[p2p-research] RealSocial certification of true distributed systems

[Michel Bauwens]

Dear Kasper,

on your blog you mention realsocial.org and your opinion that

- I could think of three that would fit my criteria for being Real Social:
BeWelcome, Ripple <http://ripple.sf.net/> and Hitchwiki.  The capitalization
comes from the way the networks, its organization and the software is
developed.

I would like to associate the p2p foundation with that great initiative. By
relaying your choices in our Standards and/or Technology section.

If you agree, can you define some criteria for what are RealSocial, I would
assume 'truly distributed' architectures?

Then, why those 3 conform, and eventually over time we could add others. If
you agree to open up your iniative, I would suggest that Francois Rey and
Olivier Auber also have quite similar ideas and ambitions for true p2p
systems.

I think this is really really important!!

Michel
