P2P Foundation:Community Portal
Dear Visitors:
I would like to use this page to call for volunteers who would like to help The Foundation for P2P Alternatives become a better platform on P2P developments and as a place to link up with people sharing similar values about a more participatory future.
Even if you update a page of your choice only once a week, over time, your contribution is substantial. Multiply it with other contributors, and the effect is dramatic.
Wiki Wish List
- Developing and maintaining language-specific pages, which introduce the topic, and alert readers to resources in their language
- Developing country-specific pages: what's happening around P2P, participaton, the 'open' paradigm and the commons in your country?
- Working to make the lay-out of the Wiki much more user-friendly
- Developing a "News" page alerting visitors to new developments, in a way that is attractive to read
- Formalising the existing encyclopedia entries, in a way that is compatible with the Wikipedia format
- See how our own encyclopedia and Wikipedia can enrich each other.
- Translators: I would really love to have the basic CTheory essay (in English), or Revue du Mauss essay, both good summaries, translated into many different languages
- Maintain an agenda of P2P-related events worldwide
- Match every encyclopedia article with a 1) Wikipedia article; 2) associated books; 3) recommended blogs and websites
- Work on the internal referrals, i.e. matching the encyclopedia articles with the who's who, the podcasts and webcasts, other topics, etc...
- figure out if MediaWiki can put Recent Changes on the side of the front page.
- help with making this standard MediaWiki look different, nicer. (tweaking colors,etc.]
- Write a page on naming conventions. Currently people are named two ways - for refernece LastName, FirstName and for editing the wiki FirstInitialLastName. For working within the wiki however, people will not be writing LastName, FirstName, too difficult. Maybe FirstInitialLastName, but more naturally is just your name. MarkDilley

Miscellaneous
These links were here already; the member list is pretty useless, full of the names of attempted spammers. Is there any way to list only the real members?
