Long Now — Book of Time application
Lab 001.1 of the Protocols for the Long Now series. Deadline: Jun 5, 02026 — https://longnow.org/labs/001/1
This repo is Jeff Emmett's submission. The proposal is rCal — a federated event substrate (TimeAnchor holon) rendered as a cone of possibility. The substrate is operational; the cone is one consumer. Both this prototype and the live work it derives from inform the application.

The actual work this application is about
The TimeAnchor holon ships across multiple repos and is the primary subject of the submission. See drafts/previous-work.md for the full list with links. The most load-bearing pieces:
- holon-service — the canonical federation server (Phase 1 content_hash dedup just landed; Phases 2–4 planned)
- rcal-online — calendar consumer
- encryptid-sdk — the federation client (TS + Python)
- rspace-registry — Space provisioning + ontology specs
- Spec:
event_addressing_and_storage.mdin rspace-registry — the eight-phase evolution plan
