<div>all work is material, but all work incorporates knowledge and if that knowledge is formalized as knowledge, code or design, the CBRL approach applies</div><div><br></div><div>so our license is actually designed for the material economy, to allow a cooperative economy to emerge</div>

I changed the subject a bit and excerpted some statements from a<br>
couple of your messages to ask a question (below the excerpts).<br>
<br>
<excerpts><br>
as you likely now, my instantiation is centered around the creation of<br>
open and ethical enterpreneurial coalitions, that co-produce commons,<br>
and that start applying open book accounting and open supply chains in<br>
their collaborative practices (a la Curto Cafe), using commons-based<br>
reciprocity licenses as their binding social charter,<br>
<br>
[...]<br>
<br>
The basic idea of open coops is explained here:<br>
<a href="http://p2pfoundation.net/Why_We_Need_a_New_Kind_of_Open_Cooperativism_for_the_P2P_Age" target="_blank">http://p2pfoundation.net/Why_We_Need_a_New_Kind_of_Open_Cooperativism_for_the_P2P_Age</a><br>
and elaborated here:<br>
<a href="http://p2pfoundation.net/From_the_Communism_of_Capital_to_a_Capital_for_the_Commons" target="_blank">http://p2pfoundation.net/From_the_Communism_of_Capital_to_a_Capital_for_the_Commons</a><br>
<br>
At the core of such coops, intended to create cooperative<br>
enterpreneurial coalitions, is<br>
the proposal to use a new kind of license, commons-based reciprocity<br>
licenses, a first instantiation of which is , though I don't like its<br>
too explicit political language, the Peer Production License,<br>
<a href="http://p2pfoundation.net/Peer_Production_License" target="_blank">http://p2pfoundation.net/Peer_Production_License</a><br>
<br>
Essentially such a license creates open knowledge, with one exception:<br>
<br>
* allows full use by not for profit and common good oriented entities<br>
* allows full use by self-owned enterpreneurial entities<br>
* allows full use by for-profits who contribute<br>
<br>
so the one exception is for-profits who do not contribute, who have to<br>
pay for the use of the license; the idea is less the money flow, but<br>
the recreation of a moral economy and social charter about<br>
reciprocity, to be defined by coalition itself<br>
</excerpts><br>
<br>
Question: that social charter (the PPL) focuses on "intellectual<br>
property": '“Work” means the literary and/or artistic work offered<br>
under the terms of this License'.<br>
<br>
Sensorica's value network concept, by contrast, deals with all kinds<br>
of work, especially those involved in creating material goods. I<br>
understand from past conversations that you *do* want the ideas of<br>
peer-to-peer mutual coordination to apply to all kinds of production.<br>
Sensorica's idea of a social charter, as I understand it, includes the<br>
distribution of income from sales of goods and services, back along<br>
the network of value producing activities that went into those goods<br>
and services. Not only through one organization, but also among other<br>
organizations that contributed to the outcomes.<br>
<br>
That obviously does not lessen the money flow, but it does establish<br>
reciprocity. I am curious how you would deal with the social charter<br>
and reciprocity in the production of material goods, especially in<br>
this period of transition. And if you know of other examples of doing<br>
something like that, and how their social charters work.<br>
<br>
I am not trying to persuade anybody about anything regarding<br>
Sensorica's concept here. Their first real value equation is just now<br>
being formulated. I use them as an example of a social charter for the<br>
production of more than intellectual works, with the goal of<br>
developing the means for people to make a living in these experiments<br>
toward a better economy (although making a living from their work is<br>
not yet a reality in their case, either).<br>
