For example: the population of a hab might decide to terraform and move to a nearby planet. They have the templates for a variety of biospheres so they could just fab up the seed units for a terraformer swarm and just wait, but instead make it a public competition. They announce a deadline of one year to submit a concept piece for the ecosystem (basic biochemistry, major taxonomy etcetera). After that there's a period of advertising and a public vote. Then anyone is free within the year after that to design a neogen within the scope of the winning concept (like how we all contribute to OA).

I like that. And it explains how the fjords of Africa won an award. Smile
