[p2p-research] P2P-F FTA MOU, fyi

[Michel Bauwens]

I just want to clear up a possible confusion,

this course is not a peer produced course, it's a course about peer
production, and it will use open licensing

my own role is limited to work with 2-3 people on the concept,  and find
experts who can write parts and sub-parts,

once that done, funding is sought to pay the individual authors

this will not be a crowdsource book, but rather a more classic editorial and
authored process

my own issue is a time issue, I'm willing to spent time on the concept and
suggesting people,

if I do anything more it will be on the same basis as the other authors

the MoU as far as I understood merely says parties will advise each other in
projects, and help publicise projects
