Dear friends, an important announcement, in 3 days, I will provisionally retire from the p2p-f mailing list. Material conditions make it impossible for me to continue 'curation as usual', as well as efforts in broader community building and dialogue. From January to April, I will be working intensively on a very demanding privately-funded research project, then I have a late spring lecture tour, and will likely spend 6 weeks in brazil, mid-may to the end of June. Curation will be sharply curtailed but I will continue tagging as a normal activity, undertaken for the research project. Depending on available time, I will continue, on a much lighter regime, Facebook and Scoop.it. Twitter will continue to alert new blog and wiki items, as an automatic feature. The blog will continue and I have devised a system with Franco, see http://p2pfoundation.net/P2P_Blog_Planning_Resources, but I will at most be able to spend half a day a week on it, so input from the community will be essential. I will aim for one personal editorial a week. Feel free to suggest items for the following permanent rubrics: (bear in mind we may not be able to publish as intensely as the plan below suggests) Published on alternative days 1.
