[p2p-research] [p2p energy economy] Re: Toward a p2p Collaborative Principles -- Section 1 (Draft) Toward a Peer to Peer Ethos

[Ryan Lanham]

Alex,

Revision 1 of Draft 1 Section 1.

How about a sentence like the following as a 2nd sentence in

1(A):  Peers typically recognize each other without reference to rank or
hierarchies. Their willingness to interact is not linked to external
benefits or causes such as prestige, duty or obligation.  Instead, they
interact best with egalitarian spirit hoping to serve and be served by
contributions to the commons.

After 1(B) interactions: .... High quality p2p interactions benefit
participants and larger communities.  Quality degrades as participants lose
control and/or diminish larger communities.

Marc:  Thanks. Will look to revision concept.
