I reckon there's a whole lot more to be considered than either of us have thought of. It might be a bit premature to start writing a taxonomy of minds, there's still so much we don't know.

This is probably another thing that we'll have a much better chance of tackling after uploading starts happening (not necessarily human uploading, though. I expect once we start working with vertebrate brains, a lot of things will become clearer. I can see parallels with genome decoding, in terms of what we can learn)
