Short-term goal

Dropis focus right now (June 2012) is to make offering something on Dropis market simple and enjoyable. Dropis also aims at ease meeting with friends needs and interests and swap value. In this first phase the team aims to embrace everything that you would never trade/do in exchange of money and/or for strangers, but that is enjoyable and fun to do/echange with friends.

Nowadays you can buy on Dropis non-essential things, but unique in their qualities, which would be very difficult to buy with money. It is mainly about experiences.
