Hi StefanMz!

SUGGESTION 1: DEBATE ON FLOSS/PEER PRODUCTION
Perhaps a productive way to move this issue forward would be to
articulate the different positions in a formal "Debate" section
which would appear in the next issue, in December. There could be a
statement by StefanMn and/or StefanMz on why he/they think peer
production transcends current analytical categories and Maurizio
and/or someone else could write a response.
I like to do that.
I welcome this very much.
Since StefanMn is quite busy on his job,
Not only this. I'm also not sure where this project heads to and I
don't want to spend my remaining energy on a potentially dead horse.
I would also
do this on my own. Obviously it would my perspective, and I think I will
address some different points as StefanMn possibly would do, but I share
the general theses: main current analytical categories do not apply (but
some do).
It would be perfectly ok with me if you do it. May be I even find the
energy to improve it. For instance I guess I can help with finding
proper English to express things.

Stefan
