No matter who would write such a document, it's just an opinion. There
is currently no codified "ideology of singularitarianism" that would
be owned by any single Institute.

Eliezer and other SIAI folks seem to like it that way, so there likely
will not be a codified document of Singularitarian principles coming
from their direction. So if there are people who want such a codified
ideology, they're going to have to codify it themselves.

That's a different thing than wanting them to present a codified
ideology. Just read their recent publications. This is a good start:
