Michel,

Not sure if this topic has ever been fully covered:  The transition from
hobbiest to P2P producer.  What is that transition?  Are there stages?  What
distinguishes one from the other, etc.  In other words, how does a Sam Rose
come to evolve?  If we could understand that, we could produce/encourage
more such people to go from Make Faires to P2P makers.
