Subject: [members] Collaboration possibilities between OVN platform and P2Pvalue platform
Dear all,
Few weeks ago, we had a conference call with some of the members of Sensorica.
Sensorica defines themselves as: "an Open Value Network (OVN) of multidisciplinary professionals, amateurs and affiliated research labs, providing sensing and automation solutions" (source:
http://www.sensorica.co/)
Sensorica is a very interesting example of CBPP community (and open business model) specially because they are deeply involved in the implementation of an Open Value Network platform. Quickly explained, the goal of this platform is to compile the value created by each participant to later distribute the captured value (once the collaborative output is sold) equitably among the contributors, depending on their degree of implication (their theoretical work behind the OVNs is here:
http://valuenetwork.referata.com/wiki/Main_Page)
The main programmers of the OVN platform are Bob Haugen and Lynn Foster (both in CC). It is still in development, but some CBPP (like Sensorica or the Guerilla Media Collective -
http://guerrillatranslation.com/ -) have already started to test it.
As I have already discussed with some of you, I think that the P2Pvalue platform and the OVN platform have points in common that would be good to analyze together, even though the scope of the OVN might go beyond the P2Pvalue project.
To study the collaboration possibilities between the two collaborative platforms (P2Pvalue & OVN platform), I propose to do a Google Hangout between members of both teams this week or next one.
Please, if interested in participating, please fill in your availability in this Doodle:
