> p2p and the issues arising by adopting p2p in various movements and
> organizations. We welcome suggestions for panels and papers on any area
> relating to our theme, and particularly in the following areas:
>
> •    P2P Network Theory
> •    P2P and FLOSS adoption
> •    Open source conflicts and forking
> •    Adoption by NGOs and the developing world
> •    Adoption by social movements, hacktivism, cyberconflict
> •    Filesharing conflicts
> •    Licensing Caveats
>
