Would it be ok to make the icons in the 'Partners' section link to the web pages themselves instead of to the file for that picture?
- Great idea. ~ I wonder how many of those groups have pages on the wiki already. I hope all of them. --Alex Rollin 21:24, 7 July 2010 (UTC)--Alex Rollin 21:24, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Absolute paths starting with www don't work

Hey, the absolute paths starting with http://www.p2pfoundation.net... don't work. They should be changed to http://p2pfoundation.net... or even better to relative paths to wiki pages. Example: try to click on Best P2P Essays - link 1 or 2. --Rzelnik 20:06, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

We study the impact of Peer to Peer technology and thought on society.

"You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete" - Buckminster Fuller [1]

Never doubt that a small group of committed citizens can change the world. - Margaret Mead [2]

Our aims

We function as a clearinghouse for open/free, participatory/p2p and commons-oriented initiatives.

We aim to be a pluralist network to document, research, and promote peer to peer alternatives. Our political aims could be summarized under the following maxims:

ending the destruction of the biosphere by abandoning the dangerous conceptions of pseudo-abundance in the natural world (i.e. based on the assumption that natural resources are infinite);
promoting free cultural exchange by abandoning the innovation-inhibiting conceptions of pseudo-scarcity in the cultural world (i.e. based on the assumption that the free flow of culture needs to be restricted through excessive copyrights etc...).
