---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Joel Dietz <[email protected]> Date: Sat, Dec 27, 2014 at 3:13 AM Subject: Re: Shared IP Just wanted to notify everyone here that Primavera and I have teamed up to run a workshop at Harvard University in January on "cryptoequity." One of the working groups is specifically on Intellectual property, and we would welcome broader participation. I am also fleshing out my Decentralized Governance Whitepaper, and would welcome co-authors on some portions. Here is part of the outline I have so far: https://www.dropbox.com/s/16wf39e2zmra8yg/Screenshot%202014-12-26%2012.12.27... https://www.dropbox.com/s/rvx9m18rkwrmnui/Screenshot%202014-12-26%2012.12.57... I personally believe that we are at the beginning of the most significant opportunity to reclaim the commons that has occurred in the past two centuries and that blockchain technology has an extraordinary role to play. On this note, I also recommend my article on the "Second Wave of Blockchain Innovation" https://medium.com/@Swarm/the-second-wave-of-blockchain-innovation-270e6daff...

hi Joel,
in any case, the research material will be in cc and can be shared,
I personally have a pre-agreement with a foundation to make this proposal to them, so I will go ahead, but let's then aim for matching funds through a crowdfunding campaign, but for which I won't have to time, but we will of course support the spread of its messages etc ..
I think both can be done in parallel
will be working on the proposal today and invite people here in for comments etc ..

I strongly suggest crowdfunding with the results to be released into the shared commons
although potentially more difficult from a standpoint of fundraising (although it is possible that the whole amount could be carried out from the standpoint of a single organization, like Ethereum), it has the incredible benefit of being forced to develop something that is immediately usable
this means that at the end of your project you will have something of utility that can be shared
I'm also pretty much planning to do this whether or not the p2pfoundation pushes it forwards, because establishing a 'cryptocommons' is very important to me and other folks in the 2.0 space

Hi Michel
I’ve no experience in grant-winning, but in general I know that funders have a bias towards large grants and projects to small ones, since every grant carries with it a similar overhead cost to the agency, but larger grants are more likely to have an impact than smaller ones.

I was going to put eur25k in my request (and not more than 50k)
this would go partly to the p2p-f and stacco as initiators and conceptual text developers, partly to lionel and primavera as legal experts (haven't asked them yet), and partly to gt and the swarm then, as 'implementors

How much funding do you think this needs?

hi Joel,
GT , stacco in cc, was the first to use this PPL license, and primavera has written a first article on it, but we are seeking funding to develop it on a stable legal basis,
but I believe the fact that breaches need to be interpreted is exactly what you want to achieve, i.e. a discursive ethical community that needs to decide on its ethics
so you would have to establish a social charter, and some 'foundation' (as is customary in open source) with a 'ethical counci' that interprets the charter in case of conflict,

I am extremely sympathetic to this idea. Has there been legal work done around the viability of it (i.e. what constitutes a contribution and what constitutes a breach?). I'm very interested in digging into the specifics of implementation (esp. on a "coin-based" model, where everyone who has the coins of a particular project can freely use the IP).
Best,
