Weak Signal's description: 

Project VirtualLife aims to provide an immersive and secure virtual life environment, combining a high quality 3D virtual experience with the trustiness of a secure communication infrastructure. The project constitutes a new form of civil organization, finalized to the creation of secure and ruled places within the virtual world, where important transactions can occur. The aggregation in communities and the collaboration between users is encouraged in order to reach a management of common and private interests. This collaboration is achieved through the definition of common rules that take care of all the involved cultures. A standard collection of laws, the Virtual Constitution, finalized to the creation and regulation of a secure and trusted environment (Virtual Nation) will be studied.
