[JoPP-Public] Future of Journal of Peer Production

[george dafermos]

Hello Mathieu,

I wish I had something concrete to propose, but right now all I can think
of is that it would be a pity if such an interesting and special project as
the JoPP stopped...but let's talk about it, let's see what the other
members think about it and I hope we'll find a way to continue the
project.

Best,
-G.
