Peer production, the guilds, and the washing machine

Peer production, the guilds, and the washing machine | Peer2Politics | Scoop.it

This is not a new article, but a transcript of a marvellous talk by Graham Seaman in 2002 (at the Oekonux conference). I have added it to our selection of key peer to peer essays, which I believe everyone should read to understand the various key aspects of peer production and governance.

Christian Siefkes on Distribution Pools

Christian Siefkes on Distribution Pools | Peer2Politics | Scoop.it

As a trendwatcher with a larger overview of trends than people spending less time on this, I’m often frustrated that I see various initiatives emerging, each working independently, often re-inventing the wheel, and not coordinating on standards and interoperability. A lot of energy is wasted in re-doing things that have already been done and could be built on. An example is the various initiatives on peer to peer infrastructures, which as far as I know, are not correlating.
