ICWS provides a Web services (SOAP) interface for information currency systems. Information Currency Web Services implementation uses Java, the Axis SOAP engine, and the PostgreSQL database server.

Information Currency CVS is a work-alike adaptation of CVS which returns information currency for committed source code.

Allocation of economic resources by financial mechanisms is an essential part of modern economies, and financial innovations have been a powerful force for human progress. Information technology provides the opportunity to create new economic instruments derived from any arbitrary element of information.

Information currency units are economically scarce objects that are issued and maintained by a service that establishes a correspondence between underlying units of information and information currency. Information currency will enable the application of economic mechanisms for information management and valuation.

Information currency units can be traded for other economic instruments, and the trade value of information currency units provides an economic valuation of the underlying information.

What's New in This Release:
This release adds two ant build targets to make it easy to test ICWS and create sample information currency.
Use "ant test-server" and "ant test-issuance" to start the ICWS server and create a sample information currency series, respectively.
