Hi all,
I have published a new article, entitled "The Boom of Commons-Based Peer
Production". It is part of the new, fat, amazing commons book "The Wealth of
the Commons", edited by David Bollier and Silke Helfrich (Levellers Press,
Amherst, MA). The article contains the following sections:
* The Linux principle
* Commons, contributions and cooperation
* Free culture and open hardware
* The emergence of community-based infrastructures
* Two concepts of plenty
The full text can be found at
http://keimform.de/2012/boom-commons-based-peer-production/ or
http://www.wealthofthecommons.org/essay/boom-commons-based-peer-production .
A list of all book contributions can be found at
http://www.wealthofthecommons.org/contents -- all of them will be freed over
time.
Best regards
Christian

To appeal to Karl Popper's thesis that scientists should not pursue truth
but should seek to falsify their hypotheses does not help. That thesis rest
on the inductive assumption that, once refuted, a hypothesis will prove
false in future.
