[p2p-research] Your Swarm Registration / enterprise p2p governance

just wondering if you'd be able to construct say a 'three-level' definition
of open enterprises, that would allow to classify them as to the level of
openness ...

see for inspiration:

and

Software<http://p2pfoundation.net/Open_Standards_Requirement_for_Software>
