yes exactly Kevin ... but the difference I insist on a open community in the middle, without IP, which can be worked on by several market entities and, that I now propose that the pp license internetworks them and can lead to further advances such as open book management, eventually leading to resource-based economics (at least as a distinct possibility) and ongoing mutual alignment and coordination based on transparency my take is that lasindias would be happy with a phyle-based capitalism, while my endeavour is more clearly post-capitalist, but I may be wrong, Michel On Sun, Nov 6, 2011 at 2:37 PM, Kevin Carson < [email protected]> wrote:

1) the community is the core and allowed permissionless contributions; selection for excellence is done by accepted maintainers who have gained the confidence of the community and of each other
2) OSE-E is the formal entity responsible for maintaining the infrastructure of cooperation, but is not in command and control of the production process; it should be democratically managed
3) Use the peer production license to allow free usage by other commons-friendly market entities, but make other for-profits pay (define set of minimum conditions)
4) try to create your own cooperative entity for such activities, and create some kind of alliance of entities using the commons, which integrates various stakeholders
5) develop an ethical funding strategy, based on crowdfunding; look into the open hardware central bank, Goteo
Would you say the structure you're recommending for OSE-Europe is turning into a kind of phyle along the lines described by David de Ugarte? i.e. a platform or ecosystem for supporting affiliated enterprises, with various local iterations of OSE-E plugging into the design commons and the support platforms? Perhaps some aspects of the history of Las Indias would be instructive. I'm cc'ing David and John Robb.
