Re: [ox-en] Peer production manifesto?

Hi StefanMn, Christian, all!

May be it was wrong to present the idea by referencing to Michel's
text. What I originally wanted to know is whether you all consider a
peer production manifesto a useful thing.

BTW: Here is definition for manifesto:

  A manifesto is a public declaration of principles and intentions,
  often political in nature, but may also be life stance related.
  However, manifestos relating to religious belief are rather referred
  to as credo.

By "a lot of improvement" I meant cutting out whole sections ;-) .

Yes. What we can do in [ox] is to create a draft and see who is there
to build upon this draft.

May be we are not yet in the state for such a beast...

Yes.

I now recorded_ the idea so it is not lost.
