[ox-en] Re: [p2p-research] [p2pf] Launch of P2P Research Group



[Converted from multipart/alternative]

[1 text/plain]
Marc,

just so we understand each other, I'm talking for a board of advisors for
the p2p foundation, not for the p2p research group, which is a separate
issue

do you agree with starting the process, perhaps through a wiki page, P2P
Wisdom Council ?

Lessig is going to be difficult I think (I'll explain that separately, as
this is a public mailing list), but I'm much more hopeful with people like
Yochai Benkler, Howard Rheingold, and others,

I just need one 'co-owner' to start this, but don't want to do this entirely
on my own,

Hi Michel,

It's the next logical move, IMO, after having gained a recognized
university/academic collaborator in the UK. I guess I can talk to yourself
and Athina about the existing collaborative project with Hull so I can lay
out the case for further academic collaboration in the context of a board of
advisors.

I had communicated with Lessig once very casually during his considering to
run for Congress and he replied right away and in meaningful and genuine
way.

Overall, I find it fairly easy to get a genuine response back from actual
intellectuals as they don't tend to play the politics of artificial
self-scarcity (I also know that pseudo intellectuals who are in it for money
and power tend to raise their self importance by not answering emails from
people they don't know or being extremely slow in response or very
superficial etc... so we have an automatic filter right there by being
relatively unknown.)

My issue is that I'm not too familiar with the who's who of the P2P world.
I only know of Larry Lessig for his copyright reform efforts but I'm sure we
can dig up a few people at MIT and Harvard, but it should work like a domino
effect.

This would be a good idea, IMO, and if I fail at it then the issue would be
just mine not of the idea itself so another person can try again, although I
don't wanna waste any bullets so to speak.

I'll look for separate discussion email from you with appropriate CCs.

Hi Marc,

as you perhaps know, the P2P Foundation is both a global informal group,
but with a dormant legal entity under Dutch law, which already has a board.

I'm more interested in setting up a board of advisors, with people who
could lend their prestige to our projects, by accepting to sit in this
board.

Would you be willing to help me with this, so as to make it a reality?
It's an old project and dream of mine, which got lost on the sideways, but
if you're willing to take the co-lead, I can work on it. We should start by
drawing a list of names.

If you agree, and since it is not a research issue, perhaps we can use the
p2pf mailing list to work on it? I can also create a wiki page to
consolidate suggestions. Once we have an agreed list, we can start
approaching them individually,

Michel

Hi Michel,

Would it make sense to setup a "board of directors" kind of entity (but
not call it that per se) for the P2P Foundation with people who bring
extravagant weight.. the likes of Lessig and people of his reach and
reputation.

?

I applaud this initiative and bravo to those offering the funding.  On
the other hand, lists of  "researchers" meaning people at academic
institutions who write papers for journals seems a failed model that is less
in need of reinforcement than rejection.

Research in an academic sense is not p2p, hasn't been, and never will
be.  I would not exclude it, I just would feed it by giving it additional
free assets of prestige and focus without their earning those resources in
open (truly open) communities.

    I´m extremely happy to announce this initiative, which will enable
people interested in p2p dynamics to more easily appeal for research
funding.

B  elow is a short announcement from Athina Karatzogianni, please ask
for the document that she is referring to in her email listed below. If you
are involved with research, academic or not, please let us know and do

"The P2P Foundation <http://p2pfoundation.net/> in collaboration with
the University of Hull <http://www.hull.ac.uk/>are creating a
P2PResearch Group (P2PRG) with a physical base in Hull, in order to initiate
a material equivalent to the various virtual networks we are all part of.
Some of the goals of the group are to attract funding to improve already
existent infrastructures, create more material and immaterial networks and
hubs and capture funding for research, conferences and workshops. A
conference scheduled for November will also produce a direct and transparent
steering committee to oversee the various activities of the group.
Therefore, it would be particularly helpful, if everyone, who is interested
in participating, fills as much information as they can, in the document
attached, and email it to Athina<http://www.hull.ac.uk/humanities/media_studies/staff/athina_karatzogianni/>at
athina.k gmail.com"

see and forward doc attached (please edit doc michel as you see fit)
