Dear Mathieu, all,
Thank you very much for this invitation. It is a great honor for me to be part of the JoPP board.
I have been working on the general topic of peer-to-peer systems since my master on the design and implementation of distributed systems (engineering), and then continued with the design of incentive mechanisms for p2p file sharing, among other p2p systems, for my PhD (economics). During my post-doc in Paris I shifted to incorporating ideas from behavioural and social sciences for encouraging cooperation in wireless community networks, and ended up to urban studies, the design of "hybrid space" and the slow development of an interdisciplinary research project along these lines together with my collaborator, and wife, Ileana Apostol, who is an urban planner.
See http://nethood.org and http://www.tik.ee.ethz.ch/~pantonia/ for CVs, publications, talks, etc.
Recently, we have both quit ETH Zurich and founded a non-profit organization, NetHood, through which we had two successful EU Horizon 2020 applications and two 3-year projects will be starting in January 2016: http://mazizone.eu & http://netcommons.eu
In the mean time, through the organization of various interdisciplinary events I got involved in two very interesting related, and "real", case studies: - complementary currencies, and especially the Sardex network in Sardinia, from where I write this e-mail (see http://compare-network.net/sardinia/) - cooperative housing, and especially the young cooperative housing and living projects in Zurich (http://o500.org is an under construction web site, which I am developing in cooperation with P.M., http://o500.org/pm.html and with Ileana we are members of the latest under development cooperative housing project, NeNa1, http://o500.org/pechakucha.html)
As for my role as a board member, I am already a co-editor of the upcoming special issue on "Alternative Internets" and with Penny and Nikos Anastasopoulos we are preparing a call for papers for another issue on "P2P urbanism".
I think that my main contribution will be mostly on the interdisciplinary perspective and hopefully also on bringing closer research and action (btw, I am also an active member of INURA, http://inura.org).
Best regards,
Panayotis, or Panos :-)

Hi Penny, all
The official duties of board members are:
1. commit to reviewing (if called on) two papers per year, and
2. contribute to the development of the journal. This can be done through posting on this list, publicising the journal, or coming up with ideas for articles, projects, or special issues - for example, I don't know, an issue on peer production and urbanism sounds like a great idea. ;-)
Hope this helps,
cheers,
Mathieu

Dear Mathieu,
Many thanks for sponsoring me to be a member of the JoPP board; very much appreciated. It would be great to send us some further information on our role as JoPP board members.

Dear Penny and Panos-
I am writing to tell you that (as discussed with Penny a few months ago) I propose to do the following:
1. subscribe you to the Journal of Peer Production (JoPP) general and public list;
2. on that list, sponsor you to become JoPP board members and invite you to briefly present your research interests and intended contribution to the journal.
Please let us know if there is an issue with any of the above.
cheers,
Mathieu (on behalf of the JoPP core team)
