Each user and project have two fields:

• volume
  • the amount of 'stuff' it has (redmine/git content)
  • think: 'quantity'
• price
  • the price of a single unit of stuff
  • think: 'quality'

volume constantly increases, with the exception of truly deleting content.

• A user is a Stock
• A project is a Market
• Stocks inside a market affect eachother's price
• Market's are isolated
  • a market's gdp (both volume and price) are unaffect by local inactivity and external market activity

users have a stock price:

volume * price

Indicators of Frumping (IOF) are calculated by a user's actions as well as inactivity.

projects have gdp (gross domestic product) and gni (gross national income):

gdp = volume * price
gni = gdp + sum(all sub projects)
