Hi Patrick,

You'll see I made some changes to your shootout page,

I distinguished from really-existing modes, from the proposals.  I would of
course put peer production in the really exisitng modes, even though it is
clearly emergent

The proposals could be distinguished into historical alternatives
(anarchism, socialism, etc..) and a special for newly emerging proposals.

All of this should be distinguished from partial proposals, i.e.
neocommercialization, which covers only an aspect.

As far as I'm concernced, openfarmtech is largely peer production, and all
the more important as it tries to find a clear solution for linking it with
the physical sphere, while clearly careful to integrate the distributive
aspects of peer production, see

for that point,

Michel
