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
