[p2p-research] further contribution by David Ronfeldt on p2p as successor system

[Michel Bauwens]

Marc,

unless this is an earlier reaction ...

we have proposed to set up a due process for this issue, there is not more
that can be done, since what you propose is a unilateral decision by
yourself and the community having to follow you, and I do not see things
happening?

Noboby has nominated Ryan nor Kevin, they volunteered, and they have earned
the trust of most of us. The only thing which can avoid ego fights is due
process, which we are proposing to you.

Is there any alternative?

Michel
