Hi Peter, all

I am also part of the COST Action "dynamics of virtual work" though I have yet to make it to a meeting. We definitely want to connect to that network as there is a lot of interesting work being done there with Ursula Huws, a great lady. But as far as I am aware they don't deal with P2P much. For example Ursula basically sees it as reinforcing existing class hierarchies (since only the wealthy can afford to produce commons for free) so this issue is intended to contribute to bringing those research communities closer together. We will endeavour to finalise the CFP before 3 June.

cheers,

Mathieu

Thanks, Matthieu, for this update

I have two questions

(1) Are you in a position to summarize and comment on the reasons for changing the title of the Ecuadorian experiment issue?

Hi Peter!

Well, it was never meant to be officially entitled so :-)

Most importantly, the goal from the very beginning was to discuss the application of policies for the commons - and the principles underlying them - as something that extends well beyond any one country.

(2) I am part of a COST action on the "dynamics of virtual work" (http://dynamicsofvirtualwork.com/) -- I'd like to promote the "Peer production and paid labour" issue with Stefano Zacchiroli and Phoebe Moore in that group (there is a meeting 3-5 June to put that on the radar); so it would be perfect to have that call ready before 3 June

Best / Peter
