[ox-en] Re: Hubs as entrypoints to P2P culture, was: P2P living environments

H Franz - thanks for your perspective - ironically reminding us of the links we already have any just need to more intentionally cultivate and nourish.
Axladitsa and other learning centres are connected through shared 'art of hosting practice and many of us who also came to The Hub through the Pioneers of Change network have been part of the emergence of this thinking - and playing - for some time now, just I sense a whole other level of enterprise emerging where these 'ways of being' are starting to be recognised - and practised - as 'operating systems' in these enterprises.
It was amazing to have Michel in our Hub Amsterdam - though a lot of what he talked about was so new to the general community, it sparked an ongoing tickle to explore more among some key members...
I have also been involved in telecentre.org over the years, introducing the live interactive 'art of hosting' practices to various meetings, including a kick off one of the Hungarian Telecentre Association Network and think that whole network certainly is an already existing and quickly growing infrastructure that could complement Hubs that will be emerging in may places in the world. How much do we consciously work on connecting and how much do we trust will emerge?
It is nice to see that underlying any 'strategy' as such are actual friendships and co-learning relationships based on shared meaning and experience across so many networks. 

best,
Tatiana

Josef,
you and Michel must have received the invitation to the Axladitsa meeting 
which is attached here; I am just stunned about this piece of
self-organized wisdom where the host community understands its role and responsibility from inside already. Now this particular event is almost 
too much of a Global Villages business (maybe the most GlobalVillages
minded event ever conceived), (and I deplore not being able to be there because of another very important one in Germany) but in a similar way a meeting - or a series of meetings - of the hub community like this could 
be dedicated on the useful results of our mapping of the P2P world.

I think thats simple and logical. My offer to the hub community was to
offer (in exactly this framework) a "peer2peer immersion" meeting hosted maybe by people like Michel and others, for the viewpoint of the hub user. The idea is "getting people on fire" through the most suitable community 
connections offered by the hub that might have the potential to change
their lives. A hub could behave like a library, that offers a particular and special consulting to any individual willing to use the medium to its fullest potential. Of course we at GIVE have for a long time considered even a professional education model for this, called Regional Information 
Coaching (the name refers to the fact that global knowledge resources
could contribute and manifest in local activity and networking) and the 
Hungarian Telehouse Association came up with the concept of the
Information Society Mentor.

so for me the answer is obvious. Oh yes, and also I suggest the hub
network should join the telecentre network to bring these viewpoint into a 
larger scope.

Franz
