No, and I don't think Carlo meant starting all over. He simply
repeated that our goal is to find, assemble or (if necessary) write
that piece or even stack of software that fulfills those 4
requirements. And that's what the workshops @30C3 are going to be
about, right?

Im curious as to how it is possible to have "self determined data storage", yet also preclude use of the web to store that data?

Yes, there definitely are. And there're certainly several approaches
(like unhosted) that don't contradict those 4 points so we'll
eventually might talk about how to combine them (as we already started
to do). But our first and primary goal really need to be those 4
points. I would have thought that we all agreed on this back in
Berlin?
