[P2P-F] political collaborations around p2p advancement

[orsan at tie-netherlands.nl]

Thiat would be great! I would do what I can in my very limited capacity!
In short term, the name is not so attractive :) but, this experimental  
space can be transformed into what you are suggesting Amaia:  
http://openfsm.net/projects/gaia/summary
I have already started to invite people from #take the square, world  
strike 2012, j30 stike movements. it may become an experimental  
networked online meeting point. Than we may link it to P2P-F in  
everyway we can!
what do you think?
