In Leipzig again and again there were discussions comparing Wikipedia
with Free Software. That gave me the idea that the main topic of an
possible 5th Oekonux Conference could be something like this:
Free Software, Wikipedia, OpenAccess
Three examples of peer production compared
What do you think?
There have been replies on [pox], but it think [ox-en] is a better place
to discuss. Thus I fwd. the replies we had on [pox] here:

Hi Stefan and all,

I think that would be a pity. The topic of ox4 was already "Free
Software and Beyond: The World of Peer Production" which allowed
discussing all fields of peer production, whether online or offline
or some mixtures of both. While both free software and Wikipedia are
doubtlessly very important examples of peer production, it would be
a big loss to limit ox5 merely to online projects. Especially now
where open source hardware and similar new forms of peer production
are really gaining momentum.
Just my free 2 cents

What about:
Free Software, Free Design, Free Hardware
Three examples of peer production compared
Or more advancing:
Free Software, Free Hardware, Free Anything
Three steps on the way to a Free Society
Ciao,
