[P2P-F] RS: RS: structured mapping of real p2p internet infrastructure

[Fuster, Mayo]

Dear Michel, Wouter and all!

Thanks Michel for your last reaction into the infrastructuture issue. Michel I merged your input into the last version of the infrastructura part of Fcforum 2010 declaration. It is here: http://quadpad.lqdn.fr:9000/d1NSGToeC0
In black highlight you can notice the additions I did with Michel's last input. Please Michel if you consider is still necessary, you change or add anything more directly into the pad. 

There was also inserted Sepp previous input.  

Concerning the point on forkability raised by Wouter, on the answers to the questionneire which feed this working document most people mentioned the important of it, see that in the document is in point iii.iv). 

I moved the text from the Fcforum wiki to this pad in order to facilitate people inserting input directly into the working document if they wish to. Again, it is here: http://quadpad.lqdn.fr:9000/d1NSGToeC0

Cheers! Mayo

Tema: Re: RS: structured mapping of real p2p internet infrastructure
 
Dear Mayo,

here is the statement I promised, defining p2p infrastructures, I hope it
can be of some use:
http://p2pfoundation.net/Defining_True_P2P_Infrastructures

please note that this is not to question the legitimacy of non-p2p
infrastructures per se, but to define a full p2p alternative which may
co-exist alongside it,

this is of course, just a proposal, open to improvements and changes,

Michel

What is a p2p infrastructure:

1) A P2P communications and cooperation infrastructure is a technological
and social infrastructure which allows any individual to voluntarily
aggregate with others for purposes of communication or the creation of
common value

2 )A P2P technological infrastructure allows any agent to initiate actions
from any point within the network, on the basis of equality of communication
(network neutrality) and without any censorship impeding free speech and the
freedom of association and cooperation. It is a distributed infrastructure
in which elements of decentralisation and centralisation can only serve the
efficiency of the network, and not issues of control or profit.

3) A P2P ownership infrastructure is preferentially owned by the users and
producers of value over the network. Private and public ownership of P2P
communication platforms can only be justified by superior service provision
which does not impede the p2p rights of usage defined in 1 and 2.

4) A P2P governance infrastructure is based on the full rights by
communities and participating individuals to govern their own
infrastructures and actiivities. Governance by owners of infrastructure is
subsumed to the prior usage and cooperation rights of users, including the
right to autonomy and self-governance. The governance of P2P infrastructures
recognizes participation by all legitimate stakeholders.

5) P2P revenue infrastructures recognize that value creation is primarily
the result of user activities and cooperation, and has benefit or revenue
sharing processes in place which recognize this value creation, but do not
impede the continuation of peer to peer relational dynamics and value
creation over the network.
