# Discussion - Alexander has a very linear connection between problems and solutions, which is not the case of this pattern language - patterns as sets of challenges which are generic problems in society - Alexander's PL has a hierarchy, The Wise Democracy hasn't - There has been no community working on pattern mining, it has been mainly research work by Atlee and a few friends. - The deck of card, rather than a book is at the center and a website allows for everybody's access and going deeper: from the card description, to a video for each pattern and a more detailed transcript - Especially interesting is how existing dysfunctionalities are connected to a variety of patterns to adress them html
