...for some reason, my posting did not get through. Here again: * * * Hi Michel That's what Joe Corneli wrote to me right now: "PS. Incidentally, as it turns out I did recently exchange some emails with Michel Bauwens, the founder of the Foundation for Peer-to-Peer Alternatives, where your wiki page is hosted. A few comments from him are in the blog for my Open Governance and Learning P2PU course, http://open-governance-and-learning.posterous.com/." So you know PlanetMath already :). Here's the link to two papers I found quite interesting. Joe wrote: "* I did most of the drafting for this: http://wiki.planetmath.org/AsteroidMeta/metacommons_manifesto * I also wrote: http://metameso.org/~joe/docs/metacommons-survey.pdf" Joe has modified the thoughts expressed there and now is heading more in a direction that seems to overlap with an understanding of demonetized metacommons that I would promote. Concerning the "temperature" of the list, I would suggest cooling. Concerning further "projects", I would find it useful to think about some kind of old-style hardcopy publication of the kind of debates here. Just in case the internet breaks down due to Peak Oil *g* I was wondering since the impressive Crottorf-Meeting which gave rise to this list (indirectly), if it would be interesting for a broader audience beyond cyberspace to listen to the sort of arguments exchanged here. best to all, Andreas
