github.com/NewGlobalStrategy/NetDecisionMaking.
